We had booked a one night stay. When we checked out we were asked if we had ordered 2 bottles of wine at dinner the night before, which we hadn’t. After an hour, a member of staff phoned me and questioned again about the wine and now asked if we had a cheese board as well, we hadn’t. Very poor communication from dining staff to reception resulting in our wedding anniversary celebration spoilt. The hotel has potential to be good.

It was disappointing to realised we needed to pay an additional fee to use the spa despite being booked into the hotel and booking 1.5hr treatments. Facilities in the spa are limited ie no main pool for 2 hrs of use. For dinner I needed to ask the waitress to sweep the floor around the table which was very messy. For breakfast being such a sunny day it was a shame immediate access was not possible from the restaurant itself. The paintwork in the bedroom ie skirting and paper lining lifting.

Located next to the beach, our room had a sea view. Clean and bright room, comfortable bed and a largish walk-in shower. Good Sunday lunch if a bit pricey. Staff pleasant.
