"A perfectly lovely stay. We’d return in a heartbeat."

10.0

Our apartment had a breathtaking coastal view. The apartment was extremely comfortably furnished with easy chairs and footstools a plus. It was a lovely stroll through gardens to Reception and the restaurant - umbrellas were available. We enjoyed an excellent breakfast in the dining area overlooking the beach.

Hotel a beira mar, localização excelente. Nosso quarto era bom com linda vista, mas ficava do outro lado da rodovia.

O box do banheiro vazava água pra fora e o chuveiro era muito baixo. Nossa pia estava entupida. O fato do quarto ser do outro lado da rodovia, ficávamos isolados do corpo central do hotel onde havia os restaurantes.

"Idyllic beachside location, unfortunately spoiled by funky smell."

7.0

Brilliant beachside location within walking distance of Pancake Rocks.

On arrival our room smelt strongly of bleach. We assumed it was because it had just been cleaned. However, on returning to our room later in the evening the bleach smell lingered and there was a very unpleasant funky smell in the bathroom that remained . ? Drains.
