Its private beach, complete with kayaks and paddleboards, is a notable advantage for active travellers and families; coupled with comfortable, well-appointed rooms, it's a strong choice for a relaxing seaside escape.”

A stay with some drawbacks
convenient parking personal deck poor breakfast forbidden food
I found the staff very friendly. I appreciated the free convenient parking. My room was large and clean and featured a personal deck overlooking the cove.
I found the breakfast to be very poor for a 4-star hotel.

limited food selection unfriendly staff
the location was acceptable, it was close to some things.
the breakfast was a disaster. there were pastries everywhere, mostly bread pastries and donuts, so not a varied option. the woman working there was not friendly, she shut off the coffee machine before breakfast ended, then tried to hurry us out of there. i saw her relaxing on the beach shortly after, figures.

private beach clear waters water activities gentle waves
the private beach became my haven, it was wonderful. i passed my day swim in clear waters. water activities, kayaks and paddle boards was like gifts. gentle waves lulled me to sleep each night, recharging my spirit.
breakfast had limited choice, this was just a slight disappointment.
