Reviews and Ratings
Our experience at the restaurant was quite mixed. While we enjoyed stunning views from our table and had a delightful seafood risotto, other aspects fell short. The service was not as attentive during our first visit, with several errors in our orders and a lack of communication from the staff. Overall, the dining experience varied significantly depending on the occasion, making it hard to fully recommend.
The dining experience was a highlight with a stunning location for a romantic meal, although there was a disappointing snack option during the afternoon. The hotel is very close to a beautiful beach and just a short walk from Main Street. However, some maintenance issues and consistently cold breakfast items affected the overall stay. It’s a beautiful spot, and I would consider coming back, especially for the views.
I had a wonderful time dining at this restaurant with stunning views right over the waves. The atmosphere was magical, especially during sunset, and the food was top-notch. Although it got a bit chilly, the staff were accommodating with blankets. Overall, it was a great experience with excellent seafood and vegetarian options, but be prepared for a busy atmosphere during peak times.
My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. While the welcoming atmosphere and impressive artwork showcased the pride of ownership, there were significant issues with the hot water during my stay. The breakfast buffet was quite varied and satisfying, but the extra fees for beach chair reservations were surprising. Overall, it feels like there’s a lot of potential here, yet some inconsistencies need to be addressed.
The hotel is a charming and slightly quirky place just steps from the beach, with a lush and picturesque setting. The suite I stayed in was spacious and offered a wonderful view, although I didn't quite get the sea view I expected. Dining was a delightful experience, with fantastic food and captivating live music, though it was a bit disappointing that sunbed access came with an extra charge. Overall, it’s a lovely place to disconnect and enjoy a more personal atmosphere, but the upcoming expansion may change its current charm.
