amazing service front desk nice touches room small room room multiple texts email
Eve at the front desk was amazing. she helped us with our bags, since we had a pram. There is no lift. she also helped with restaurant reservations. getting a sea view was romantic. it was fine, like a scene from a movie. i was really taken by the nice touches in the room. tea and coffee were available, and i could ask for different kinds of milk.
our room was very small. it was fine for just one night.

lovely seaside getaway

sea view dog friendly hotel delicious food
i stayed in a beautiful sea view room. The view was amazing, the best part of my stay, I think. The hotel is super dog friendly, SUCH a plus. The food was delicious and the cocktails were divine.
i sort of expected dog treats and a bed, based on the details i received. however, i would say it was not the end of the world not to have them.

The room featured binoculars, a welcome addition for enjoying the scenery. I found the separate seating area a comfortable space to unwind and take in the views. Parking near the building proved very convenient..

the room had excellent amenities including nice shampoo and conditioner. the bed was very comfortable. the location is great, right by the seaside.
my room was very small (it was fine for a one night stay). the view was actually the back yards of multiple properties. i was offered breakfast, only to be told later that was a mistake and they don't serve breakfast on mondays.
