"Great location right next to beach. We had room that opened up into tennis courts which was lovely. Huge lawns to relax on for kids to run amuck. Also indoor pool and gym but we didn’t use either. We had dinner in restaurant but that could definitely be fancied up a bit and menu needs a few more items but hubby enjoyed his steak and I had the Caesar salad which was very good. Breakfast was excellent with lots of choices. I would very happily stay again and would encourage family groups that it’s ideal for them."
