Firstly, great communication with the host with clear instructions on arrival and departure.
You can't help but notice the place as you drive in to Sunset beach, "towering" over the other properties.
The lift works well, and the views from the main deck, bedroom levels and top entertainment deck are unparalleled. Sunrise and sunsets are simply stunning. The kitchen is well equipped and the bathrooms are clean and function well (I had wondered what they would be like being so far up!). The main bedrooms are spacious and light, and the beds are very comfortable. The third bedroom, on the ground floor, feels a bit distant from the main tower rooms, but it suited my teenage son. The fourth bedroom (the pirate room) is exceptionally small, and quite claustrophobic, and there isn't really much space to unpack clothes etc, but this wasn't a major issue. The provision of bikes in the garage was really nice, albeit a little rusty - but pedalling along the beach front path was great fun, and there are cool cafes, some with live music, a few miles down. Plenty of food options locally and a short drive away. We also did Disney from here, which was only a 30 minute drive. The only slight negative for me was the road noise - the tower is right by highway 1, and the windows do not always close fully. But we quickly adjusted to this, and it does mean that at night, when the traffic dies off, you can hear the sea.
I am so pleased we chose to stay here - a truly memorable place.
