It's a gorgeous hotel with essential oils diffusing as you walk in and fresh iced tea. The walk around the hotel to our room was just gorgeous with a boating theme. The stairs to get to our room were quite narrow so carrying a suitcase up them was slightly difficult but it was manageable, if you were staying for a week im not sure you'd make it up the stairs. We had a cosy double which was perfect however, the bathroom definitely needed an upgrade, the water pressure was not the best in the tap or shower
Our room was a little disappointing this time, enamel bath with a few chips, one day no housekeeping. Need to do something about the milk supplied as there isn’t a fridge, so milk curdled in heat and therefore not useable anyway. Think it’s about time a very small fridge is put in all rooms, there was room for one. Staff are really great, especially Fred at breakfast, went above and beyond the service we expected😀
The hotel itself was great, food was great. We had an issue where we had no working lights in our room of an evening and were given no solution. Duty manager has offered a refund but as of today, no one has contacted me despite me calling and emailing daily since checking out on 14/07/2025.
Great hotel staff friendly & helpful. Hotel has great facilities and is close to beach. Falmouth town can be walked to or short taxi ride away . Great base to head out from
Lovely spa, great breakfast and cocktails, room size good. Room has complementary milk/tea coffee although the milk size is very small. Pillows not great, but overall a really nice place to stay.

Disliked: Amenities
List is long where this hotel can improve.
1. There is an extra cost for everything ..Even for simple hot drinks like cappuccino and espresso in the breakfast. Even before we started the b'fast, the staff came with the bill and asked us to pay. What was the point of the pre-auth that was taken at the time of check in???
2. Hot tub and swimming pool shown in the picture (during the booking path) are NOT included in the charges but extra charges which you find out when you reach the hotel.
3. Free swimming pool has restricted time for kids from 9-12 and and couple of hours in the evening. Cannot enjoy pool with kids with restricted times.
4. Poor breakfast service. Everything is cost cutting. NO Big plates in the buffet. No monitoring by staff to refill milk or utensils. Plus more issues....
5. We booked large luxury category king room with sun deck. Nothing like the picture. Disappointed as no view and infact no privacy too.
6. Untrained staff at the reception. Staff is polite but do no even know half of the information about the resort. When checked out , I asked if the pre-auth would fall automatically and she did not even know what Pre-Auth is. Again all cost cutting by not hiring experienced professionals.
7. No one answers the call at the reception. Tried 3 times as A/C in room was making noise and few bugs were seen on the bed. No courtesy to reply back to the call.
From the moment we entered the check in lobby we felt welcomed and relaxed. Beautiful hotel grounds, wonderful staff, everyone very hardworking and attentive.
We stayed in the beach house in a luxury king room with sun deck and it was beautiful, lovely sea views, big room, excellent amenities.
We visited the health club, used the swimming pool. Pool towels are included for hotel guests.
Our only complaint is we didn’t stay longer, we will be booking again, this time staying for 2 nights and booking the spa.
A truly wonderful stay and a little gem of a hotel nestled in impressive gardens

Just stayed a night in what should have been a great experience but was unfortunately ruined by the complete incompetence of the hotels restaurants. Waited 50 minutes for breakfast which never arrived having waited 20 minutes in the restaurant the night before to even be asked if we like something to drink.
When my starter finally arrived which was tomato and buffalo mozzarella, the mozzarella was missing. When I raised this it was recified but the chef looked bemusec by my complaint even though he'd failed to plate 50% of the meal.
Breakfast room rumour was the main chef was off and someone was filling in. My advice would be check the kitchen roster before booking.
Such a shame as the hotel is stunning with topnotch rooms plus the bar staff were excellent!
beautiful hotel, the grounds are so relaxing, and so many different areas to sit.
Staff extremely friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
Having pool and gym facilities on site was great.
30 second walk and you are on the beach.
Lovely hotel. All staff really friendly and helpful. Great room with sundeck. It was a real suntrap and great views out to sea. Enjoyed the spa facilities.
Beautiful hotel, perfect location, arrived early so easy to park. Room wasn’t ready which was understandable as we were early, but the guy checked us in, when we returned many hours later to get our key we had been booked into a single! It felt like it was then rushed to give us a new room and felt like we got whatever was left. The room was clean but was very noisy and although tea/ coffee facilities were in the room the milk was off, which was a real disappointment after a long day.
