Beautifully situated hotel a 2min walk to the beach. The hotel common areas are kept beautifully but the rooms are dated and not in keeping with the rest of the hotel. Could seriously do with a walk in shower rather than a shower over the bath which struggled to keep tje water temperature it was either scolding or freezing! Breakfast was delicious and really varied, and cooked poached eggs to perfection!

This was almost a 5 star review - only 1 issue let it down. First the positives: Great location close to the beach and beautiful views from the pool area ( Pool area service very helpful and attentive). Breakfast was excellent - huge choice to cater for everyone and friendly chef preparing omelettes etc to order. Stayed here about 2 years previously - but since then chef and evening menu at the Kamal (casual restaurant) has been completely transformed - food is now exceptionally good. Room had all the amenities you would expect and was kept very clean. Staff everywhere except reception were extremely helpful and friendly. I had however several issues with reception staff - which I think comes down to inadequate training and in a couple of cases poor English (given that over 90% of guests are from the UK, English language capability surely has to be a prerequisite for selection). Final small issue relates to the building itself - looking very tired in places with peeling paint/ plaster - I think this needs to be a priority for the off season.
