Lovely place, shame about the restaurant.....
Pros:

Room was snug rather than spacious, but very nicely decorated in nautical themes. Easy access to the pool and beach

Cons:

Bathroom was small, and with the door right next to the second bed, was difficult to access without waking your partner. Restaurant was ok for breakfast but poor for dinner. Seems they mainly supply pizzas for guests to take away! My preferred main was unavailable on both nights, and there was NO desserts at all. So, not the full service restaurant we expected
