Hidden Gem

What a pleasant surprise we had staying here. A fabulous hotel with friendly staff. The lobby and breakfast room were spacious, bright and airy. Great selection for breakfast. The room itself was excellent with a very comfy bed and large tv. The view of the beach was stunning and most unexpected . This hotel is certainly a hidden gem we will stay at again

Gateway 1 star

Moved to a sister hotel due to overbooking by Gateway. Sister hotel was cheaper by €30. I was told to take it up with my booking agent. VERY poor customer service. I reached out 3 times to reservations in the Gateway.
