8/10 Very good

The receptionist was lovely and we felt very welcomed and informed on arrival. We stayed in a superior room with sea view, the room was clean but could do with a few extras to make it feel more comfortable. For example a headboard for the bed, a higher table for the chairs so that you could eat at and a small fridge would have been useful. Overall, we had a lovely stay, brilliant sea views, location was lovely and a short walk along the sea to the town and we would return!

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

This was a lovely relaxing overnight stay at the end of my holiday. I had a wonderful sea view from my spacious room on the top floor, which had a large fan that quietly delivered a cooling movement of air during the night. It was only a 5-minute walk to the beach for a swim. In the early evening it was lovely to sit & relax in the garden area with no pressure to buy a drink from the bar. The shower was powerful with a large head and a handy second hand held showerhead.

Great stay in the family room with our teenage boys. Lovely room and great shower. Hot breakfast to order was very nice and plenty of coffee and cold breakfast options. Enjoyed the pool, jacuzzi and sauna and tried the cold water did in the sea which was encouraged and a cold experience. All staff very nice and great service throughout. Would love to return in future. Thank you.

Beautiful sea view room. The only downside to this hotel was that it has low water pressure in the shower and no drinking water in the room and had to go to the bar if you wanted any.
