“What stands out here is the location in West Beach, a block from the beach and within walking distance of the wharf and harbor. Individual units include kitchens, plus fireplaces and jetted tubs, but it's the year-round outdoor pool that seals the deal. For families or couples who like to self-cater with the option of a quick dip, this could be a solid choice.”
