This Discovery Bay apartment has great views of the bay, and is a perfect vantage point for viewing next door's Disneyland fireworks (we did for 2 nights). Its floor area is considered above average for a HK apartment, and actually twice the size of an average HK hotel club-room. For our party of 5, it's perfect. Nick's panoramic shots of HK are tastefully done, and proudly displayed on walls in the apartment.
In downtown hotels, that buzz and hum is all pervasive even in wee hours of the morning. At DB, it's quiet the whole day except for waves clashing against the shoreline below our apartment. We find it great for recuperating from a hectic day in Kowloon and HK island. Once you get the hang of the internal shuttle bus system, moving around is easy. These buses are in sync with both the MTR trains and the ferry (between DB pier and Central pier). We recommend using MTR to get to HK and Kowloon, as it's faster and cheaper than ferry. In all it takes about an hour to get from DB to HK and Kowloon. For Disneyland, Tung Chung and Ngong Ping, the journey is much shorter.
Within the apartment, everything works as advertised. We love the convenience of the keyless door entry system. We greatly appreciate the breakfast food pack (with lots of fruits) to tide us through the first morning after we landed. Potable water is provided via a mineral filter.
Last but not least, the hosts, Annie and Nick, are way cool people. Nick waited patiently as our flight was delayed for more than 3-hours; was almost midnight when he was done briefing and checking we would not lock ourselves out. Annie graciously re-scheduled her cleaning crews to accomodate our late checkout request. It was a memorable stay.
