23 Waves is an impressive duplex apartment, living and kitchen area on the 4th floor. We love the balcony, well furnished with loungers and chairs, great for watching the goings on in the bay! We appreciated the addition of the new bench, well placed for the shade in the afternoon. Two spacious bedrooms on the third floor - plenty of space for our Read morefamily with older teens. Surf store and showers on the ground floor are great for washing the sand off on the way back from the beach. This was our 3rd stay at 23 Waves and we will definitely return. Hide
