Pros:

Food was really good. The staff are very friendly and polite. Very close distance to the beach

Cons:

I didn't like that staff before booking, didn't inform us that the hotel is mainly for elderly/ retired adults. All night shows have been prepared for elderly people not for young adults. We didn't feel comfortable that we were the only one in the hotel who was before their 40th.

Pros:

The fact that it was adult only. Location was ideal. The buffet breakfast was great and the evening entertainment was amazing.

Cons:

A wee continental section would be ideal likea selection of meats cheese etc plus a wee selection of croissants and Danish pastries, cause sometimes a different choice is good.
