#### Absolutely Amazing

Nice property within a short drive from the airport in an area being redeveloped with easy access to the main road and shops. Ocean view and sounds from the patio and beautiful walk along the sea wall right outside the patio door with access to restaurants and beach within a 2 to 5 min walk. Great layout of the property both indoor and outdoors and very attentive and caring property manager. Absolutely Amazing!
