Rooms feature nice layouts with good space and amenities for relaxation.
Significant issues with air conditioning across multiple rooms, leading to discomfort during the stay. Bathrooms lack safety features like grab rails, which might pose a risk, especially for older guests. Noise from vents and general maintenance problems detracted from the overall experience.

The family suite provided a fantastic view of the beach, making it a great space for relaxation with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Breakfast offered a variety of salads and delicious omelettes, enhancing the dining experience with a lovely view. the kitchenette was understocked, lacking some essentials like glasses, and noise from nearby vents affected the master bedroom's comfort. the rooftop pool was small, which detracted a bit from the overall experience, though the ocean’s proximity compensated for it.

missingWrote a review on 02 Julfriendly staffspacious roomgreat location
the marine is right on marine drive along the beachfront in summerstrand, making it easy to take walks. the friendly staff made our stay enjoyable, always ready to help. our standard two bedroom superior room with a sea view was spacious and clean. plus, the 24-hour fitness center was a great bonus for staying active!
a mild critique would be that some aspects of the hotel felt a bit outdated.
