Would recommend Cliff House just for the style. It’s pretty special.
Pros:

Location, the James Bond (Roger Moore era) vibe, the pool and spa and ocean swimming spot. Also great staff all round.

Cons:

I booked the hotel for the Michelin star restaurant for my partner’s 60th only to find the restaurant closed two days a week. The “casual” dining was very good. Breakfast a bit lack lustre: generous but hard eggs….

Very good stay and staff were lovely
Pros:

Location , staff and the ash suite were excellent - stunning views over Ardmore bay -

Cons:

Limited gym facilities and pool was ok - sauna and steam rooms were very good - entry into hotel after midnight could be improved - maybe establish a dedicated fob entry security system - ( if we had no mobile phone with us , it would be difficult to contact the night Porter ) - only minor issue !!
