Excellent!
We stayed as a family of 13 for two days with more family joining us over the two days for a funeral and a celebration of life for my mother. The stay was really comfortable, the buffet for the celebration was delicious and plentiful and the staff were amazing, attentive and very friendly. I would absolutely stay here again and I would highly recommend!

The view hotel
Hotel was at a good location.
Night shift lady couldve been a little more polite and freindly and perhaps a smile wouldve gone a long way.
Day stadf were great.

The room was clean and comfortable. However, the single sea view was side facing, and not front facing which I had in a previous stay.
Also, the view from the windows were tainted by windows that could do with cleaning. There was also dripping on the balcony.
But overall, a pleasant stay.
