"We liked the room, an despite the noise from the streets etc we slept soundly. The Breakfast room was very busy, queues to get a table, and difficult to move about because of the congestion. Perhaps an area for adults only would help as there were a lot of children running around. We did not find it very pleasant to eat. However, the choice of food was excellent."

10/10 Excellent

"Great little get away for a girls trip with my young daughter. The room was spacious, clean and well maintained. Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us which meant we didn’t get to use the pool. However having the cafe and restaurants just downstairs was very handy. Loved that it was close to the main area of surfers yet just far enough away to enjoy a more relaxed vibe. We will definitely be back. Staff were super friendly, helpful and polite."
