The good stuff - the garden and pool area are really beautiful and it's a lovely 5 minute walk to get down to the beach. We ate in the bar area... More

I arrived to a beautiful and warm reception. Nothing was too much trouble. I walked into my room, with beautiful wide windows and a gorgeous view of the ocean! My complimentary upgrade was actually a king size, and the breakfast was varied and HOT! Made my birthday weekend one of the best ever! More

The bed was a super king size and super comfortable. The breakfast selection was just as you would hope for. The leisure pool, sauna and spa was just at the right temperature. The staff smiled and were helpful. More

We are regular visitors over the Christmas period and have seen many changes over the years, mostly for the better. The upgraded rooms are comfortable and well presented, well worth the extra cost for sea view and large balcony. The restaurant always offers good quality and varied food. This year the Chefs excelled with some fantastic fayre. Taking into account... More
