    Request a room away from the car park for improved sound insulation and a more peaceful experience during your stay.

    blue flag beach
    pirate-themed play area
    family-friendly activities
    dated room
    inconsistent shower temperature

    Had an awesome time with friends! We loved the direct access to the seven-mile Blue Flag beach, perfect for swimming and windsurfing. The pirate-themed play area was a hit! The fun team kept the kids busy with games. Just a heads-up, the lift only goes to the 2nd floor!

    The room we got was pretty dated. The shower was either freezing or boiling, and it had a shower curtain that didn’t do much. We expected a more modern setup for such a great location.

    I enjoyed my stay, especially the beautiful walks along Compton Acres and the nearby beach, which made our weekend explore even more delightful. the friendly staff and the great buffet breakfast while overlooking the beach added to our experience, allowing us to feel right at home.

    cozy room
    beautiful views
    great pool
    spotty wi-fi

    The room was large and cozy, and we really loved the beautiful views from the balcony. Relaxing by the pool and enjoying the sun loungers made our stay extra special. Just a heads up, the Wi-Fi could be a bit spotty at times, but we had a fantastic experience overall! 🌊

    Comfortable room, pleasant pool, with a convenient location for beach access and enjoying the view from the balcony during sunset.

    very nice view
    lovely breakfast

    Recommend it for couples seeking a relaxing getaway

    The view from our room was very nice, the beach was right there, almost felt like you were on it. And the breakfasts, let me tell you, those were something special, seriously lovely.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but still reasonable for what you got.

    beach access
    delicious breakfast
    uncomfortable nights
    dated furniture
    drafty door

    The direct beach access is a standout feature, making mornings delightful. The room was spacious and well-maintained, but the absence of air conditioning made for uncomfortable nights. While breakfast options were plentiful and delicious, the dated furniture and balcony door needing an upgrade detracted from the overall experience.

    The room had a balcony with a view overlooking the beach. A flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and hairdryer. The bathroom included free toiletries, towels, and shampoo. Enjoyed the indoor swimming pool equipped with sun loungers. Breakfast had a buffet style with lots of options like fresh fruit and pastries. Staff was very attentive.

    friendly staff
    extensive breakfast
    tired decor

    Great location, not so great vibes

    Staying here was a bit of a mixed bag. The location is top-notch with stunning views! But honestly, the whole place feels kinda tired. My room was decent but no air con? C'mon. I loved the breakfast setup—had so many choices! Just wish they’d invest more in the decor and little things.
