Our beach holiday

Alby Maidenhead, Berkshire
Review Submitted: September 17, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
The apartment was very clean and comfortable. It was a good base from which to explore the local area and easy to find from the description. We took a couple of things with us for the children to play with at the beach (bucket & spade), but it was really nice to discover that there was already a selection of beach equipment there, including beach towels!! Most of all the children absolutely loved the green inflatable crocodile, which they had hours of fun with at the beach. We knew that the proprety didn't have a pool, and that would have been the icing on the cake, but we were more interested in the local beach (Vau) which was walking distance and very preaty. We would certainly consider returning in the future, and would have no hesitation in recommending your apartment to other potential holiday makers. No hick-ups at all; Maria was waiting for us on arrival and very helpful, making herself available should we have the need.
