the breakfast offered a menu with great choices. i tried the eggs florentine, a dish prepared with care. vegetables at dinner were served separately, a detail i appreciated because it allowed for customizable portions, ensuring nothing went to waste.

Seaside Stay
helpful staff relaxing balcony
The staff was helpful. They ensured dogs felt welcome with treats. The breakfast and dinner had really high quality food. I found the location perfect. Walks along the coast were fine. Sitting on the balcony was relaxing during the evening.
The dining experience was subpar. I ordered soup. It arrived quickly, suggesting it was pre-prepared. The taste was therefore uninspired, disappointing given the price per night.
