I stayed at the hotel for three weeks and I had a lovely time. The Slipway area is safe and great for solo traveling and I have loved hanging out by the pool. The staff is warm and kind. Can absolutely recommend a stay at Hotel Slipway.

My booking got cancelled by the hotel, neither they nor x-peed-I-a could inform me in time to make alternative arrangements. If the failure is with the agent then they need to improve their systems. If the fault lies with the hotel, and they repeat the failure, then their services shouldn’t be offered.
