    The pillows need an upgrade, but the beds were soooo comfy!

    OMG this apartment was something else! The views are incredible and the place was HUGE! We travelled with our two year old who equally loved the place. We hope to stay again next year and will be recommending to any one who asks!

    Funky apartment with fantastic views of the Harbour. Easy walk into town. Very comfortable bed and very spacious. All modern tech. Everything has been thought off. Went out of season, so not too many places open. Had a lovely meal at the local Italian Giovani and Luca. Lovely seaside resort, Would come back in season to have a proper explore.

    Kitchen knives needed to be sharper and there wasn't a measuring jug . Also the water didn't run away in the shower very well. Perhaps the instructions for the appliances could be left out as we didn't find them till later.

    Location was fantastic. The apartment was spacious . The views were fantastic. There were king sized beds in both of the bedrooms which were comfortable . We loved it .

    There was not anything that we did not like about the apartment.

    Amazing penthouse apartment that overlooks the sea and harbour. Very modern and everything you need for a stay away from home. I especially loved the bath. Beds were lovely and comfy. The apartment is very spacious. Photos don’t do it justice.

    Rooms and ambiance really excellent - however little touches like a coffee machine or similar, quality of bedding could and suggest should have been a little better - being picky as overall the penthouse is a very good place to stay

    Really good property excellent layout, fantastic feel and look of the place and a good location to base yourself from would recommend to others definitely

    What's not to like?

    We loved relaxing in the spacious, stylish and comfortable apartment with its sweeping views and enjoyed strolling down to the pretty harbour area. Woolocome beach was a short drive and the perfect place to take the kids on a sunny day.

    Delightful, modern cliff-top penthouse apartment with parking

    Not quite as clean as expected, with a dirty sock found behind a sofa and dirty grouting in the en suite. Not only were the curtains in the bedroom translucent but they were secured by Velcro and fell down a couple of times. A blackout blind would have done wonders. The key lockbox is directly above a 10ft drop and in the dark was a bit fiddly - not sure how you would get the keys back if fumbled.

    Stunning location overlooking the harbour. A beautifully-appointed top floor apartment, modern décor and even milk in the fridge on arrival. Shower was powerful and hot-as-you-like, beds were soft, internet was quick, and all appliances worked nicely. Plenty of crockery and cutlery (although we used little) and ample room for two couples to coexist comfortably. We would definitely stay again.

    The penthouse was beautiful and very well equipped towels were left in the bath from previous people and when my husband told Mike they were very apologetic and gave us 2 bottles of wine which was very kind
