Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offered comfortable and spacious rooms, although a bit damp at times. The service was extremely kind and welcoming, with the staff being very helpful throughout our stay. The location was perfect, with stunning sea views and a great beach nearby, despite occasional noise from local activities. The dining experience was pleasant, with a lovely Christmas lunch, but some limitations in the menu. Overall, a wonderful stay with a few minor drawbacks.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were spacious with plenty of hot water and a well-stocked refreshment tray replenished daily, offering beautiful views of the beach but suffered from noise due to entertainment and limited parking, which was not made clear when booking. The location was perfect for watching stunning sunsets and served by convenient bus routes, although road noise could be a bit disrupting. The service was top-notch, with incredibly helpful and friendly staff, although the dining experience, while good quality, had some room for improvement. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the service was exceptional. The location was outstanding, right by the beach with easy access to transportation. The dining experience was decent, but there were some tasty options missing. Overall, a great value for a beachfront hotel.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms had a nice terrace with a view outside, but they were not located next to the lift, which was a bit of an inconvenience. The balcony was a plus, but the air conditioning was hot and loud. The service was excellent overall, with friendly and helpful staff, although there were some mishaps like lamb being repeatedly cooked incorrectly. The location was fantastic, although the road noise adjacent took away from the experience of watching the sea and sunset. The dining was a highlight, with delicious and beautifully presented dishes, making the disappointment in the gym and leisure facilities more noticeable.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms are a nice size with a lovely walk-in shower, and I enjoyed my breakfast at the bar. The comfort level is generally good, although it's worth noting that the standard rooms don't have air conditioning.
