"The service was good, specially the restaurant staff and chef, which were really welcoming and available to provide any food and treats. The buffet is wonderful, with wide variety and very tasty food. The downside was that the hotel is not located near the beach, so we were mislead by the first pictures showed at the booking platform. The hotel is under renovation."

"I really enjoyed my stay. I booked it specifically for its location (Sunset, restaurants/bars by the ocean) and I was not disappointed. It's true there is music outside at night but with the AC on, I couldn't hear anything so it's not very high. Breakfast was OK. People were welcoming and accommodating. Overall, I recommend this hotel! "

"I had a wonderful stay at Seacliff Hotel. In all my travels, this was one of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. It was beautifully decorated, bright, and had a lovely view of the beach. The staff were professional and incredibly helpful, especially Sporah, who kindly facilitated my check-in and made me feel so welcome. I can’t wait to come back on my next visit!"
