Uitstekende hotel met goede prijs, dat je alles hebt wat je nodig hebt.
Pros:

Personeel was meer dan vriendelijk! Een van alle personeel was wel af en toe best chagrijnig, wat het niet een 10 maakt. Maar anderen waren meer dan top! Ontbijt was wel ietsje standaard, dan verwachting, maar prima lekker ontbijt was het wel! Jammer dat er geen spaghetti bolognese was voor een lunch. Verder ziet de kamer/appartement uitstekend uit! Het heeft alles, behalve een zitbank. Maar een uitstekende appartement was het! Heel fijn dat er een koelkast is en dat er een aparte slaapkamer was, die onze zoon lekker kon slapen terwijl ouders eigen dingen kunnen doen. Zwembad was top! Loopafstand naar de zee, supermarkt en waar je heen wilt. Echt aanbevolen als je een mooie vakantie wilt, voor goede prijs, die je overal heen kan met auto en dat je op de loopafstand naar vele restaurants kan.

Cons:

Zoals hierboven is verteld, is een van alle personeel af en toe chagrijnig die een bepaalde sfeer geeft. Zonde. En dat de ontbijt meer standaard is, dan wat er op de booking staat (inclusief "goed" ontbijt). En dat er geen garantie is dat je een parkeerplaats krijgt. Af en toe is het vol en moet je wat verder zoeken voor een goede parkeerplaats. Verder niks om te klagen

Family Stay
Pros:

Brilliant hotel, which is just two minutes walk to the beach, with a car park. Located near lots of restaurants and some shops.

The staff were very friendly and very helpful and accommodating. The room was a good size, with comfortable beds, a nice bathroom with a good shower, and two nice balconies. Although we didn't do any cooking, there was a fridge, microwave, and two ring hob for your use as well as a coffee maker.

The breakfast buffet has a really good selection and provides a good start to your day.

There is a lovely bar where you can buy coffee and snacks as well as lovely cocktails.

Nice swimming pool.

Cons:

There is nothing that we disliked, but some suggestions would be to add some storage in the bedroom. This could include replacing the small tables on either side of the bed with bedside tables, which had drawers, as well as perhaps adding a shelving unit or small chest of drawers.

There were two large cupboards in the hallway, which would benefit from having some shelves adding into them.

Pros:

Very nice staff and wonderful atmosphere, quiet, close to the beach with no big roads to cross. we enjoyed our end-of-season stay and staff at the reception was very helpful guiding us to local restaurants and hidden gems to explore. we ate the best food i ever had, and had a nice relaxing time. would come again and hoping to do so soon.

Cons:

doors where a bit thin so we could hear everything from the hallway and also the other room - our apartment had the bedroom in the back so this was not a problem for sleeping.
