“Idyllic getaway with views of the water, yachts and early morning canoeing paired with comfy living”
The perfect location for Sundowners or early morning Coffee on the wrap-around balcony! With a vast selection of restaurants within walking distance, this is definitely a holiday location to remember.

Problem was that we couldn't reach anybody under the contact tel numbers. Finally a helpful neighbour made it happen to get the key of the Aptm. No water heater and no gas for the stove. Otherwise no complaints
