"Excellent resort"

"What a wonderful place! I had a great stay "

"Great facility and service! Slow time of year so very quiet"

"Clean, comfortable room with a great sea view. Welcoming staff, and a good breakfast. Appreciated the log fire in the lounge in the evening. Hotel is a little dated and the only negative was the rather strong air freshener. Fabulous location makes up for that."

"This was my second stay, returning after three years and my stay was even better than the first. The staff were superb. There was a weather incident upcoming during my stay and they were very knowledgeable. Also it was just nice to talk about living there rather than the usual hostel talk. The beds were good and comfortable. Having a curtain really shuts you away and gives a good sleep. So very happy for that. Always loved the breakfast spread. It's so unique and if you need a reason to stay here, this is a good one."

"Really enjoyed the space and the backyard - good location and walking distance to the beach and tons of restaurants. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to cook which is always nice, they even allowed you to use their washer which is great especially being on long trips! The ONLY I wouldn't even say negative (this is always up to preference) is the beds were very hard. "

"It was clean. Staff was very friendly."
