A truly relaxing stay.
Pros:

Our stay was absolutely delightful, thanks to the upgraded room offering stunning views of the beach and ocean. The relaxing atmosphere at the bay bar, combined with delicious food and drinks, made for a truly special experience. Breakfast at Dune was a lovely, calm start to the day, setting the perfect tone. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond from check-in at reception to ensuring our needs for accessible parking and extra pillows were met. We couldn’t have asked for a better team!

Great hotel, despite the lack of air con.
Pros:

Staff, Location, Hotel decor and Room view were amazing. Great place to stay and explore Fistral beach and Newquay.

Cons:

The only issue we had was our room temperature. In the middle of May where the outside temp was around 12 degrees C, the room temp was VERY warm, so much so that we had to sleep with the windows open all night to get some fresh cool air in. There was no other way of cooling the room as there is no air con in the rooms.

Great location, could do better in rooms/parking/restaurants
Pros:

The location and view from the hotel is amazing - definitely the best part of staying in the hotel.

The young waiter (Ty) was so helpful, friendly and polite - best staff member of the stay for us.

The bathroom products were excellent and smelled lovely :) also good that the spa products were on display with samples to try.

The swimming pool and steam room were great.

Cons:

We didn't like being asked if we wanted to pay to upgrade our room - we normally stay in quality country house hotels and they would just upgrade automatically if they have rooms available.

Nowhere to put our 2 suitcases so we ended up leaving all our clothes in them and having them open on the floor which made it very tricky to get around and blocked the doorway. It would be better to have a bed with space underneath to store them.

Not enough room to store clothes even if you could take them out the suitcase, one small wardrobe with 3 hangers and a draw at the bottom and 2 bedside table drawers which is OK if you are only staying 1 nights.

No shower cap - come on guys, this is basic stuff for a hotel surely? luckily I always have a spare in my wash bag.

Hairdryer was useless, you need to upgrade them, it couldn't blow a fart away!

The sauna was out of use which is a shame.

The parking is not great, not enough and there were several vans taking up a lot of space and making it difficult to park, but understandable given it's location.

The Bay Bistro we only dined in once as the staff took our drinks order and then went home, although the other staff member pulled it back by not charging for the drinks because of the delay and he was fab, but the food was average at best. I had the Croque Monsieur (which I've had many times) and it was cold and not enjoyable at all.

We did eat in the main restaurant one night but the food was average and in my opinion overpriced for the quality - we dined the rest of our stay in the neighbouring hotel (Headland Hotel) and that food was definitely worth every penny and much better dining experience, you should pay them a visit!

Sehr schönes Hotel mit tollem Meerblick
Pros:

Sehr schönes Zimmer mit tollem Blick über den Fistral Beach, gute und bequeme Ausstattung
Sehr gutes Frühstück, sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal, Parkplätze direkt vor der Tür
Sehr gutes Restaurant

Cons:

Die Küche des Restaurants war ausgezeichnet, aber die Portionen für den Preis zum Teil sehr "übersichtlich". Der Hauptgang alleine reichte keinesfalls, um satt zu werden. Das war etwas schade, weil es doch sehr teuer war.
