Really enjoyed our stay at the City of Sails. Friendly receptionists, pleasant to chat with and helpful. Room as tidy and clean, super cosy bed and the jetted spa was just the icing on top of the cake.

Lovely unit, really nice that we got upgraded to a spa bath. Just a couple of maintenance needs in the bathroom as the extractor fan doesn't remove the condensation hardly at all and there's grout crumbling out from the tiles. Lovely staff, we feel very well looked after
