Unexpectedly Great Food

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food at the resort's restaurant. I tried the fish and chips, and it was absolutely delicious! It felt like a special treat amidst the renovations. The atmosphere was cozy, and I enjoyed every bite.

Fantastic Kids' Area

The resort features a brand new playground and fire pit area that the children absolutely loved! It was a great spot for families, with plenty of room to run around. The kids made lots of friends and had a blast while we relaxed nearby.

Comfy and Spacious Suite

Our suite was very roomy, offering a comfortable king bed and a cozy sofa bed. It was clean, and I loved having space to unwind after our adventures. Despite some outdated features, the layout made our stay enjoyable.

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.
