Pros:

The room was surpringly large and comfortable. The location of the hotel was perfect... right next to the beach over the sand dunes. The facilities were brilliant. Everything that you could want for a family holiday especially. We got a disabled room - last minute booking but it was very comfortable. very central to all facilities with an outdoor sitting area. Great selection for breakfast and we regretted not eating dinner there as the food/carvery looked amazing

Cons:

the bathroom floor flooded a bit when the shower was used which could make it slippery and dangerous for a disabled person or someone with limited mobility.

Pros:

Clean, efficient, just off SWCP

Cons:

A range of names:
Croyde Bay Hotel
Croyde Bay Hotel and self-catering
UNISON Croyde Bay Hotel

Just pick one and it'll remove the confusion of thinking there are 3 different places.

Superb location that affords many options during your stay and well priced. Ideal for 2-3 nights.
Pros:

Set in an excellent location just a few hundred meters from the beach and some local bars. Bus stop outside for venturing a little further.

It is immaculately kept and the staff were helpful and chatty.

The room was nice and large with extras such as hair dryer, iron and kettle as standard but with bonus items such as mini-fridge and fans.

Generally suited us for a few days away.
Pros:

Location to the beach and the centre of Croyde.
Kitchen was well equipped and large fridge and freezer were appreciated.
The play areas were well maintained and fairly well equipped.

Cons:

The double bed was too small for 2. The wardrobe was impossible to hang anything in as it was full of bedding. The second bedroom was far too small and had nowhere to store anything. The shower pressure in the bathroom was very weak and the adjustable height was broken. There was no where to put toiletries in the bathrooms. No shelves or surfaces to place things on.
Some areas have been upgraded but other areas are in need of refurbishing.

It was worth it for a quick getaway.

I like how it situated by the beach. Perfect who loves walking and swimming. My son enjoyed the mini activities in the playground area.

Cons:

We were challenged locating our room as there were no visible signage’s despite maps being available for use.
