Our first room had a small king bed. Smallest I’ve ever seen. Had a rough night sleeping because of one of us turned over it jostled the other person We went to the desk early the next morning to see if we could cancel the next night so we could find another hotel. Staff solved the problem by moving us to a room with a much bigger bed. Great customer service and much appreciated

Spot On

Started with a very warm welcome by Perez, who is the best person you could choose to greet guests. Room spacious with balcony and water view. Large open hanging and storage space, not something we have experienced in hotels before but very good idea, pretty much like our walk in robe at home. Little sink, fridge and hot drink facilities behind a bifold door that lights up when you open, plus plunger coffee, big thumbs up. Another well conceived idea and implementation. Heated towel rack, separate shower and bath, as well as separate toilet across from bathroom, yet again, another well conceived application. Easy stair and lift access to room, restaurant, front of building, reception and undercover car park. Ticks all round. Well done.

Great room, service and views

We stayed in the studio apartment with a sea view. The room was a great size, with separate armchairs and table.The coffee/tea facilities included a fridge, cafetiere sink, plates etc. The bathroom was awesome a beautiful jacuzzi corner bath and separate shower. The view from our balcony looked straight onto the beach, which was popular with swimmers for their early morning 7am sessions.
