If you're looking for somewhere private, a stone's throw to the beach and the most hospitable staff in the area, look no further. Highly recommend the cocktails at Panda to compliment a sunny afternoon on the lawn and the local pizza, Pizza Do'h.

Modern, very clean accommodation with extremely friendly and helpful staff. Kitchenette was very well kitted out-they had thought of everything! Nice pool area and very close to the beach and shops and restaurants. Only slight downside is proximity to busy road but you hardly notice that when relaxing with a glass of wine on the nice balcony!

Boathouse resort is absolutely gorgeous! We came down for a little getaway and will absolutely be coming back! The room we booked was lovely! So clean and inviting. We got the spa room and it was perfect! The staff were very welcoming and friendly! There's an amazing restaurant next door called 'Panda' that we had dinner at. That was also an incredible experience with great food and service! This place is a must to stay at! Next time I'll be using the gorgeous pool that's on offer 😄 10/10

My husband and I stayed at the Boathouse Resort for 2 nights to celebrate our 5th anniversary after my cousin recommended it. We had an excellent stay right from the start with a most warm and friendly welcome from Leah. She gave us loads of options of things to do in the area and great places to eat. She even surprised us with a bottle of champagne for our anniversary! The room was massive with a king size bed, an extra single bed with a pullout bed, table and chairs, kitchen with essentials, perfect heating, a very nice warm shower and everything was spotless. The location is perfect. We could walk to the beach, restaurants, shops, and even a supermarket in a few minutes. We will definitely be back!
