We stayed for 6 nights over Christmas...
We stayed for 6 nights over Christmas 2006. The hotel is in a great location and most rooms have great views of the beach which is just opposite the hotel. We had a superior room which was enormous and we appreciated the space as we were staying for the week. I would mention 2 things though - we arrived on 23rd December and the hotel was not able to cater for any of the gala meals for us over the christmas period, even though we had booked many months in advance. All tickets had been sold - many to people from outside the hotel who were coming in for the meal only. We ended up having our own buffet lunch on the balcony on christmas day and going next door to Peter's on the Beach fish & chip shop for some dinner later (excellent value for money). The other point I would mention is that housekeeping were amazingly slow to service the room - next door might get done at 10am and even though our 'Please make up the room sign' was on the door, they would clear off and do ours at a much later time. The latest it was done was 4.20pm one day even after me phoning to ask at 3pm. I don't think they had enough staff on duty and so were responding to who complained first, rather than any system that we could see. If you stay here and want to use the pool, they don't have anything like enough sunbeds either so be quick to get down there. The hotel was at the top end pricewise of any that we booked during our 10 week holiday and offers reasonable value for money, but no more than that.
