Comfortable, Spacious Apartment
We were a group of golfers and we had a very pleasant stay at Unit 13, Dolphin Cove. When staying in this apartment, do take basic provisions. If not, there is a supermarket a block away.

We enjoyed our stay. Basic necessities like soap and shampoo should have been provided.
The property is accessible to the beach and local stores and cafes. It was well lit. We enjoyed the stay. Please inform future visitors that soap, shampoo and conditioners are BYO.

Review
Nice big place except you have to make your own beds upon arrival. And the spa hasn't been working for the last few years I have been using the room on an annual trip. Thought it would be fixed by now. Nothing for us to clean up dishes like sponges and washing detergent. Not much bog roll. Also the bbq wasn't really clean either. Good view though and good location.

Large place for a big group. Very centrally located to everything.
An issue with the bathroom door that was faulty. Annoying not having basic things in the apartment like a bin, bin liners, cleaning products to clean bbq etc if they have to be done by the guest who is only there two nights.
Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2020

Mixed Success
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We booked this place as an ideal pad for a group of mature gents needing some respite from family life. Booking & key pick up was easy.Upon arrival we discovered there weren't any bed sheets and one room even had a dirty set shoved in the cupboard. By this time it was after office hours and it took a number of phone calls to reach someone, who in turn contacted the cleaner who dropped off a big bag of clean laundry and we had to make the beds ourselves.It's quite a large apartment, plenty of space for what we wanted. There does need to be some money spent on the place (missing/broken vertical blinds, water damage, spa not working (but to be fair, we were forewarned), but overall it was comfortable.Pros:* Spacious* Kitchen well (enough) appointed* Easy key pickup/drop off and onsite parking* Air conditioned* Easy walk to pretty much anything (shops/cafes etc)Cons:* One roll of bogroll per bathroom (it's not 2020 anymore!) - not a cost thing, just inconvenient.* No linen upon arrival* BBQ area is right next to the adjacent unit's outdoor area and not terribly well screened.
