We had a wonderfull stay at Shangrila. We had fantastic weather which always makes it easier but spent most of our time in the apartment sitting on balcony. While away we spent many hours of various boat and steam train trips. The large garage made a big difference. We are also fitter after the steps up and down but so easy to the sea front. We swam every day in the sea too. I would highly recommend and even better if your lucky to have the weather we did. Communication was also very good when entering and leaving etc.Thanks again

Excellent accommodation, very clean, everything you need is there and having a garage to use is a great bonus. Would thoroughly recommend and the view from the balcony is breathtaking. One thing to add, wear shoes on the balcony on hot days as the tiles are scorching hot but apart from that everything and more was catered for.
