Hotel was nice and in a good area for getting to beach, marina, restaurants and bars. We were here for a wedding which was about 7 mins drive away. Hotel breakfast had good selection, would be nice to have proper cutlery, plates etc rather than plastic & paper. Suite was large and had loads of space. Only negative would be the room was getting dated and the drapes were ripped. The pool is very small with only one sunbed and some chairs. Other than that the staff were very nice and helpful.

I had a wonderful stay! The staff were incredibly friendly, the hotel was spotless, and the breakfast was amazing. I definitely plan to return. My only minor issue was that housekeeping inquired about our checkout progress with 40 minutes left. We were already packing and preparing to leave, but it did make us feel a little rushed at the end.

The night employee was no help on how to work the jet tub and seemed to be high on something because he had slurred speech and kept repeating the same thing when I asked him questions. The hotel stunk of weed and especially in my room it smelled like weed.
