Excellent location! Amazing sized apartment. It was a pity the indoor pool was closed for maintenance and one of the lifts was out of action. This was great value for the money spent.

We've been coming to Imperial surf for over 20 years. Love the location. Good to see some of the rooms have been updated and it looks as if the common areas are slowly being worked on too (which is needed).

Superb beach view - If the heatpump does not work then you need to switch the external unit in the balcony off and on again for it to start working - it make a big noise in the beginning but then settles down.
