Perfect for our 1st holiday with new baby! Reviewed by:Mr & Mrs Baskill Reviewed on: 12/12/2008 for their stay in 2/09/2008
We had a fantastic holiday at the Duquesa Village apartment. The apartment was fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We stayed with a small child and you had even provided plastic cups and plates. Everything was clean, tidy and in good working order. The standard of the furnishings was excellent.
The poolside area was clean and safe and had a covered area which was great for little children to play under in the hot summer sun. A car is essential in this area as the apartment is at the top of a steep hill. Duquesa port is only 5 mins away in the car, and is full of great places to eat and drink. Enjoy your holiday!
