We had a lovely stay at this resort, enjoying the cozy cottages and the beautiful beach nearby. The value for money is quite good, especially with the included breakfast and various amenities. However, there's definitely room for improvement, particularly concerning some of the renovations that are still in progress, which left a few areas looking a bit rundown.

My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. While the rooms were clean and the staff was friendly, the overall condition of the property was very poor. The dining area seemed upgraded but lacked any real amenities or activities. I wouldn't recommend it for families looking for a true resort experience as there were hardly any facilities or safe access to the beach.

I had a pleasant experience overall, enjoying a great location on North Bay Beach with clean and comfortable accommodations. The amenities provided good value for the price, but the property does need some upgrades. The dining options, particularly the pub food, were enjoyable, but there were some cleanliness issues that need to be addressed. Still, the pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff made our stay memorable.
