The unit was very spacious. It had everything we needed. Right next to the pool too which the kids loved. The only downside was our shower. The shower head was obviously broken so it was taped together with black tape- which was fine. However we weren't able to use shower as a shower because the head wouldn't stay on its holder. So it was handheld all the time. This meant we had to turn of the shower when shampooing or shaving otherwise water would spray everywhere. So that was really annoying. Otherwise it was a good place. Laundry was awesome too. The kids loved the pool and slides.

Bathroom walls were full of mould. We were there 5 nights & the Black Dolphin didn’t come & give fresh towels or clean the room or take garbage once. The games room is from the 1970s. The spa was empty. The pool was just “ok”. Very dated & musty. Dishes had to be done in the bathroom sink beside toilet. Wifi was useless. Won’t return.

Great area, staff were super friendly and cabins were clean and had everything you need! Bedrooms did get a little chilli at night (stayed in July so mid winter) so maybe an extra blanket would be advised! Had a great stay and would definitely recommend and stay again!
