A lovely ocean side resort. Spectacular views and an easy walk into town along the waterside. The surrounding boardwalks have amazing views and feel very safe. Our booking included a continental breakfast which had a good range of cereals, danishes, yoghurt, fruit, toast/breads, juice/coffee. It was lovely but by day 3-5 I was craving variety and a cooked breakfast. Pack a warm jumper as it can be cool in the morning when having breakfast when it is windy (July). We will definitely return. Such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the view

Disliked: Staff & service

Good rooms but lacking service

Stay was good due to room with view, however missing things such as in-room minibar, and hotel service was not great - lacking in comparison to other hotels we normally stay in at this price range. Pool unheated. Also breakfast is continental only unless you are prepared to pay extra. Should include eggs and bacon without paying extra at the room rate.

The location is great, but the rooms are a bit run down with uncomfortable beds and cheap pillows. The manual keys made me feel like I was in a motel. Trying to pass off as a high end resort but on a shoe string. The restaurant was very average and charged as if they had a Michelin Star. We checked out 2 hours late and they charged us an extra night for both rooms on a Monday night during the shoulder season.
