The hotel has a lovely infinity pool overlooking the sea, it lacks a pool bar area as there is nowhere to get a drink when you are sunbathing. Service in the evening for drinks was a bit slow but the staff are pleasant & it’s good value for money. Didn’t have breakfast or dinner but ate at a locally instead. Excellent value for money.

Really nice area with supermarkets, restaurants and beaches but is a little bit of a walk/bus ride into the city. The balcony had stunning views. Bathroom was a little run down and the pool opening hours weren’t the best didn’t open till 11am. Overall a really good stay and the staff great.

This hotel somehow got ahold of my credit card information and decided to charge me for two nights which I didn't stay at those times. When calling hotel directly, they were extremely difficult to deal with. Never got my money back for nights I never stayed.

Sea View

Super location and exceptional sea views. Would definitely stay again as the position of the hotel worked well for us. Contemporary feel on check in, welcome was ok and check in efficient. We would not book parking again as plenty of safe street parking available. The breakfast was ok … a selection of hot and cold items but the room was sterile with little atmosphere and tables not cleared efficiently. Biggest disappointment was the hotel restaurant .. zero atmosphere and food arrived far too quickly from ordering to have been freshly prepared. Phenomenal sunrise from sea view rooms and super flat promenade to wander with easy access to the beach.
