Above our expectations, was so nice to be in a place that is so dog welcoming and dog friendly.
Pros:

The staff were exceptionally nice to our Dog Rolo. They were always delighted to see him and welcoming in the restaurant also. The restaurant staff were always happy to see him and gave him lots of attention. The receptionists made him very welcome and happy. Above our expectations, was so nice to be in a place that is so dog welcoming and dog friendly. You can see that by the way the locals come in for food and drinks with there dogs. Plenty of beaches and walks within a few minutes walk. Local restaurants are also dog friendly

Cons:

If a dog is misbehaving, i.e. approaching other's tables in the dining room or barking incessantly, I think staff should some how intervene.
