The hotel was very nice, clean and the room was big, comfortable and well decorated. Unfortunately we had a very poor experience in the hotel bar where we went for dinner. Service was slow, they forgot our cutlery, our drinks order and our desserts, which never came at all. Following a complaint to the hotel, they have addressed the issues and been very accommodating in offering a suitable solution so I can't fault them on that front and on that basis, would be willing to return

Welcoming team. A lovely property in an amazing location. Good selection of drinks and food. Their spa is really good too, with a separate pool and gym too. I wanted to add a photo, but the app wouldn't let me on this occasion. Well worth a visit and loved the close proximity to the beach

A visit of ups and downs

Reception well-staffed &didn’t have to wait, but our room wasn’t ready on arrival, which was disappointing. An apology & an offer of a pot of tea while we waited would have made a difference but we were feeling quite fed-up by the time the room was ready. At the hotel’s invitation, we had upgraded to sea-view junior suite but the room allocated (110) didn’t meet their description of a junior suite so we queried it. James was brilliant, he showed us two other junior suites but, although definitely suites &very nice, both were very cold – no heat in the rads - and neither had a sea view. We decided to revert to a Deluxe Sea View and James showed us two rooms. The one we chose was lovely but again was very cold – no heat in the rads & one of the windows didn’t close properly. James provided a small oil-filled radiator and that did the trick; we were happy with the room. The lady on reception was very helpful, and quickly refunded the extra cost of the suite. Service at breakfast was very good as was the food – good variety and nicely cooked. Dinner was a bit strange in that the room information referred to the Lawn restaurant as “Championing the very best of British cuisine …” but the menu was Italian (where would we be without Google!). The food was good (if a bit on the expensive side) but not the British cuisine we would have liked, again the service was very good. Very friendly and efficient staff (with the possible exception of the gentleman who checked us in).

Interior design of the hotel is superb - clearly a lot of thought (and money) invested in the revamp. The only let down was the shambolic bar service -35 minutes waiting for a drink order to appear. The spa is amazing (although the staff on the desk could smile a bit more). The outdoor/indoor thermal pool is sensational

Overall it was a lovely stay and the staff were very nice, however it was understaffed which led to a tardy service particularly in the bar where dirty glasses piled up in the evening. This was not the staff’s fault as they were clearly stretched. Beyond this issue the hotel, facilities and the area are worth visiting.
