Toward the rear, there are two bedrooms: a double room with a private bathroom, and a twin room with a separate shower room. Additionally, a convenient guest WC completes the layout.

A unique feature of the apartment is its internal atrium, offering a private indoor-outdoor space perfect for al fresco dining in the comfort of your own home. The vast shared swimming pool, surrounded by decking and sun loungers, is ideal for refreshing morning swims or relaxing after a day at the beach. There’s also a small front patio furnished with a cozy table and chairs—an inviting spot to enjoy evening sundowners.

Explore charming, cobbled streets, riverside cafés, and an excellent choice of restaurants lining both sides of the river. The atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, and family-oriented. A ferry ride away lies the beautiful island beach, easily reachable without the need for a car.

ACCESS & PARKING
Guests have full access to all advertised areas and facilities. Access to the apartment can be made by avoiding the main entrance and using a side entrance without stairs by the gym.
