We had a Coral Sea Suite which was lovely. Gorgeous views and a well appointed room and a great location. Would highly recommend. This resort is popular with weddings (3 weddings over the 5 nights we stayed!) and therefore can be a bit noisy. However staff quickly shut down any noise after 10.30pm. With all that said, we enjoyed our stay here.

A lovely ocean side resort. Spectacular views and an easy walk into town along the waterside. The surrounding boardwalks have amazing views and feel very safe. Our booking included a continental breakfast which had a good range of cereals, danishes, yoghurt, fruit, toast/breads, juice/coffee. It was lovely but by day 3-5 I was craving variety and a cooked breakfast. Pack a warm jumper as it can be cool in the morning when having breakfast when it is windy (July). We will definitely return. Such a lovely place to relax and enjoy the view

Disliked: Staff & service

Good rooms but lacking service

Stay was good due to room with view, however missing things such as in-room minibar, and hotel service was not great - lacking in comparison to other hotels we normally stay in at this price range. Pool unheated. Also breakfast is continental only unless you are prepared to pay extra. Should include eggs and bacon without paying extra at the room rate.
