Margaret May 11, 2026 01:49:21 AM

Summary: Clean room, lovely breakfast & spa fantastic

Errol May 7, 2026 08:54:09 PM

Summary: The pool area was very busy with children. The hot tub looks like it could do with some maintenance. Had food in the Lighthouse Cafe and luckily, it was not representative of the food during the remainder of our stay.

Anita Apr 17, 2026 07:43:31 PM

Summary: The bedroom and bathroom were clean and tidy. The bar was well stocked and well staffed. Breakfast was enjoyable

Ashley Apr 13, 2026 07:12:07 PM

Summary: The location is fantastic and views unrivalled. The lobby and main dining room were very grand and luxurious. I didn’t feel the rooms were as in keeping. All the the staff in the spa and at breakfast were friendly and courteous, as were those on reception. The downstairs spa has a lovely view but the facilities could do with a refresh/deep clean. In comparison the upstairs spa for treatments was a lot nicer and cleaner. We had a few minor issues- the pull out sofa bed was made up in our room for no reason as we hadn’t requested it and there were only 2 of us staying- it wasn’t a major issue but a bit odd/detracted from the look of the room and the experience. There were also no robes in our room when we checked in- we rang and 2 were brought straight away, but one was very tatty and threadbare. Also in the bar we encountered an issue trying to charge items to our room (we had set up pre authorisation at check in but the bar staff seemed to find this an inconvenience). Breakfast had a fantastic choice.

Sarah Apr 1, 2026 07:13:38 PM

Summary: No bottled water in rooms! Rooms very dark, fake drawers and view of a brick wall. Very good breakfast though, grand public areas ans amazing views and location.

Karen Mar 16, 2026 12:22:16 AM

Summary: Scenic

ISOBEL Mar 14, 2026 09:45:24 PM

Summary: We had no ocean view, we were looking out to the car park leading to the Leisure facilities. Breakfast was excellent. Room was very clean. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful.

Lisa Mar 13, 2026 03:21:10 PM

Summary: The room we stayed in was a disabled room which was wonderful my only downside of this was the door into the room going in was workable but leaving was a task if these were to be automated they would be perfect if travelling as a load traveler. The bar on night time was great as a singer was on which he was amazing & breakfast in the morning was outstanding lots of choices to be made

Cleah Mar 4, 2026 09:09:33 PM

Summary: Yes

Sarah Feb 20, 2026 03:14:12 AM

Summary: The whole stay was amazing. Beautiful rooms with beautiful view and the food was top notch. We loved the spa also.
