Excellent Stay Near the Marina

quiet locationhelpful advicegreat pooluncomfortable bed
I appreciated the location near the marina. The walk to town took only five minutes. Jamie and Sally provided helpful advice regarding local trips. The apartment offered everything I needed, and the views proved fantastic. The apartment felt very comfy and tidy. The pool was also great.
The bed and the pillow were not comfortable. The morning noise from boats leaving the marina was noticeable.

The location was superb! it was a short, flat walk to the main areas, avoiding any hills. the harbour view was particularly enjoyable, offering a tranquil scene. The apartment itself was modern. i appreciated the proximity to the boat tour terminal. It made our excursions very convenient.
the morning boat departures created some early noise.
