March 2025On arrival the staff were very friendly and we were very pleased with our room. The breakfast was very good and there was a good choice. We enjoyed the pool and spa so will go again.

February 2025My recent stay at the hotel, was a breath of fresh sea air, a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. From the moment I stepped into the elegant lobby, I was greeted with warm smiles and efficient service. The check-in process was seamless, and I was quickly on my way to my room. Even though I made a mistake and booked the twin bed instead of double, they was ever so accommodating and sorted that for me. Their delicious dinner at the hotel's main restaurant its a must! Varied menu with locally sourced ingredients. The chicken and steak dishes were particularly impressive. Breakfast was a buffet-style affair with a wide selection of hot and cold options, catering to all taste and te service in both restaurants was attentive and friendly can't complain ! I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the wonderful Daniel and his colleague( forgot to ask for her name she served me on Wednesday dinner time) , who provided me with excellent service and is a true asset to your team. I cannot praise them both highly enough. The spa facilities are excellent, particularly the sauna, steam room, and aromatherapy room!

February 2025I went for a spa day with lunch included bought via red letter days. It was an absolute bargain. Spa facilities were great , really relaxing and clean. It was a shame the changing rooms were out of use and we had to go through the hotel to a small room with only 2 showers and 1 cubicle. The food was fantastic. I'm gluten free and the lunch menu didn't have much option but the chef baked me batter free cod and it was lovely. Will definitely go back.

February 2025Had a three night stay in this lovely hotel. The reception staff were great, El( Isabelle) on the bar was amazing. Knew how was next in line, made eye contact,so you knew, she had acknowledged you. Efficient and friendly. The only downside was the room was a bit dated and cold. However, would come back again

January 2025We had an overnight stay from a buy a gift we got for our wedding a few years back and found a great deal with the West Cliff including a massage, 3 course meal and breakfast the next day included. Spa was great only thing I’d say is that the men’s changing room is currently being renovated so you have to change upstairs and come back down. All other functions were working including the steam/sauna/relaxation room etc. Massage was lovely and relaxing and then the meal later on was really nice food was amazing as well as the staff. Breakfast the next morning was continental and help your self basis. All in all a great night away. Highly recommended should you have or want a little night away with a few added extras.
