Staff was lovely, letting us check in early (1pm). The room was adequate. Have had to get some extra stuff as it wasn’t facilitated for 3 guests to begin with. We’ve left feedback for the staff, won’t get into it as they know what they can improve on.

The location was excellent. The room set out was just what we wanted for 5 Adults. We only had one minor problem was the AC wasn't working but it was one of those things that can be fixed.

This is a great place to stay if your holiday is all about the beach, shopping and eating great food. The rooms were very clean, tidy and comfortable. The staff were very accomodating, friendly and available. Better than some of the much more costly accomodation nearby. We'll definitely be back.
