A well priced studio apartment overlooking the water. Lovely comfy bed and peaceful setting. Close to cafes and restaurants and a short stroll to the main shopping area. More

We stayed one night with friends in an interconnecting room and suite. I had requested a water view and they placed us where we could see the sea as well as the port.

As a walk in we paid $170 for a 1 bedroom apartment which over looked the harbour. When we walked in we were impressed by the size of the apartment and the fixture and fittings, excellent cooking facilities and a dish washer and full laundry (washer and dryer) The colours of the furniture at first seemed a bit dated for...
