I had a pleasant stay at this resort spa. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean, though I found them a bit challenging to cool down. The location was perfect for our family holiday, providing easy access to the beach and a lovely picnic area. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the use of natural products. Overall, it's great value for money, although parking wasn't as straightforward as I'd hoped.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was fantastic, directly across from the beach, which made it really convenient for our fishing trip. However, the rooms were spacious but quite dated and lacked air conditioning in the bedrooms. While it had everything we needed, it wasn't aired out for our arrival, which made it less inviting. Overall, I got decent value for the price we paid.

The hotel offers a peaceful escape right across from the water, with spacious rooms that are well appointed. However, the couch in the room was quite uncomfortable, especially for someone with a disability, and I felt the bed could use an upgrade. Overall, while the stay was nice, the room comfort left a little to be desired.
