When it comes to family holidays, the details matter.

With complimentary stays for under 3s and comprehensive family amenities, we've created an environment where parents can unwind while children thrive. From childcare facilities to family dining, every aspect is designed for young families. Our experienced team understands family travel dynamics, see how we ensure every family member feels valued and cared for throughout their stay below:

Family Rooms

Step into our vibrant, coastal haven where family comfort meets contemporary style. Our thoughtfully designed family rooms offer generous space and flood with natural light, creating the perfect sanctuary for you and your little ones. We've proven that family-friendly doesn't mean sacrificing sophistication – expect beautiful coastal interiors, stunning views and all the space your family needs to spread out and truly relax.

Choose from our spacious sea view rooms, sea view villa or our apartment-style accommodation. Even our double sea view rooms accommodate families with under 3s perfectly, with space for cots without compromising on style or comfort. Every room is designed to ensure everyone sleeps peacefully while maintaining the elegant atmosphere you deserve.

The Play Space Creche

Every parent deserves a moment to breathe - our Play Space Creche transforms "me time" from a luxury into a reality. Book your under-5s into our engaging two-hour sessions with our expertly trained childcare team, where fun takes centre stage while naturally encouraging learning and development. Your little ones will dive into creative play and all under the watchful care of our Enhanced DBS-certified team. Meanwhile, you'll finally have that precious time to truly unwind – because you're on holiday too!

Don't miss our Over 5s Kids Club, and consider pairing your childcare time with one of our rejuvenating spa treatments – the perfect recipe for complete relaxation. Or tap into your artistic side with our creative workshops where you can learn new skills, quiet your mind and craft unique memories to take home.
