Really good Stay
delicious foodocean viewsoiled carpets
I found the food in the restaurant delicious. The whiskies and chocolates provided in the room represented a nice touch. The golf course allowed me to enjoy a great game. I appreciated the excellent food and fabulous view of the ocean during meals.
I noticed fixed soap dispensers that are not within reach for someone taking a bath instead of a shower. I also observed soiled carpets in public areas. They looked stained and frankly unacceptable. No soap was provided, despite my asking for it.

I really enjoyed the hotel's really good golf course. I could easily walk to the beach (a good short stroll, indeed). The food was delicious, and the service felt genuinely friendly.
The fixed soap dispensers in the bathroom were inconvenient, especially while taking a bath. There was no soap provided initially, even after asking.
