Beautiful place, inconsistent service
Pros:

The location is great! The room was beautiful, staff at breakfast were lovely. We were given a fantastic welcome which we really appreciated. The restaurant in the hotel was fantastic.

Cons:

Housekeeping was inconsistent and very slow to take dirty plates from room, our fridge was set to -6 and the waters kept freezing. Construction took place at 8:20am on our last morning in the hotel.

Nice for a short stay for dog lovers.
Pros:

Dog friendly and beside the beach.

Cons:

That breakfast is down a level from the lobby and you’re expected to carry it up on a tray to the lobby when it is dog friendly. This isn’t feasible for everyone, it should be served on the same floor as the other meals.

Beautiful dog friendly hotel
Pros:

Beautiful dog friendly hotel in a stunning location, literally right on the beach.
Staff were all so warm and friendly.
We stayed in a dog friendly apartment which was lovely and spacious and had an enclosed patio garden which my dog loved.
Lovely vibe in the hotel, we ate and had drinks in the lobby area, food and cocktails were beautiful and good value.
I treated myself to a lovely massage in the spa the following morning which was 10/10!
Highly recommend and we can’t wait to go back again soon.

Overpriced, Dirty and deeply uncomfortable- avoid
Pros:

I wouldn't normally write a review like this, but I feel I have a responsibility to warn other travellers.

I originally booked an apartment with my family which was so inadequate — cramped, dirty, and with no hot water — that we had no choice but to relocate. I ended up paying £450 for two nights in a "garden room," which turned out to be no better.

The room was filthy. There was hair all over the bed sheets, dust and dirt throughout, flies roaming freely, and spiders. This is not the standard anyone should accept, let alone pay £450 for.

The issues didn't stop there. The shower door handle fell off completely. There was an ironing board in the room but no iron. The hairdryer didn't work. Most concerningly, the peephole in the room door had no cover whatsoever — meaning anyone walking past could look straight in. I had to cover it with tape myself for basic privacy and security.

The "garden room" is essentially a partition rather than a proper walled room — you can hear every sound from the entire block. Sleep was virtually impossible.

These photos speak for themselves.
