The people manning reception were friendly and helpful. Peter particularly looked after me, coming to my aid out-of-hours to retrieve something I had left in our room after I checked out. A lovely, peaceful place to stay and enjoy the boats and the sounds of the waves from the balcony and from within our room. Thank you!

Liked: Cleanliness
Room was a good size. Nice modern bathroom. Disappointing that the gentleman who asked if it was our first visit and when advised yes, he didn't let us know that the soldiers club across the road provided temporary membership during our stay. We ate and had a few drinks there and could have benefited from members discounts. Recommend this be mentioned to guests checking in. We only realised when checking out from the little envelope they place your keycard in.

The best part was sleeping to the sound of waves splashing against the rocks. Nice view (ocean view room). Close to eateries and pubs. Access to club across the road. Parking could be cumbersome as there are limited spots.
