I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were beautiful and clean, but I wished they had voil curtains to keep the main curtains open. Also, replacing the dining room chairs with a small couch would have made it even more comfortable. The first-floor location was convenient for me.

Rooms

The rooms were beautiful and clean on the first floor. I just missed having voil curtains to leave the main curtains open. Swapping the dining room chairs for a small couch would have been a nice touch.

Service

The staff were friendly and very helpful, quickly resolving any issues. They even moved me to a room with a working TV and a beachfront view. However, some seemed a bit hesitant to interact with guests compared to other places I've visited.

Location

The location was superb! Right across the road from the ocean, perfect for whale watching. I enjoyed being so close to the center and having easy access to restaurants, shops, and beach walks.

Dining

6.0

The dining experience was adequate. I found the options to be okay, but during my stay, there were long queues at the buffet due to a group of rugby players sharing the space. It would have been nicer if they had separate dining times for such groups.

The facilities were good. While not exceptional, they met my needs during the stay.

The hotel is located in a stunningly beautiful area in front of the rocky bay of the Atlantic Ocean, perfect for whale watching and offering easy access to the charming beach town center. The rooms are spacious and adorned with lovely furniture, including a cozy log fire in the main downstairs area. The service was a mix of helpful and slightly reserved, but still accommodating. The dining experience provided a buffet with a variety of options, catering even to Muslim guests, although appetizers were a bit lacking. Overall, a great value for a memorable stay.

I had a comfortable stay in a room offering an excellent sea view. The complimentary perks like parking and breakfast buffet added to the experience. However, the non-sea view rooms felt a bit ordinary compared to the ocean-facing ones.
