"Très bien situé pour l'accès à tous les attraits, services et activités. L'appartement est super confortable avec tous les nécessaires dont ceux pour la plage. (boggie bord, chaises, parasol, glacière) En octobre 2026, le seul petit inconvénient ce sont les restes de débris sur la plage à côté du complexe (ouragan). La vue sur la mer et la terrasse invitent à la détente, wow!!!"
