Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Staff were indifferent and the place was very noisy with overseas guests making lots of noise and became aggressive when asked to be quiet. Parking is chaos and counter staff had very limited knowledge of the restaurant menu. We should have stayed at Saint Helens and would not go back to this property
The beach is right across the road as is the river. Our room had a beautiful view! I would highly recommend the queen rooms but if booking a family room they are downstairs and don’t have such great views and are quite squishy. The bed in the queen room was so comfy. Bistro is great and just downstairs as is the bar. Coffee shop across the road too. Love this place and will be back again and again!
Lovely views from room carpet needs to be replaced and walls painted bathroom very small no soap for shower and face washers road noise and from tennis court could be heard with the door closed
Nice comfy room, excellent location, loved it. Thanks

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Lovely clean & comfortable room.
We had an ocean view room which had an amazing view out to the sea and river mouth!
Minor downside was the room lighting was rather dim.
Fully recommend.
Room and view were great. Restaurant staff were excellent. Washer and dryer facilities really handy for travellers. Bunnies on the front lawn were so cute and amusing to watch.
What a great stay!
Our room was located on the top floor and had amazing views!
The room was spotlessly clean and had a great walk in shower.
Great value for money.
Have already booked again.
Lovely place with fantastic view from our room and balcony! Room was small but set up well. Property had great grounds, a swimming pool, easy parking and a restaurant with where enjoyed dining. All this for a great price! Only negative was that the bathroom, despite being renovated was extremely small.
