Lovely hotel, nice bar but dreadful music!
Hotel is nice, rooms are clean and comfortable with everything you need. Wonderful views and great location. Staff are friendly and helpful. Drinks are reasonably priced and there are loads of restaurants nearby if you don't want to eat at the hotel. Breakfast was lovely, dinner was not so good. The rest of our party enjoyed it so maybe it was just me, but I wasn't impressed with the options or the quality. It was nice to have entertainment available, although it wasn't to my taste. Rooftop bar is gorgeous (and you can visit it even if you don't stay there), but why on earth is the music up there so LOUD - and so dreadful?! Impossible to have a conversation without shouting or just have a drink and enjoy the view. I've visited the rooftop bar several times before my stay and it wasn't any better - seriously, I get it in mid-summer if you have lots of 20 somethings staying but the average age of your visitors when I was there was about 60+ - I refuse to believe they want that dreadful noise blaring away! Thankfully you can't hear it from the rooms!

Not worth the money
I stayed here for 2 weeks for a family holiday. My first impression was unwelcoming. I arrived with my partner and son along with my brother and his partner who were helping us with luggage as we had the baby. The receptionist abruptly told us he was allowed no further. I said okay he was just helping us inside with our luggage’s . He then told us he was not allowed in the hotel room which he wasn’t going to anyway.
Once arrived in our room it’s very standard room set up. No kettle however. It’s 14 euro a week to rent.
Housekeeping were partially friendly, some say hello, some have a lot of attitude. We were asked if we needed cleaning when we had already put the sign out on the door. If no then we would hear the relief in their voice, if yes it’s a dramatic sigh and a look at the watch as if it’s too much to ask for.
We had an ant issue, coming from the corridor under the door into the room, so many that they were found in our clothes!
Beds so uncomfortable that we have back pain now and my partner was bitten by bed bugs!! It was confirmed by a pharmacist.
For buffet breakfast- dont. It’s not worth the money. You’ll be left with a stomach ache lasting the rest of the day.
On check out, there was no “Thankyou, how was your stay “
Just a “yes no charges on your room”
I asked to leave my luggage and that even seemed an issue.
I had other family staying in the hotel and they thought the same. Nothing special at all considering the price payed.

Very good 3 star hotel, probably a 3 star plus. Breakfast was good with varied choices Drinks and bar snacks were reasonably priced. Fran the hotel games/entertain rep was exceptional. Aqua aerobics and other pool games were entertaining and fun. Hotel has an ideal situation by the beach and the main drag. I would definitely re-visit.

This hotel had everything we needed, however, if you want a QUIET hotel this is not it. Loud thumps music by the pool all day and at night music/ entertainment starts at 10pm and you hear every word from your room if you are overlooking the pool and beach

Great location.
Fantastic hotel, lovely sea view. Plenty sunbeds. Room cleaned daily. Decoration a little dated.
Roof top bar very nice.
Main negative is the towels are very old. Probably should be replaced.
Will definitely return.

It’s a 3 star hotel. But it’s in an excellent location. Very family orientated with a large pool and many day time activities. Can be noisy being close to the harbour. But location is key, and you can’t beat its location on the sea front and its sea room views.

Balcony doors
The hotel met all our needs, with good staff and good cleanliness. The one issue we encountered (2 friends in a family room on the 9th floor), was that when we went on the balcony and closed the balcony doors behind us, so that the room could stay cool with the air con on, we got locked outside and couldn't open the door. We shouted to someone on a lower balcony to get someone from reception to let us back in. Thankfully my friend was strong enough to open the door before help came. But when the member of hotel staff arrived, they just said "be careful, ok?". I feel like the outside part of balcony is a safety issue and should have an opening latch, like they do inside. It shouldn't have been dismissed as a triviality.

Great beach front hotel
Great hotel, we were in a pretty basic double room but it had everything we needed. The location is excellent set on the beach front with access to many bars and restaurants. The marina is a 10 minute walk and fantastic. Pool area is very clean and the food served at breakfast and in the snack bar was lovely and great value. Most sun beds are gone early however we always managed to find one and the staff do help.
