My partner and I stayed in L'art des Amis very recently (August) and had a really wonderful stay in this lovely apartment. It was in a great location in a quiet area but close to the beach and numerous restaurants and only 15 minutes from the fab old town. The apartment itself was beautifully decorated with some very unique art which made it so very different to the hotels we have stayed in and it made it feel really personal. Being on the 6th floor the views from the balconies were amazing and it was so relaxing. The apartment had all the equipment you could ever need and the communication from the owners Frankie and Don was excellent as it was from Sara Jane from Prom Holiday. We have nothing but good things to say and we would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone looking to rent an apartment in this wonderful city.

Fabulous apartment
We recently spent a week at the apartment and absolutely loved it. We could not fault the apartment or location, they were both perfect. Communication with the owners, Don and Franklin and Sara Jane from the management company was excellent throughout. Just looking forward to the opportunity to return for another visit.

Excellent apartment…
...perfectly located on the top floor in the safe quiet area with a nice park and supermarket nearby, not mention multiple groceries and cafes on your short and pleasant walk to the beach. Very convenient and reliable payment method (online via credit card). Immediate owners’ responses to all our questions and inquires were outstanding. No hidden flaws, everything was exactly as advertised. We will definitely book this wonderful place again …
