We felt that the location was very safe and secure as well as great location to any thing you could need or want. We rented a car and this location was in a central location to any part of the island. We did not feel we had to travel for a gym, grocery store, beach, shopping, tourists activities, hiking, sunrise/sunset. We liked the ceiling to floor windows in 50% of the apartment which lend to a great view of the New Years fireworks.
