Rooftop review roundup: What a fabulous addition to the coast line. The areas are small: pool, bar area and resturant but big views – they have even identified the best spot for that all important snap with a selfie spot! The food and service is fabulous with lovely attention to detail – like your bread is wrapped in a paper bag to stop the birds swooping down on you!!! The only possible downside is the location. Itโs a good half hour / 45 min walk from the old town back towards the airport. Though to walk along the promenade, on a sunny winter day, was certainly not the worse way Iโve spent a Saturday! And thereโs a tram that runs really close behind it if you don’t fancy the stroll back. Definitely one of my all time favs.

Rooftop review: This is one of my all time favs – been far too many times an various trips. Food is fabulous, the sea view stretches for miles and you really could just spend an entire day sitting here. There’s a pool for hotel guests and a weather safe Resturant should the rain gods arrive. The sunset is the best time of day to go – worth a trip up for just that.

Warm/dry weather only? No thereโs a part under cover and worse case you can hide indoor if the rain lashes in though thereโs no heaters – a hot tub but no heaters!
Rooftop review roundup: As the name suggests – a splendid little find. What I loved most was being able to have a morning coffee with such incredible views. Staff are kind and friendly and service with a smile. The indoor part isnโt that fancy so I would really recommend it for the rooftop – and thereโs levels to it! One with a small pool & jacuzzi, one with dining and one small square for uninterrupted 360 degree views. As we were staying so close it became our go to first coffee and our night cap regular.

Rooftop review roundup: What a venue, what a view! This isn’t strictly speaking a rooftop but I’m ๐ฏ allowing it as it holds all the magic ingredients for one. Impressively the food matched the view though this is a seaside splurge meal, as you’d expect. However I was impressed there is a more affordable set menu in the week. Seating wise if you want to be as close to the sea (like me) then note those tables are for two people. (Like Sushi Samba in London). I assumed I would prefer being further out to sea but on the lower level. What was I thinking when I am all about height! The top ‘desk’ was the perfect spot for me and big thanks to Cloe for sorting that. One last point is being only April in the week it was surprisingly busy (though not that surprising when you consider how unique it is, so booking is a must. Bonne appetit.
