Lovely hotel with friendly accommodating staff and would definitely buy ok there again.
Pros:

Beachfront and short walk yo everything. Very clean and welcoming. Lovely amenities.

Cons:

We were on the top floor and it was very hot. Not a fault of the hotel but a weather thing.
A fan was provided but it angled towards the floor and was noisy and wheezy.
