Great location across from the beach, walking distance to local shops and cafes. Clean and well equipped. Was very comfortable for one person, would be great for a couple but maybe a little cramped for three or four. Bed very comfortable. Only negative comment is the hedge at the front blocks what would be a better view of the water, however it does offer privacy on the balcony. Also noticed there was no iron or ironing board which is listed in the facilities. Thankfully I didn’t need to use them. ##### Michelle H.

I wasn't expecting sparkling wine and a goodie bag to go with our stay. We had the most relaxing long weekend. I'd love to come back and stay where we did. The best part was falling to sleep to the sound of the waves lapping up along the shore with the roar of Zenith in the background. Then waking up in our familiar bedding to the beach only footsteps away. The clean fresh coast breeze was wonderful too. ##### Saskia B. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### AMANDA C.

The bed was comfortable and the free Wifi was great. The only thing I would suggest is that the front bushes be trimmed a little bit to get a glimpse of the sea - just enough for that while retaining privacy. We were very impressed with the L.J. Hooker staff, especially Sarah who was very responsive when we had a bit of an emergency. Very helpful and friendly caretaker as well. ##### Desiree O.
