Nicely laid out apartment overlooking the beach
Great location looking over the beach and not too close to the loud bar on the corner.
Unit was recently renovated and well laid out.
Pool area looked good but didn’t use it due to heavy rain on our stay.
The unit had a beautiful view of Trinity beach, great access to the beach, close to restaurants, spacious modern rooms and amenities, very secure and private.
