We were so pleased the apartment was to such a high standard as we had to spend most of the week in it due to the extreme heat. It's in a lovely position and we had a thoroughly enjoyable time there.

This was a lovely apartment and so easy to access. The view was lovely with the passing wildlife and local life going on. The supermarkets near by should only be used for topping up last minute as theyre not cheap or abundant with items. Locals are lovely and theres just enough going on. Nice place to visit

Our third stay here and another excellent and relaxing holiday. Apartment was spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped with crockery, utensils etc. Perfectly situated for all eating establishments in West Bay and for visiting further afield if coming by car.
