I stayed here with my daughter and we had a great time. The bed was amazing, the room quiet and it always smelled good. The pool is refreshing, breakfast was very good. The surrounding area was also very nice with shops and quaint little streets on the peninsula. Good beach, beautiful water. All in all we liked our stay and I would recommend the hotel.

Extremely clean and tidy and staff very welcoming and helpful. The gym is snall and slightly open to the elements but has sufficient equipment for a basic workout. Food was amazing, vegetables slightly cool but could be warmed up in the microwave. Area around coffee machine & microwave a little hectic at breakfast. Pool looked great but weather too cold in March! Would definitely recommend for a short stay.

Great modern property in excellent location. Use of indoor plunge pool costs extra so we didnt use it despite the rain all week. Buffet breakfast is excellent but some of buffet dinner food was not hot when it should have been. Service was generally excellent. Would visit again.

very good - food let it down

Very good, modern hotel, very large and comfortable bed, the aircon worked well. The lunch and dinner main courses were a disappointment, the meat was far too thin to cook properly and dried out. the chefs were very good and friendly, doing their best. The cooked breakfast was very good.

Very nice looking place but weirdly no coffee set up in room and cafe doesn’t open until 10. And they wouldn’t let us just get coffee from the breakfast room. Didn’t get an upgrade or offered the ‘free tour’, no parking available and unfortunately the desk clerk has very little English- which in a 4 star hotel really shouldn’t happen

Fantastic, centrally-located beachfront hotel!

I gave this hotel a 5 due to the location, near to all bars, restaurants, shops, the friendly/helpful staff and the fact that it’s new and in excellent condition. Having gold status meant I was eligible for an upgrade if available. I had to ask for it as it wasn’t offered and they gave me a sea-facing room on the first floor with a huge balcony. However, it didn’t feel like an upgrade as the room was very small and I wasn’t able to enjoy the balcony as it offered no privacy. That said, the room was comfortable and cleaned to a high standard. One point for improvement would be the breakfast which was very limited. On the whole I really enjoyed my stay and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

I did not get to stay here. Expedia lists it as “service dog friendly” and when I showed up, I was denied. I showed them her registration card and they told me “we’re not set up to support service dogs”. When I told the next hotel. They were mad for me since “it’s illegal to decline service dogs”. Expedia do your job, and please report this.
