Just got back from a stay at this hotel. The beach opposite is lovely and you receive heavily discounted sun beds with your stay. The hotel was very nice, couple of minor issues with the room but overall a wonderful and memorable stay.

Enjoyed this hotel, location is really good and walkable to shops, food, pharmacy and beach is across the street. Hotel had great amenities to add a special touch upon arrival that were ready including airport transfer. However, would not recommend using the airport transfer driver for transportation outside of the airport transfer if he offers. He charged us 100% more than other taxi drivers. Felt scammed Breakfast was delicious, rooms were beautiful. Hotel gym was also very nice Read less

A lovely, friendly hotel with excellent staff throughout. Situated just a few steps away from Rockley Beach, it was ideally situated from the beach and from the various local eateries. The hotel comes highly recommended.
