Very good

Great property but a few things could do with a repair or replacement but very great. We had some very noisy neighbours but that is not the hotel’s fault
Rooms were exceptionally clean, decor was as new. Linens were fresh and clean, plenty of towells etc. Roos smelt fresh and wholesome. We will be returning soon
We were in a pre fab unit off the main building which was a bit disappointing. Therefore view of the car park rather than the sea. Condition of everything was just ok.

Was ok but our room was through the hotel laundry and it was not closed at 7pm and was still getting used at 9pm so not very much privacy so abit disappointed on where the room is situated.
Floor to ceiling windows (2 bed apartment) with a view of boats, people, bikes, dogs coming and going. Kept my Dad occupied for hours, then had the birds to talk to on the balcony downstairs. Recommended and would stay again.
the bathroom drains were very slow was the only problem. shower just about overflowed everywhere.

Accommodation was good. Booked online from photos. On arrival was offered a different type of room in the middle of the car park. Thankfully the receptionist was considerate and gave us the room we thought we had booked.
Very convenient location and great view from the upper levels. Could have been cleaner, the bin had not been emptied in the bathroom from the previous occupants.. nice staff
Enjoyed our stay clean and quiet the only thing I would suggest would be signage showing how to find the restaurant as it shows the menu on a wall by the round building so you assume it’s through the doors right there but it’s not you walk right round the other side no biggy but we weren’t the only family looking and wondering
Meal was awesome would stay there again
