If your last visit here was a while ago, the transport has moved on further than the city has. There is a light rail now, which opened in 2023, and the train in from the airport has become the normal way to arr…

All seven apartments are in the same building, 200m from the beach, and every one of them has a kitchen, air conditioning and a washing machine. What differs is the size, the number of bedrooms, and how many pe…

Booking sites file us under "hotel" because their forms have a limited number of boxes. We aren't one, and you notice on the first evening. There's no front desk to walk up to, no restaurant downstairs, nobody…
