Large clean modern room . Good location with beach
Room was upstairs and had lovely views of the beach. Large modern and updated room. Easy parking. The negative was, the hot water in the shower took at least 5 minutes to warm up, also the hand basin in the bathroom was tiny, could barely wash my hands. Overall, would stay here again.

Unreliable for business travel
Booked this on hotels.com about 2 weeks prior to the trip only to find on arrival that they did not in fact have my reservation and were saying they had not received payment when it was paid for through Hotels.com. It wasn't until Hotels.com got involved that they found my reservation but said they were completely booked out. However managed to find me a standard room when I had paid for a Deluxe Business suit. No refund, No apology, very poor service. Wont be coming back and could not recommend this to anyone. I do a lot of travel for business and this is the first time I have ever had this happen by a property. The fact that they downgraded my room but failed to refund the difference was astonishing!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was lovely - it was new, clean, comfortable and quiet. The bathroom was really nice, and the water pressure and temperature of the shower was great! The bed was comfortable. It had air-conditioning in the lounge area and bedroom and a ceiling fan in the bedroom. The views were spectacular and with very close beach access. I can see the rest of the property is undergoing renovation, and once this is complete, it hopefully includes a restaurant - not a deal breaker, but with those views it would be a great place to eat.
