Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were absolutely lovely and the room exceeded my expectations in terms of amenities, comfort and how it looked. Minor grumble - the security lights outside were on permanently and the black out blinds didn’t properly keep the light out - I like a pitch black room, but to be fair, security is more important.

After driving for 8 hours we eventually got to our hotel T 830 pm . The room was beautiful and spacious but no towels . When I called the onsite manager she personally delivered and we were very grateful for her prompt assistance and cannot fault the staff and service . It was relaxing and serene listening to the waves all night and I was super excited when I woke on the morning and saw the beautiful view.

Large clean modern room . Good location with beach

Room was upstairs and had lovely views of the beach. Large modern and updated room. Easy parking. The negative was, the hot water in the shower took at least 5 minutes to warm up, also the hand basin in the bathroom was tiny, could barely wash my hands. Overall, would stay here again.
