Had a lovely stay and would return.
Pros:

The views were stunning and the breakfast was wonderful.

Cons:

The long wait every time at the reception desk to speak to anyone. Especially if you wanted to get towels for the pool. Towel should be next to the pool.

Not a good experience as room was looking over a building site with construction workers making constant noise from 7am
Pros:

Breakfast

Cons:

The fact that we were put in a room directly opposite a building site and no option to upgrade room. We have many times before and was very disappointed in the room we were given. We would think twice about coming again m.
