Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had mixed experiences, with private rooms but facing the car park and road noise. The service was top-notch with a focus on upgrading, and the location was cozy with beach access. The dining experience had timing issues, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is situated just across the road from the beautiful sand dunes by the coast, offering a lovely atmosphere and a cozy room. The service was helpful and friendly, ensuring a perfect stay, while the breakfast options were a bit limited. Overall, a comfortable and stylish stay.
I loved the unique room design, though it opened out onto a communal garden where I had to keep my dog on a lead. The room was small but stylish, with a comfy bed, good quality linens, and beautiful fabric on the headboard and cushions. It felt extremely comfortable, offering a very different experience from a standard hotel room.
