Nice, but don't visit in the summer if they're renovating.
Pros:

Great beach front location. Great family room. Nice and quiet.

Cons:

It was a summer visit. They said the AC would be off intermittently. It was off permanently and the windows don't let in any air on the top floor. As a result the rooms were suffocatingly hot- much hotter than the pleasant sea breeze temperature outside. So we slept awfully.

Myself and family were not treated fairly at all.
Pros:

The only thing I liked about the property was the location that’s all.

Cons:

I paid for a ‘premium room’ for £278.00 and there wasn’t any form of AC in the room. There was only one small fan kept in the room, my kids were sweating profusely all night. I didn’t get any sleep because I had to stay awake mostly to manually fan the kids. Full payment was made nonetheless and no empathy at all from the staff I complained to.
