The hotel is right on the beachfront in a wonderful location. The staff are fantastic - friendly and very welcoming. Food was expensive but great. The only real downside was that my ground floor room with a patio had a lovely view of the sea but no patio furniture at all so nowhere to sit and enjoy the view from the patio. Wifi was good, which was essential as I spent a lot of time working in my room. I will definitely return!
