This is a nice, friendly place for families with small children who want to enjoy the beach. Breakfast was expensive. Staff is excellent. Beautiful views of Fistral Beach, but not a luxurious hotel.

Great place for families. Clean rooms, soft play, outside play, swimming pool, cinema and milk and cookies at night. Book breakfast as there is no where near by to eat. Also pre-book parking as the free parking outside is taken up by beach goers.

We came for a family break and stayed for 3 days. The staff were so friendly and helpful which made it a nice atmosphere. We really loved how it’s completely set up for children, this definitely took the stress of parenting off us. We really loved the cookie and milk before bed. I would recommend this hotel to a friend but advise to only stay for a short period of time.

Very kid friendly. The staff were very nice. The facility is a little old, the floors creak when you walk, and the most difficult part is the amount of unnatural fragrance they have in the room -- I assume to cover any dank smells. My family is very sensitive to these kinds of unnatural, chemical smells. Literally, my tongue hurt all night.

Fantastic short stay at this really great Hotel opposite Fistral Beach, convenient location and awesome facilities drew us here and we weren't disappointed. Great welcome with a build a bear for our Godson and amazing facilities for this of your traveling with kids. Plenty of adult spaces to relax too.

Tired tiny rooms that are overpriced. Kids running everywhere little insulation between floors means youre woken in the early hours. Fridge in room was warm/not working and view was a nasty courtyard but still so expensive. Fine if your a family but avoid for couples or business . Long walk to town but good for beach. Little or no pArking
