A relaxing stay.
All members of staff were so smiley and helpful. The chef was very supportive with allergies and worked out a menu suitable for dairy/soya free which was very kind and hopefully next time we can try it out as this time we are out. They cooked a beautiful dairy free breakfast for her. The breakfast buffet was beautiful and all delicious. The spa was amazing, loved the fact that no children were in there which made it a very relaxing experience. It is 10 minutes walk to a beautiful beach. The hotel is gorgeous and we will definitely visit again.

Great location, amazing view and amenities, outdoor heated pool, tennis courts, golf course as well as spa facilities too. Getting drinks in the bar was a bit slow 3 staff on duty at the bar, and all standing behind it. but only taking orders once their manager pointed out they needed to. Some guests had table service and others had to go up to the bar. No real reason as to why the difference in treatment of guests. Maybe inexperience more than anything. Overall lovely place and would stay again.
