    If I could give this a 11/10 I would in a heart beat. The photos actually don’t do the apartment justice! Every single part of it is perfection! The balcony, the kitchen, the rooftop, the private jacuzzi, the views, the list goes on. I will be back here as soon as I can!

    Perfect location, the space and comfort of the penthouse is ideal for those travelling as a family or the couple that just likes extra space. The styling is beautiful very beach chic and the bedding very comfortable. Nicole had thought of everything but if you need anything at all she is very easy to get in contact with. Overall it was such a great stay! We would definitely stay again and recommend to others. The room is a combination of the apartment and the studio with the spa on the veranda. Plus a rooftop bbq area with a hot tub!
