Whilst advertised as a 4star this hotel is well and truly tiered and in need of some love. I booked it for the location and the fact it apparently had a bar on site and restaurant- well the bar only opens friday night - useless when trying to entertain clients . Restaurant was only open for breakfast- the staff and food at breakfast were fantastic

Great hotel and location close to beach

Lovely hotel, reception friendly and let me store my luggage as I was early to check in, a short walk to beach. Nice cafe in hotel open to 11am. Lots of shops, cafes and restaurants also around. I couldn’t get the spa bath to work is the only small thing but didn’t impact my stay.
