"Absolutely loved this stay! The hotel was in an amazing location. The beach and all the shopping was right out the door. The restaurant upstairs had gorgeous views especially for breakfast and in the evening. The spa had the perfect atmosphere. A heads up that you need to book the sauna ahead of time so make sure you get a booking because they fill up fast. Overall really loved this stay and will happily be back again."

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at the Novotel was fantastic, the older rooms are tired and in needing for a upgrade however the grounds and facilities make up for it. The new rooms are beautiful, spacious and worth the extra money. The staff were so helpful and lovely, activities for the kids were thoughtful and well planned. The only downside to this property is the food. The food selection was minimal and there were next to no vegetables offered. You are a 30 min walk to the closest IGA or other cafe so just something to consider if you don't have a car."
