A fantastic beach side property, you could not be closer to the beach unless you were standing on it! The pic was a little misleading in that it looks as though the balcony is directly on to the sand but it is about 10ft above - we didn't realise there was quite a drop and we had a 2yr old and 4yr old with us so it meant keeping the balcony closed at all times as its not protected. I have also had to feedback about the cleanliness of the apartment. The owners are definitely being let down by the contractors that are cleaning the apartment, as the standard was unacceptable; dirty cupboards, furniture not cleaned down, rugs not hoovered, old hairs (that were not ours!) in places that should have been cleaned, windows caked in bird filth, to name but a few of the issues. I feel that the apartment itself needs a very good refresh, it was old and grubby in many places, but in terms of its location you really are winning. There is a laundry which is brilliant given that most things get sandy! Albeit you have to pay at least £5 per wash. If the owners were to do a refresh on the property and also ensure the cleanliness of the apartment then we would definitely visit again.
