Reception staff pleasant and helpful. Apartment was perfect for our stay.....lots of room. Easy walk to club for dinner as unfortunately hotel restaurant no longer in operation. Closeness to beach and onsight parking also plus. Single bed mattresses were uncomfortable.....could feel springs. Children ended up sleeping in king bed with me. We did however enjoy our stay.
