Epouvantable- pire expérience de ma vie
Pros:

La vue est reelement magnifique

Cons:

Notre chambre n’avait pas de fenetre du tout. Ce n’était pas une sorte de skylight comme suggère mais une chambre absolument borgne. La personne de l’accueil a été absolument epouvantable dans la gestion de la situation et n’a pas sa place dans le secteur de l’hospitalité.
Par ailleurs la cuisine est infecte et les installassions vetustes

Comfortable and convenient location for a wholesome family trip.
Pros:

The indoor pool was great for our little one as she was a bit shy to go to the beach. Breakfast and food overall was good too.

Cons:

Parking was a bit tight but it is normal in a very busy place, saying this there was always an open space for our car.

Beautiful location and good food, but the overall experience didn’t quite justify the price
Pros:

Absolutely stunning location overlooking Combesgate Beach with amazing views throughout the hotel. The communal areas are beautifully decorated, bright, comfortable and nicely nautical themed. The outdoor pool area is lovely and dinner on the terrace overlooking the beach was a real highlight. Food at both dinner and breakfast was excellent and good value for the setting, with a great continental breakfast alongside cooked options. Reception staff were also fantastic and very helpful throughout our stay.

Cons:

The hotel didn’t quite feel like true four-star luxury for the room rate. The outdoor pool area lacked enough loungers and some umbrellas were broken. The indoor pool/spa area felt underwhelming with nowhere comfortable to relax. Restaurant service was disappointing and staff seemed disengaged. One of our rooms (18/19) had broken air conditioning which made sleeping difficult, and the hotel is quite noisy due to thin walls and an older building structure.
