Lovely Views and Excellent Service

amazing staffefficient staffquality ingredientsmissing fridge
the staff provided amazing service and always helped. stuart at reception seemed constantly available and willing to assist.. the breakfast staff were friendly and efficient. we loved the breakfast, especially its quality ingredients.
the room lacked a fridge. i also noticed the absence of a bar for purchasing drinks. i had to use a communal fridge, which reminded me of a downgrade for such an expensive place.

the views were undeniably beautiful from the room.
The lack of staff was noticeable. I rarely saw anyone. the room also lacked basic amenities. There was no fridge to store drinks. the path to the beach was overgrown and unsafe with trip hazards.
