Luxury Sky Retreat Condo Near Port City-City/Ocean Views-Fully Equipped 2 BD/2BT

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay here and really enjoyed the property. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and very well stocked with everything we needed. The swimming pool was a great bonus and was very well maintained. We especially appreciated having a fitness center with a fitness trainer available in the mornings to offer pointers and guidance. The location was also very convenient, with easy tuk-tuk rides to the mall and Port City.The host was very easy to deal with and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. It was also great to have someone onsite who was available to assist with anything we needed during our stay. Whenever we noticed an issue, the building staff was quick to respond and take care of it.There was some light construction activity since this is a brand-new building, but surprisingly, it did not disturb us at all. We had a very quiet and relaxing stay.Overall, we had a very pleasant experience and would happily stay here again. The combination of a comfortable apartment, great amenities, convenient location, and a responsive host and staff made this a great place to stay. We would definitely recommend it to others visiting the area."
