Good hotel ruined by the staff.

Gate to hotel locked at 11:00 pm & no warning so had to wait 45 minutes while the night manager discovered there was another gate he could open from reception to allow us access. He had not been trained. Service in the restaurant at breakfast was non existant. Staff just ignored you & no one asked if we wanted beverages. We had to go and grab them to get served. A hotel that is run by an obviously incompetent Manager

A three star experience from a four star hotel

The position of this hotel is perfect but the service isn’t great. One of the poorest welcomes ever given. We were handed our key and sent to our room, not given any information at all- where breakfast was, times, how to get to the beach etc (no information in room either). We were given the impression that Expedia clients were inferior. Offers free parking but this is valet parking off site so your car has to be requested in advance. Breakfast basic for a four star establishment, tinned fruit salad. Room very basic but kept clean by house staff. Excellent position with outstanding lifeguard who was attentive and helpful- the reception staff could learn a lot from him.
