The Crusoe offers a memorable stay with many guests waking up to the soothing sound of waves right outside their windows. The location is praised for its stunning sea views, and some rooms even feature balconies where you can enjoy the scenery. While a few guests have mentioned the hotel exterior looking unremarkable upon arrival, many were pleasantly surprised by the comfortable and modern rooms inside, with some rooms offering direct access to sea views.

small haddock limited portion
The portion sizes left something to be desired during lunch. i ordered the small fish and chips. It was more like a 'minnow' and chips. honestly, half a small haddock is barely a snack, though they did offer a larger, pricier option. i suppose i just expected a bit more fish for the price, especially since i've had better experiences elsewhere.

decent stay with a few drawbacks

sea view relaxing sound generous size greasy food expensive prices small portion
I really liked the location right by the water. The views were great and the sound of the sea was so relaxing. the room i stayed in was a generous size and well-equipped with everything i needed. i also appreciated the little extra touches like the teacakes. That was charming!!!
the food in the restaurant was just average, in my opinion. it seemed quite greasy. i also found the prices to be a bit expensive for what it was. the small fish and chips portion was disappointingly small too.

Seaside Bliss

fine views luxury toiletries refillable bottles
The room had fine sea views from the balcony. The luxury toiletries were a treat after a long day. I appreciated the refillable bottles for shampoo, body lotion, and hand wash (good eco-friendly touch!).
The menu was slightly limited, but the food quality compensated.
