5 stars all the way. We had our event there and it was effortlessly easy. Ella and the team made it a breeze to organise my event & help run it on the night. Our guests had a very comfortable stay at the hotel. The food was amazing! It was worth every cent and we will be back for our next event for sure! Best place on the coast
