There is no private residential building on the seaside so close to town. The apartment is located within walking distance of the city centre and with frequent local bus service - including a nearby stop of the Aerobus to and from the airport.

No car needed for some guests. Bicycles can be rented for mostly level rides along parts of the main Estrada Monumental into town or out to the black sandy beach of Praia Formosa.
