The hotel is perched on the cliffs overlooking the rocky coves and sea, making it an ideal spot for exploring the area. The rooms, though a bit dated and with some maintenance issues in the bathroom, offer outdoor hot tubs for added luxury. The service was friendly and attentive, with staff always available to assist. Dining was satisfactory with a good variety of choices. The location, while stunning, may not be suitable for families with young children due to cliff-top walks lacking protective barriers.

The hotel was an amazing stay, offering a height of luxury in the rooms, although some maintenance issues like dirty carpets and peeling paint were a downside. The service was outstanding with very pleasant and helpful staff. The location was perfect right next to the sea, though lacking in some informative materials in the rooms. The dining experience was excellent with a great variety of choices, but the manager seemed occasionally too busy. Overall, a luxurious experience with a few minor drawbacks.

I stayed at the hotel for one night in a Hot Tub suite right after the golf open, and found it to be conveniently located within minutes of the venue. The rooms were positioned across the front of the hotel, offering a unique perspective below the regular accommodations. The service was a bit lacking, with some confusion about roles and a delay in housekeeping, but overall the location was lovely overlooking the North Sea.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The hot tub suite offered a glorious view over the bay, but the room was not very clean and had a strong dog odor. The staff were friendly but made some inappropriate comments. The location was great for enjoying the views over the sea, but the atmosphere was marred by some negative aspects.

The hotel is in a lovely location overlooking the water, with a relaxing hot tub, but some rooms need refurbishment. The staff is welcoming and helpful, offering a great range of breakfast options. The location is perfect, right on the coast, and the dining experience is good, with some minor replenishment delays.

The room was a little better than room 3, with some tired elements, but clean bedding. The furniture was in better condition but still dated. The room attempted a revamp with paint, giving a cheap look. The curtains were blackout but not the best quality, and the bed was uncomfortable.
