Wonderful location, great staff and good value for the money
Pros:

The location was exceptional, the food in the restaurant was very good and was also good value. The view was amazing.

Cons:

Bathroom could do with a face lift, not really a criticism but more of an observation. Visitors these days would require something a little more modern and up to date

Not long enough
Pros:

Crab Mornay was fantastic and the breakfast ticked all the boxes. Our room no 2 was the greatest with 3 windows to view the ocean and the islands. Thank you from the Aussies
