8/10 Very good

We stayed in 3 single rooms . These were small but mostly ok. All our beds were really comfortable and a good size and clean. One room didn't have a chest of drawers or a shelf in closest to put any folded cothes away and all lacked a chair . The rooms were pretty dark . The showers were hot and the pressure not bad . Overall for what we paid generally happy. and the staff so friendly . Breakfast also lovely .

The room was clean and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was very nice and the beach was only a five minute walk from the hotel. The bed was also very comfortable. I used the hot tub and the sauna and thoroughly enjoyed both. I would recommend it to my family. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

6/10 Good

Not so good

On first sight everything looked great. Funky interior in seating area near bar etc. Our room however was not up to scratch. Leftover hairs in the corners of the bathroom. Headboard and lamps not been Hoovered or dusted. Spray from other people's toothbrush not been cleaned on walls near sink. I told housekeeping and they did come to rectify however not the toothpaste spray or to my overall satisfaction. There was also a long hair wrapped in the toast holder at breakfast.

6/10 Good

The room was very tiny and with no air conditioning but the window could not be open There was a fan but was not enough to cool the room
Lucia, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Zero complaints

Simon, Sam and their daughter a very welcoming and are keen to ensure the comfort of each guests stay. The hotel is stunning, easily one of the best on the island. Currently some areas are still being renovated but this is hidden from view until complete. Breakfast was excellent and the bar is well stocked, even for non alcoholic beer. We wil certainly be staying here again on our next stay.
Andrew, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice area and clean an modern hotel staff are very helpful and welcoming ... only downfall was the restaurant was closed when it wasnt stated prior it will be. Otherwise breakfast was really nice... comfy and clean rooms but very surprised to see the bathroom sink out in the bedrooms and even that wasnt stated anywhere on the hotel page when booking and that was something i know i didnt like about the room. Otherwise its a beautiful hotel. The hot tub an sauna was really nice but take note the hot tub is outside on the deck but in a private area. Overall definitely recommended

8/10 Very good

good food but superior room very small although had fan as no air con. expedia should have advised that the hotel had changed hands since our booking
C, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

Looks good on the photos, but they have spent more money on the ridiculously complicated over-sized TV's they should have spent he money on upgrading the showers so they actually work, we had 2 rooms in our group and the issues was in both. bar and restaurant staff were polite but didn't know what they were doing, sorry I rarely write a negative review, but i wasn't impressed
