What guests say about the pool
In their own words
Great, luxurious facilities including gym, spa, pool (pretty chilly in February!) and lovely rooftop bar watching the sunset with evening cocktails.
The rooftop offers stunning sea views, especially around sunset. Calm, elegant, and relaxed, it’s the kind of place where time slows down naturally.
