This flat is on the 5th floor,but really 7th floor as bottom 2 floors are for maintenance, spectacular views from the very small balcony, nice spacious flat but sadly neglected. Two wall sockets in kitchen not working, kettle, toaster plugged into extension. Mixer tap loose in big hole and everytime I used it I thought it would fall off, of 10 kitchen units only 1 has door, Shower room wall bracket missing meaning you have to hold shower, very difficult in small shower with curtain. Lock on patio doors broken, when I complained to owner, he said that he had deliberately removed shower bracket from wall as most people like it that way!! Also he had broken lock on patio doors in case anyone got locked out on veranda!
Curtain pole in main bedroom fell off the wall the first day we were there and my husband repaired it.
On the plus side, the way the bedrooms are situated gives very good privacy if there are two couples, the pool is the biggest I have seen with lovely gardens and trees for shade, very well maintained and has a lifeguard there constantly. Very secure and private, and very safe if you have children. A supermarket just outside gate and a few other shops, just round the corner a square with several shops, bars and restaurants, just a few minutes walk to the main market on Tuesdays. Very central, about 10 mins walk to beach and marina. The owner was helpful,came the second week with a maid and changed sheets and did the cleaning. A few minor repairs would make this apartment a much more pleasant experience.
