    “Waterfront Apartment”

    It doesn't get much better than this in my opinion, everything you need in town is a short walk and if you're a keen swimmer like me Kaputian Beach is about a 200m swim. The top floor apartment has the best view, is quiet and very comfortable. I could easily live here during my time off.
