Great location and hotel
Stayed here a few times - always brilliant. On this occasion food service was very slow (1hr from ordering to arriving) even though the restaurant wasn't busy. Great place, great hotel, lovely pool and friendly staff.

Beautiful hotel, needs air conditioning
Hotel was beautiful and clean. All the staff where very friendly, food was great with a great view of the beach. Only down side was the temperature of the room, we had a none sea view room (119) and it was really hot in the middle of the night. We had the door and window wide open with a fan on, both my kids where very sweaty and I had to get up twice to go stand outside in the middle of the night.

Lovely family stay
Absolutely lovely experience! We loved the play areas for children, the pool and sauna and the different bars and eating areas! The mini cinema for children was a good touch.

Family half term
We had a lovely time. It was our second time staying at the hotel. We love how close it is to the beach. Our son (6) lived the pool and the cinema.
Our room could have been bigger, not enough room for our clothes and wet beach towels to dry.
The cove restaurant is very pricey for avarge food options.
Staff is very friendly.

Room for improvement
Not as good as our first trip.
Bolts were loose in kids bunk beds. Shower needed repair.
Staff were helpfull to resolve, but both issues should not have happened.
2 meals were very good, but the steak was poorly done, asked for medium and got rare.
Location is great though, and facilities are good overall.
We may return for a 3rd mini break, unsure

Perfect location for Fistral Beach and surfing. Our family room was spacious with a terrace with a sea view which was lovely. The reception staff were faultless providing all the information you need about checking in and dealt with every question we had flawlessly. The lobby area is lovely to relax in and have a well-earned rest after a day out. The restaurant serves good food and has a good range of breakfast options.. and that leads me onto the restaurant team. Halo and his team are wonderful. Very attentive, very funny, very helpful - they turned a potentially stressful day due to an injury into a memorable one. Absolutely recommend the hotel to equally adults or families alike. We will be returning!

Great hotel for families in Newquay
Hotel is in a great location, the staff at check in were extremely helpful and the facilities are great for families. Lots to do to keep the little ones entertained including the pool, cinema and play areas. Kids were so excited to have their own drinks tray in the room and bathrobes for the pool.
Only one grumble, the breakfast was a fixed price, so not great value if your kids are fussy.
Will most certainly be looking to book another trip here with the family.
