Location is close to the beach, there are many amenities and kitchen is fully stocked.
Unfortunately property is not holiday only, there are residents as well, some of which are smokers and the cigarette smell can be felt if you're a non-smoker.

This is a nice little place in a nice area 1 block away from the beach.
The property is a serviced appartment style rather than a hotel. So be prepared to BYO shampoo and body soap(i wish we knew that before getting there).
There is also a fully equiped kitchen however it's BYO dishwasher detergent as well to wash the kitchen ware after use.
The property manager was nice enough to give us washing powder so we can do our laundry, that was nice.

Clifton Sands was delightful, with just the right blend of privacy, view, comfort and wildlife to make our stay very enjoyable and very affordable. When we drove in and saw all those lovely Bougainvillea hanging baskets we knew that we would be taken care of well, and we were.

Linda the proprietor was very friendly and helpful, pool was service daily and maintained, perhaps servicing the apartments price should be included with booking rather than extra charge. Close to public transport and shopping Village.
