Our place is on the ground floor with a spacious porch for meals and lounging. The pool is a mere 50 steps from the porch and you can get your toes in the sand with only 80 steps. The apartment comes with a housekeeper and cook so you don't need to worry about anything other than relaxing. You may order a massage anytime you like. There is air-conditioning in the rooms and an inverter to ensure that your electricity supply is not disturbed during power outages.
