Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers nice, big, and bright rooms with a beautiful ocean view, but lacks basic tea and coffee facilities in the rooms. The service was friendly and excellent, although booking might not be its strongest suit. The location is convenient across the road from the wide beach, yet a bit far from other amenities. The dining experience on the upper floor was enjoyable, especially for cheese sandwiches.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not-so-great experiences. The location was perfect, just a stone's throw from the beach and a short walk to town. The rooms were bright and clean, with a comfy bed, but they weren't very soundproof, which was a downside. The staff was kind and friendly, although a bit lacking in some areas. The dining was good, and the facilities were up to par, making it a decent choice for a stay near the beach.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nicely appointed but lacked soundproofing, which was a downside considering the number of kids around. Unfortunately, there was no fridge or basic tea and coffee facilities. On the other hand, the hotel was right on the beach, which was a major plus.
