Look at these posers! They're enjoying some warmth during #goldenhour and probably waiting for a fisherman to bring them breakfast. This beach runs along the Pumistone Passage which is very popular for lovers of all types of water sports. It's also great for little toddlers beginning to swim. I just love the colours especially in the morning light 💖

Breakfast was good. Pool and waterpark is not heated despite the flyer given to us from repetition saying it is heated all year round. Rooms were spacious but worn out. Hot water went out unexpectedly for over 12 hours and notice wasn't given until it was already out.

The room was not particularly clean - average. The pool was supposed to be heated but was quite cool - unable to stay in for very long. The lifts were very good - quiet and efficient. The parking spaces are very tight and we had to use the overflow parking if we went out during the day in the car. ...
