Great location a few steps away from the beach. Bus stop into town just around the corner. Close to several places to eat and drink. Lovely clean room - spotless - and tea coffee and milk left in the room too along with the necessary bathroom bits. The host Zara was very helpful and had left nothing to chance. Would happily stay here again - recommended.

The Cliffs Pavilion is just 300 metres from the guest house, and Genting Club Casino is a short 13-minute stroll away. Adventure Island, a free admission fun park boasting over 32 different rides is also a 23-minute walk along the Western Esplanade.

I liked how closed to south end main part is by car and I also liked that you can see the sea from the outside of the hotel
