Rough Guide
"Fitness centre, saltwater pool and wireless internet, all in a snappy location that overlooks the harbour. A bit overpriced, but a good spot."

This property has a swimming pool but it is worth noting that it is a lap pool attached to the fitness center and is not a children's recreational pool.
