I had a mixed experience at Contessa Holiday Apartments. The location was definitely a highlight, being close to the beach and local eateries. However, the apartment I stayed in was quite dated and had several maintenance issues, which was disappointing. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful, which made my stay a bit more pleasant.
