Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Great location and very nice roof terrace.
Negative: We stayed in this apartment with 5 people. There were 2 double bedrooms and a sofa bed. Two of us slept on the sofa bed and it was quite uncomfortable. Also (of course) if people sleep in the living room that room is no longer available for the rest of the group. I would say this apartment is suitable for no more than 4.
Summary: Great location on a beautiful beach.
