Breakfast was great , served with fresh ingredients each morning. The location provided amazing sea views and easy harbor access. A convenient bus service operated frequently, providing access who prefer not to climb the cliff.
The bar could benefit from a television. It was uncomfortably quiet sitting there with other guests. This would enhance the atmosphere and provide entertainment.
