Trinity Beach Club Holiday Apartments
The staff at the front desk were really helpful and friendly. The room was good but could have been cleaner (the fan in the lower bedroom was covered in dust). The pool and outdoor kitchen were very nice and we used them a lot.

Drift Palm Cove
Room was clean and tidy, disappointed that the towels only were replaced after 5 days but the bed sheep were not. No WiFi

Sea Change Beachfront Apartments
The ocean view was stunning, the rooms felt like home, welcoming and relaxing. The pool was great for cooling off and was never crowded. Highly recommend!
