Loved staying at the Beach Front Hotel. So great staying right in town and next to the beach. The only fault was the water pressure in the shower.

S J, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room wasn’t cleaned/refreshed during our stay. On the day we left, Cleaning staff walked in at 09:15 without knocking and I was undressed.
Anya, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The room was amazing, very large and comfortable bed, shower and bathroom really good. Receptionist was cheerful and helpful, but the room that we were put in was on the upper floor and my wife has quite bad arthritis and finds stairs a problem. We asked if there was another room available, but due to 2 coach loads of people being booked in, there was no alternative. That aside this hotel had a bell boy, who could not have been more helpful.

I loved the ease of parking, the friendliness and efficiency of the staff. Having a restaurant on site with discount for early payment of breakfast. Excellent views, so close to the beach and centre of town.
