    We found the pricing of the fish of the day a bit high especially compared with our room price and the dinner bill. Almost the same. I mentioned the mashed potatoes that came with the fish as non eatable but no response. Overall we would still recommend this nice hotel to our friends but tell them about the dinner.

    room very nice and we got one with the best views.

    We could find no faults

    It’s beautifully located with exceptional views over the Mediterranean. The sunrises are spectacular. Our suite was superb and the spa bath soothed aching muscles after long hikes along the peninsula. The restaurant is superb, the breakfasts delicious. The staff are welcoming and helpful. Housekeeping is top notch as rooms are quickly cleaned each day. There is nothing quite like this hotel anywhere along this coastline.

    Not many food options on site. The restaurant was lovely for fine dining but the snack bar was closed in off-season and room service was quite limited. It's not very far into town but when you're so relaxed you don't always want to move!

    Everything! I would have happily stayed much longer. Beautifully designed and appointed, and relaxing to be in. The views were amazing and the gentle sound of the sea. My dog was also visibly very happy to be there and loved the dog bed provided. I enjoyed my massage and spa and didn't get round to using the other facilities because I was so happy relaxing in the suite, looking out at the sea.

    Location on the sea in a little bay. Boutique hotel with flexible and service minded staff & management. We loved our stay and the initially planned one night stop on our way to Spain became two.

    The staff did not inform us or offer on-site parking. Nor did they offer to reimburse us for the parking fee we had to pay next door. The application to book services in advance like the dedicated beach beds etc., wasn’t working before our arrival. We needed up having to book and pay a full day for a two hour stay at the beach beds on our last day before check out.

    Best location. Well maintained property. The restaurant staff were fantastic! English speaking staff is very much appreciated. Food options are good quality. The suite was tucked away in the corner of the building so the Ouse levels were at a minimum.

    All extras come at a modest cost. Entry to the spa, sun loungers on the "private" beach, parking (there is a handy municipal car park next door). Walking to all the restaurants etc in the town is difficult, but less than 5 mins by car.

    Right next to the beach, although very stony and shoes are recommended when entering the water. Quiet. Comprehensive breakfast with lovely view from restaurant. The staff we met, especially the manager, were very helpful.

    They advertise with private beach: not true. And plus that you need to pay for the beds. They advertise as a spa, and for that they also charge (which is ok, but please mention it). During check in there is a sign that directly saves you 25% on the booking / Expedia price. Not very client friendly.

    Location is good. Staff is helpful. Beds are very clean.

    Close to a busy roundabout and distance from restaurants. The hotel restaurant was closed the nights we were which was disappointing as we were not advised of this. The room was tired and there was little room around the bed which meant you had to walk sideways to get around the bed.
