I loved the quality of the room and resort facilities. I also loved the free on-site parking. Best of all was the fact the resort is a 2 minute walk to the dog beach and not far from the main beach and shops.

Great hotel, great location if you want a bit of peace and quiet. Would have liked the restaurant to be open a bit later - 8pm for last orders is a bit early (but maybe that’s a European thing?)

We were unable to charge our Tesla!! Understaffed on the desk/ phone, yet at what was a very ordinary breakfast. A decent coffee wasn't included with breakfast also only instant or plunger coffee in the rooms. The Table Top at breakfast, wobbled like a ship in a storm! The Restaurant (food) not available on a Tuesday evening. Both receptionists on book in and check out were excellent with help and advice. Dont thonk that we would bother staying here again unless everything else in the area is booked out. Have given it 3 shots now. Its all too hard.
