Good stay, not the greatest room but loved the Brekky

Room was tiny for 4 people , 2 double beds we felt squashed barely any room for our bags. Brekky was great choice at any of the 3 restaraunts, good location and nice view of beach out of windows.. but no balcony and the room was hot even with aircon on all the time, no air at all.

It was pleasent

The driver, Moses and the lady Eve with your taxi services, kept my family safe with transport

There seamed to be a strong smell of tobacco on our floor; seeing that it was Xmas, it could be understandable

Awesome view

I enjoyed the breakfast, however you need to cater HALAAL. All I could eat was eggs and toast

1. Halaal eatery in the hotel 2. Comfortable pillows PLEASE 3. My room was only vacuumed when I asked on Saturday. The room was not cleaned or vacummed when i checked in. There was pieces of paper on the floor when I checked in. And the room had a musty smell..

Most relaxing - most enjoyble.

Generally the location of the hotel was great-close to the sea, holiday facilities, gardens, promenade - great place for walking! The bed was capacious, most comfortable - definitely made for weary bodies!

The shower area could have been rinsed clear of beach sand; room service could have been a little more prompt; and dental hygiene products at hand.
