"Perfect beachfront location. The room ‘Salty Kisses’ was lovely, the view and doors opening not the beach were such an added bonus."

Staff great, views brilliant.

Room advertised as a double but more like a 3/4, not so good for 2 large poeple..

Location was superb

6 / 10Average·Aug 2026

The location is amazing and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bedroom was clean and well equipped with tea, coffee and relevant toiletries. We liked the sea view Immensely.

The room we stayed in, room 9, was next to the extraction fan for the kitchen which was very noisy. Fortunately soon after 9pm this was turned off. The bed was not very comfortable, I think it would better with new mattress maybe as the springs were quite prominent. The shower would not get hot it was just tepid.
