Excellent

We stayed for 11 nights for a relaxing holiday. The hotel was comfy and the reception staff very friendly. The bedrooms were modern however had little storage which made hanging up clothes difficult when staying for longer than 5 nights.
The bathroom and shower were ok however there was mould on the silicone and on both shower heads. I cleaned the shower with a towel however I believe this should be done by the hotel daily.
The pools were good and there were enough beds over the 3 levels. The pools however also were mouldy and require attention.
Hotel bar reasonable priced with a great selection of drinks
Abusive stag group.Managment wouldn't do anything about it!!! Told me to move instead. Bathrooms not clean or cleaned well through our stay. Towels wripped and frayed.
NOT a 4*.......

At the new bar for dinning it is only plastic cutlery that is given which isn’t suitable as they break really easily
Lovely hotel,great location,All the staff very friendly and nothin too much trouble.Breakfast was great with a large selection.All in all we was really happy and wouldn't hesitate to stay again.Thank You
There was an awful smell of drainage from the bathroom and main bedroom area. The smell was toxic!!!! Nothing was done to eliminate this!!! Also pool are had food and drink left out for 3 to 4 days. Very windy the glass was smashed!!! Not goog for pool areas
Had a room to start off with straight on to the street at the front of the hotel, noise was awful couldn’t sleep. Asked for higher room told would have to pay. Was more than happy to for the sea view. Instead offered room 460 overlooking hotel entrance. Gotta say beautiful quite, huge room, nice and quite and chilled. Great rest! Will defo ask for this room again if I stay. Good recharge for a week and chilled time.
Fantastic location near beach and marina complex. Yes, room decor was dated but everything was clean and the shower was powerful despite its looks. Great breakfast selection. I was worried about it being a dog friendly hotel as am not a fan of dogs but only saw one during our stay and it was leashed and quiet.
Reception staff SO rude... hen partys loud vile uncouth..barely any food at breakfast after 8.15am ..bedding dirty bathroom filthy towels with holes 2/3 star max
The hotel looks to have had a recent refurb in some of the rooms but unfortunately we had a more dated room (not an issue for us) still very clean and had everything we needed. Also blessed with the most beautiful sea view. Staff were lovely, great service, throughly enjoyed our stay here.

Bathrooms dated and require upgrading, paint flaking from ceilings, baths not cleaned
Great location for walking to the marina and beach. Rooms (we had 2), though the bathrooms were a little dated, were kept beautifully clean and organized by housekeeping even when we didn’t leave til later in the day.
Staff were mostly friendly, except one rather abrupt front desk receptionist, but Rafa, also at front desk, was FANTASTIC. As someone also in the hotel business is happily try to steal him for my small hotel if I could! We had a couple of minor issues but he went beyond the call to sort it out.
The pools always had loungers available, no need to stress! Rooftop pool is very shallow but the water temperature very pleasant. Food at the pool bar was only ok. Smoothies didn’t seem to be fresh fruit.
There was a bit of noise from roadworks but it wasn’t terrible though it did ruin the peace at the rooftop pool a couple of days.
Overall a nice enough hotel if a little characterless.
