We have stayed on a few occasions and enjoyed the hotel. This time we experienced a room near noisy ventilation system which made it very difficult to sleep. Plus mattress was past its best.

The pool, sauna & jacuzzi were definitely the highlights for me. It's also so nice to be minutes away from the seafront to enjoy watching the sunrise as well as a walk in the night to observe the beautiful Christmas lights.

Loved our stay here! Location was the main perk. Our room wasn’t quite ready on our arrival so we got a complementary drink in the bar. Breakfast was delicious and plenty of selection. Great service throughout! We also made full use of the swimming pool, jacuzzi and sauna which was a real plus!! Just book your slot and you get it all to yourselves. We only stayed one night, would love to stay longer next time!

Internet good., staff is very nice, the bar downstairs is nice and handy for a drink, bed comfortable and pillows., shower Very good, heating nice and adjustable. We had supper once in the restaurant, it was good but I wasn't impressed. No face towel here (or flannel). We asked. Bring your own, just bath towels. Parking: good if you come with a little car , in Nov. and not Friday or Saturday night. Not enough place, hard to turn around, super small! Must be terrible in high season. I would forget it.
