Staff were polite, friendly and helpful throughout our stay. They were a real positive to the hotel. Breakfast was very good, although a bigger range might be useful. You order from a menu. It might be nice to have the breakfast included in the price. Lovely access to the beach. Rooms were well equipped and we had a sea view which was lovely. The rooms suffer from noise issues from guests, just not enough sound proofing. Overall a good stay, thanks to the staff.

A disaster with the dining room. I went down for information about the menu (my child has food allergies) and spoke to a very friendly staff member, When it came time to order we selected Halibut/risotto dish for myself and the Halibut fish and chips for my child (as it was reported to not have dairy, soy, or sugar). Something that is possible since we had it a couple of times later on the trip. My dish arrived looking ok and the second dish arrived as an unadorned plate of fries with a tiny piece of fish grilled on top. I asked what happened to the fish and chips and they said they couldn’t guarantee with certainty that there wasn’t diary in it. It looked like something no one should have sent from a kitchen to a diner. I said we could change to grilled halibut steak and vegetables but then was told they were out of halibut. They eventually brought a rather sad looking piece of grilled chicken with few vegetables. When the bill arrived I was charged for my dish and the two failed attempts from the kitchen. Insult to injury - my risotto was nearly inedible. The tomatoes in the dish had been dried (were large) and like rubber. Since this was the first night of a two week trip it certainly wasn’t a good beginning. One night was plenty.

Room smelt musty our floor had a lot of dogs . I experienced some allergies and was maybe cause by the mustiness or was the room rented by pple with pets . The bed was hard use to pillow top.

Did not meet expectations. The rooms are noisy, you can hear everything in the hallway. The beds are not comfortable and lumpy, with rough sheets and pillows that appear smaller than a standard size. Pool area outdoors is small. Beach access is very rocky. Limited seating outside. Property is to be non-smoking but this is not enforced. Would not stay again and do not recommend.
