We stayed at Drift 4101 for 10 nights recently. The apartment is at the rear of the complex overlooking a lovely tropical garden. The accommodation was clean and comfortable and all amenities worked well. Happy to recommend.
Beautifully presented property in an unbeatable location. We had a wonderful stay, thank you.
