Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a wonderful location, just off the seafront, with beautiful views and excellent bathrooms. The rooms are comfortable, and the facilities are great, but the breakfast could be improved. Overall, a good value for money stay.
This hotel gives you the best of both worlds - it's close to everything but still offers peace and quiet. The rooms are lovely, but the dining options are slightly limited. The staff is great, and the location is superb with amazing sea views. The facilities are good, but there are a few drawbacks with the pricing.
I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredible with excellent bathrooms, great facilities, and a beautiful view. The service was outstanding, and they even had pet amenities available. The location was perfect, just off the seafront and within walking distance of the water meadows and the beach. The dining experience was top-notch with delicious homemade jams and fresh bread. The facilities were impressive, making my stay truly enjoyable.
