Lovely that on arrival we were informed we had a room upgrade to a sea view... Wow it was an amazing view! The views from the room, terrace, restaurants etc were all incredible. Even better than advertised. Beautiful picturesque area that allowed for a great photoshoot! Flowers in bloom, lovely sun and backdrop. Can't ask for anything more. Cocktails were very tasty. Staff at reception were great and welcoming. Atmosphere throughout was great. Very lively, music playing, people of all ages having a good time.

Poached eggs for breakfast. Honestly it must have been the worst poached eggs we have tried. So overdone the yolk was hard and the white rubbery. I'll definitely order the full English next time 😁. One restaurant worker was very cold and killed the atmosphere a fair bit. But everyone has their bad days. The food for dinner was okay. It's classified as fine dining but only the portion sizes represent fine dining. The food was not bad but not great either.

We stayed in a room with Seaview. The view was amazing.

The staff was friendly but some of them did not know much about the hotel. I asked one of the waitress where the pool was or how I could get down to the beach area. She couldn't help me. It was weird. It's not a big hotel how you don't know where the pool was:). Nevertheless, we found it. Also, the hotel is secluded. We went there for a wedding and did not have a car. There is not much you can do without a car.

My standard sea-view room was very good, as was the obviously recently refurbished bathroom. Staff were excellent.

Limited storage space in room (ie 4 coat hangers in closet). OK for my single, 4 night visit but could be an issue for a couple staying longer.

A lovely hotel, in a wonderful location that was managed well. We were invited to a wedding at the venue and what a great choice of venue it was!!! Faultless, in my opinion.

For me, as an early riser, I would have used the Swimming Pool had been available earlier in the day. (Say 7am). By the time it opened (0930) we were finishing with breakfast and were about to check out.

The location is amazing, the view is out of this world.

As a wedding venue it is understandably busy but there were not enough staff to wait on other guests such as ourselves. Breakfast waiting time was an hour and a half, set times would have been better.

The view from the hotel, the room was spacious. The staff were friendly. The food was delicious.

We were over charged with some cocktails, but that was soon rectified. For the 2 nights that we were there there was no mint for the cocktails!

Superb location with sea view from the balcony. Friendly staff and good food in The Cove restaurant.

Restaurant was very quiet- not much atmosphere as all the other guests were at the wedding venue. Bit odd being the only diners.

Beautiful hotel in a stunning setting. The staff were lovely and made our stay even better. Really good quality breakfast was included. The room was clean and great facilities, a lovely shower and we had a stunning sea view from our balcony. Swimming pool and steam room were a great bonus features.

The WiFi in our room was not great.
