A great hotel and great hosts! The hotel was spotless throughout and the rooms were spacious, well laid out and serviced every day. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious with a good selection of cereals, fruit as well as cooked options. A small bar with plenty of seating which was opened on request at the drop of a hat. Martin and Mandy were so friendly and approachable making them great hosts. They work like absolute trojans maintaining the high standards they have obviously set themselves. Thanks Martin and Mandy for a great stay and we won’t hesitate to book again when we return.

Having stayed at this hotel once before 3 years ago and being impressed with the overall standard and friendliness we didn't consider staying anywhere else. The hotel, again ticked all the boxes. Everyone is so friendly from the time you arrive until you leave. Ample parking. Breakfast was cooked to order and really tasty. Cannot fault it and would highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay here, very comfortable room, bathroom was a little small but functional very good shower. The owners were very friendly and pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was a standard and well cooked breakfast my only suggestion would be to have tea, coffee and juice that people could help themselves to refills at breakfast. The location was quite and a short walking distance to the lively area of town to enjoy the amenities with very good seafront access. Thank you

Recommended for anyone looking to stay in the area

We received a very warm welcome...comfortable room, good breakfast and there was a lift, which I found helpful at the moment. It is in a good location, with on-site parking. If we had to give a negative, the sink in the bathroom is a little small...everything else which matters was just as we would have wanted...thank you...

Excellent guest house

The Arona guest house is brilliant, Jill is so attentive to each guest needs, the hotel is so clean it made you feel safe during this current crisis. The location of the Arona is brilliant 100m from the beach. Breakfast was amazing cooked to order, looked forward to it each morning. Our room was perfect, cleaned daily with tea/coffee facilities topped up. Would recommend the Arona and will be returning.

Hotel was next to beach but stay was a let down.

Firstly, websites said there was a restaurant but it was closed, do understand chef had walked out and left them with a problem. Sheets in room were stained, had to ask for towels, bathroom was dirty and in the 4 nights we were there were not cleaned at all. We had to ask for toilets rolls. Table cloths at breakfast were not clean, and the stand in cook came out to get orders with a very dirty shirt on....the whole experience we felt was run by novices who tried very hard to please but didn’t have a clue. I know they need to succeed but not at the expense of our £100 a night cost. Understand it’s a guesthouse not a hotel, but good clean standard at the norm wherever you stay. Will not be returning. Please pass this on to the owners.
