Apartment was right on the beach, couldn’t have asked for a better position. Beautiful views and in a great central position in the Entrance.However, it wasn’t very clean. Very dusty and furniture obviously isn’t moved to clean underneath ( even found a used bandaid under my bed amongst the dust). It is an older building but the apartment could use a good deep clean and a fresh coat of paint. Overall, had a good stay and thought it was good value for the cost .

Weekend away

My partner and I booked this place and I wish I looked at the other reviews first. It was quite dirty, there was a moldy blanket, but other than that the location was great and we had fun.

Absolute beachfront The Entrance

Wonderful position. Unit adequate facilities. Number of steps and steepness was a real issue, particularly with luggage. Would have been nice to have a small amount of teabags and coffee, milk on arrival

Fantastic location but overal cleanliness was appalling

The location is right on the beach and has fantastic views. The appartment was confortable. Our stay however wasn't pleasant at all: when we arrived, the bed linen in the cupboard were smelly, dirty and yellow. Same for the pillows. The cupboard was crowded with beach stuff and hadn't been cleaned at all. The bed overhead was dusty. When I checked under the bed (the overal cleanliness made me suspicious), I found dirty tissues, codoms and a ton of dust and fluff. The floor was dusty and sticky and kitchen cupboard were moldy and smelly. We contacted the property manager who sent the cleaning team straight away, but they were very denfensive saying it was the owner fault. That it doesn't matter how many time they clean the floor it was always sticky and if we wanted a cleaner place we should have spend more money and book somewhere else. We appreciate the owner effect to renovate the inside of the unit, we were just put off by the all arrival experience and the attitude of the leasing agent. We
