Settle into the dedicated workspace to read, write, or catch up on emails. Cook up a storm in the fully renovated kitchen, equipped with an oven, dishwasher, microwave and a coffee machine. Gather at the large dining table and share a feast with family or friends while admiring the park views just beyond the glass.

The layout of the property made it very comfortable for all the guests and access to beach, restaurants and the shopping centre was a "rock throw" away. ##### Mark S.
