Great stay!
Great stay. Ideal location at the quieter end of town. Lovely laid back place. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Everything within walking distance. Lots of restaurant choice. Out of season so no problem getting tables. By the Sea staff were lovely and very helpful.

An amazing gem. The room was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The ladies at reception were so cheery and friendly, greeting you every time you past and asking about your plans. They were super helpful providing information on the area and booking trips. The reception area has so many extras for your use…just help yourself to beach towels, coolers, chairs, toys, bikes, etc. Would love to come back and stay longer!

Lovely place perfect location!
Lovely large villa right next to beach. Two small pools can be used, we were unlucky with the weather as not allowed in the sea so hard to review the beach. Nice restaurants and a large supermarket in easy walking distance. Great reception ladies!

We loved everything, starting with such a warm welcome from Myrna. Our unit had everything we needed, and being able to use bikes, and any piece of beach equipment you can think of (including wagons for transport), made it feel like we were staying with friends.

Stay here!
One of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. The location was really convenient to four mile beach, the women who worked there were very friendly and the place we had was very spacious. They had all sorts of things to make your beach day more enjoyable, including chairs, sand toys, balls, ice chests, boogie boards, etc. They also had some exercise equipment which you could take to your room and use. I would definitely stay there again.
