5th comment: Having two bathrooms was a great plus for our requirements. May 2008.
6th comment: Although the weather was somewhat changeable, we had a good time without getting too soaked too often but the best bit was obviously waking up in the morning and seeing that view and all the boats as well as gazing at it during darkness. I would love to own one myself if one was available. Aug 2007.
7th comment: First class apartment and excellent location. Sept 2006.
8th comment: The views from the apartment were excellent especially the sunsets over the islands. We found the apartment to be well furnished and supplied with sufficient equipment. Also we had the added bonus of not having a coin meter for the electric. The lift to the apartments was much appreciated especially for carrying the luggage. July 2006.
