Costantiana Beach Apt is a good apartment hotel situated in a quite area not so far from de city center only from a 15 minute walk. I liked because is close to the beach and not so crowded. I recommend 🙂 🙂
Mrs. Corina Catrina ( TripAdvisor )
We spent only one day at this hotel, but it was enough to see that it has a very friendly and helpful staff, good facilities and self-catering, and a very good position to Mackenzie Beach. It is also close to the airport, the city and Salt Lake. Here, the beach season lasts until end of October.
