I loved the gorgeous sea view from my Superior Room! Also, the pool area was super relaxing and perfect to chill after a long day. They even had a spa on-site for some pampering.
Felt very comfortable, no complaint.

The breakfast spread was outstanding, and staff interactions were mostly positive, with one standout employee providing exceptional service. However, the pool area was disappointingly small, and ongoing staff training seems necessary for consistent service. Parking is limited and operates on a first-come, first-serve basis, which could be inconvenient for guests during busy periods.

The sea view from my room on the 21st floor was truly spectacular, creating a serene atmosphere as the ocean met the horizon. The buffet dining experience was extensive, featuring mouth-watering local dishes like boerewors and lamb chops that captivated my taste buds. However, the sight of guests in hotel robes during meals was off-putting, detracting from the otherwise lovely ambiance. Additionally, while the room was comfortable, it lacked some luxury touches expected in a top-tier hotel.

The stay included stunning sea views that truly felt like a home away from home. Breakfast was enjoyable, but it would have been easier if tea was more accessible, as it took multiple requests to receive some. Unfortunately, the room was inadequately cleaned on the second day, highlighting a need for better housekeeping protocols.

I recently enjoyed a fabulous night here, indulging in a delectable selection at the buffet and soaking in the stunning sea views from my room. The outdoor swimming pool was a perfect spot to unwind, and I loved exploring the beach access for long walks at sunset. Just a heads-up, I had a brief hiccup with the room setup, but it didn’t dampen my overall experience! 😊

The stay was amazing, especially thanks to the relaxing rooftop pool and the beachfront access for some fun in the sun. I loved lounging by the pool and enjoying a full-body massage at the spa – pure bliss! Just wish the check-in process had been a bit smoother to kick off the trip perfectly. 😌

I had a fantastic time! The breakfast spread was superb, and I loved the view from my room. However, the photos made the room look a bit larger than it was. I'd definitely stay here again!

The room was spacious and had a stunning view of the ocean which made our mornings feel special. Oh, and the breakfast buffet was quite impressive, with a good variety of options to choose from that kept us full for hours.
It wasn’t exactly cheap, but you expect to pay for a decent experience.

In my wife’s opinion, the check-in process was overly complicated. It would be great for families if staff were more prepared to assist with luggage.

The breakfast exceeded expectations with a diverse selection including freshly baked croissants, organic juices, and hot options. The room had an excellent sea view, enhancing the stay experience, and the on-site business center provided efficient support for work needs.
