Very friendly, well run family owned hotel. Spacious rooms and wonderful pools. Don’t be put off by the fact it is under the airport. The noise does not seem to reach the hotel. Short walk into the nearest town which is mainly along the promenade after a short walk next to a motorway. We did this on average once a day.

This was a gem of a find. The facilities are slightly dated but the upkeep and condition is excellent. All of the staff that we encountered were superb. We felt that the selection that we had at the restaurant were very good and a good value. We'd recommend this hotel to our family and friends -- we would like to do a return visit ourselves!

Wonderful staff who can't do enough for their guests. The seawater pool is the main attraction (though the actual sea is about 1°C warmer for some reason). The food is excellent especially the scallops linguine. Very quiet despite being next door to the airport. Would stay again.

Our third stay at this superb hotel and we were welcomed back by many of the staff who were there on previous occasions. The staff are brilliant, attentive without being obtrusive. The food is excellent and the rooms very comfortable. Excellent facilities for what is quite a small hotel, which is why we like it so much and no doubt will be returning.

This is a small hotel but with all the amenities of a larger establishment. The rooms are well appointed and big and if you stay in the main building every room has a terrace/balcony with sea view. The food is excellent and reasonably priced for a hotel of this standard. Most importantly the staff are absolutely wonderful. I can not praise them highly enough.
