This is a nice place to stay. The Tides is particular, but the hostess helped walk us through checkin details. The apartment was clean upon arrival. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking and dining in, including tea and basic seasoning. The rooms were nice with modern furniture. Beds were comfortable, though not luxurious. The room with the King bed had low lighting, lacked wall decore, and the sound from the street was more audible. Vanessa took care to be very responsive. She responded within ten minutes or so anytime we called or texted. She took care to help us with extra details, bringing over an extra lamp for the King bedroom and providing us will parental control password to access all content on the televisions. The view of the canal was nice and offered a great city viewing of the New Year fireworks on the balcony. The shared pool is a heated saltwater pool, which is quite nice. The beach and grounds are nicely kept up. It was a wonderful getaway.
