A fantastic place to stay, with beautiful spaceous rooms / suites. Immaculately clean with everything n perfect working order. Very friendly and attentive staff. The view is great - crashing waves and a nice beach. Sometimes the waves make the hotel shake. A covered parking under the hotel. I stayed here now some 4 times and always enjoyed the tranquility...

We were delighted with our room and the balcony, puttting this almost on top of the Pacific Ocean, what a shame our three nights there were blighted with terrible weather! However, the room was warm and a great size with cooking facilities and even a washing machine. You do get the feel that this hotel is still a good quality... More

It was clean, and had everything one needed - dining, lounge, kitchenette, as well as washer/dryer, balcony with sea view. Parking is free. We did not eat at the... More
