I really enjoyed my stay at Focus Apartments, thanks to its spacious layout and stunning ocean view. The location was unbeatable, right across the street from the beach and close to shops and nightlife. Unfortunately, I did encounter some cleanliness issues, including dusty ceiling fans and an unpleasant smell in the ensuite bathroom. Overall, it was good value for my family, but I wished the rooms were checked more thoroughly before our arrival.

I had an enjoyable stay at Focus Apartments, primarily due to the stunning beach location and the spacious apartment with fantastic views.
