great location

inviting pool

poor breakfast

Great location near the beach made it easy to enjoy the sun and surf. The pool area felt inviting and relaxing, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring. Room comfort stood out. the bed provided a good night’s rest, and the modern decor added a fresh touch. I appreciated the spacious bathroom, which was well-maintained. breakfast left much to be desired—scrambled eggs were tasteless, and the variety felt limited. During my stay, I struggled with room service—response times could improve significantly. a good experience with some areas needing attention.

I loved the comfy sofa bed and the tasty full English breakfast that was included. The kids had a blast at the pool and the sun terrace was a nice spot to unwind. A minor hiccup was the breakfast variety, but it didn't take away from the fun we had. 🌞

Great location and comfortable stay

I stayed for 2 nights in a Standard Twin Room with Balcony and Ocean View. The rooms were quite beautiful, and I appreciated the soundproofing, allowing for a peaceful night's sleep. The staff quickly helped when I requested additional toiletries, showcasing their willingness to assist. breakfast options could be expanded since the area felt cramped during peak times, and a bit more variety would enhance the experience.

Had a lovely stay with my family at the Holiday Inn. We enjoyed the peaceful outdoor pool, perfect for kids to splash around, while our beloved pet added cheer to our adventure. Plus, the inviting beach was just a short drive away.
