The welcoming was outstanding and the lady explained everything to me as to what to do when I needed anything and how to order. The next day my phone that I used to gain access to the property was off but I used my partner's phone to call the after hours number and a guy opened the gate for me and showed me the parking spot, that was marvelous 🙏

At Room two, there's a door to another room and in the early hours of the morning the light in there keeps going on and off and that's very disturbing. Please keep the light off. I don't know if it's a storage room or what but it's not nice seeing the light going on and off that frequent.

A lovely and quiet place. Our rooms were amazing and cleaned everyday. The kitchen area was kept clean. The staff was super friendly. I had a problem with Wi-Fi on our arrival day. Nicole made sure it was sorted immediately when I reported it. I will definitely stay there again when I'm in PE. My son and sister couldn't get enough of the pool. La Mer is a perfect place for a getaway.

Staff are very friendly and helpful. We forgot to pack some stuff. They phoned us to collect. The flat was clean. Handy location. Nice breakfast in a venue with seaview.

Shower water was hot cold hot cold. Our flat was right next to the pool. Other kids play in the pool early in the morning. A lot of noise.
