Satisfactory Stay
spacious grounds clean lawn lounge bar
I stayed at this location for five nights. The grounds were spacious. I noted clean lawns, a long beach and plenty of space for children. The lounge bar gave a view of the sea, sky and beach. I found it satisfactory.
The hotel seemed aged. Common areas looked dull. The main restaurant did not meet expectations and the pool seemed average. I felt it was expensive for the level of service offered.
