"The room was very clean and comfortable and the staff were great.
The only things missing were a kettle and an iron.
We requested a kettle which you can do and were provided with a coffee maker which was ok but a kettle would have been better."
"A lovely bright and airy hotel with great rooms. The staff were kind and friendly and breakfast was delicious. Brand new only open a month so I’m glad we discovered it before it gets busy which is no doubt will. "
"Booked last minute as flight cancelled so needed overnight accommodation. Staff were wonderful. Room was ideal for our needs with free water & soft drinks in mini bar. Breakfast was included which is one of the best I’ve ever had in a spectacular setting, will return."
"We were welcomed and given a tour of the historic hotel by the front desk upon arrival. The room upgrade was to a suite overlooking the bay. The room, bed, and bath were clean and comfortable. A small gift arrived each day of our stay. The 1891 Bar proved to be an excellent alternative as we preferred early and smaller dinners. The Christmas brunch had excellent food options; it was a buffet next to the pools. The staff were most helpful on check out, holding our luggage until our rental car had been secured and we were ready for the next leg of our journey."
"The staff were excellent. The room large with two terraces facing in different directions . One overlooked the pool and had a table and chairs but the other was a perfect spot for the New Year fireworks . I slept extremely well. Breakfast buffet had a large fresh choice and chef who cooked to order . Highly recommend "
