“In my opinion, the hotel's clifftop location and historic charm are undeniable assets; the multiple pools and gourmet restaurant add significant appeal.

Amazing Stay with Amazing Views

seafront cottagesea viewaqua cluboutdoor pool
I stayed in a seafront cottage, and the sea views were very nice from nearly every room. The location is fantastic! It is slightly away from the crowded center. The Aqua Club was a hit with the kids. The splash pool and outdoor pool overlooking the coast were superb.
The bathrooms in the cottage are showing their age, but this is a minor detail.
