Room very clean. Staff friendly. Generally great. A comfy bed. Just a couple of issues such as the shower leaking onto the bathroom floor and a noisy fridge.

To describe this place as oceanside is laughable. At best, it's estuary-side, and mostly the mudflats. I paid extra to have an "ocean" view, and that simply wasn't the case. We arrived mid afternoon and had to text a number to have someone come to the lobby. The room was fine, although certainly not high end. The people working that we saw, however, were super friendly. The restaurant next door is incredible! So, it's fine, but don't expect high end.

Note there is a 2.5% credit card surcharge for booking via Expedia, and reception does not open until 9am so you have no choice to avoid this when leaving. Nice boutique experience but overpriced by 25% at least. No elevator so you have to carry luggage to 1st floor so be ready for stairs. Bar staff in the attached bar/restaurant not particularly friendly or welcoming. Unlikely to recommend or stay here again.

The property is beautiful it’s a funny set up lots of live residents and the surrounding gardens are beautiful and rooms are comfortable. Room service is pretty average to say the least. Had to,ask for coffee on 2 occasions and beds were not made up. Birds crapped all over the car so asked for a hose to wash it off. Manager didn’t know what a hose was until I explained it to him then couldn’t help me. Gardens in the residential area are stunning.

If you like a Tuscan vibe, this is the place for you. Great sea front location. I think we hit this hotel in off season and it was super quiet. Situated in a small, residential townhouse community - not sure what amenities are available.

The property is very nice and great views over the bay. Staff are friendly but do not have any ability to make decisions when a problem is encountered. We had booked, and had confirmed by the property, a room for someone who was totally requiring disability access facilities - and the property emailed and told this was the case but on arrival the room being shown was not fit for someone in a wheelchair. There was no shower rails, no seat and the room was too small to allow anyone in a wheelchair to navigate around the room. This was sorted after several phone calls with the offsite Manager and a shower chair bought in and bigger room offered. Unfortunately that was not the end of it as after check in we received a phone call advising the charges would now be higher. This was frustrating as we had double checked the disability room needs via email prior to arrival and the property had confirmed they could accommodate my mothers needs. I had checked online and knew I could get a fit for purpose room at a lesser rate elsewhere and there was a very tense time while the property reception contacted the offsite management. However, at the end the property did honor the original pricing and apologized for the issues we had encountered. This was a shame as the property is very nice and reception staff friendly- it is near the airport and you do get noise from planes.
