Annabelle

Truly 5 star experience, beautiful settings, lovely gardens and pool. Fantastic breakfast, attentive ad friendly staff.

This was our second visit and we were not disappointed. It is a fabulous hotel. From the moment you arrive you know you have made a great choice, all the staff are friendly and welcoming and provide an excellent service, they seem genuinely happy in their role and are part of the reason we came back for a second visit and plan to return in the future. The facilities are fabulous as is the buffet breakfast. The hotel is in a great location, on the sea front with shops and restaurants close by and just a short stroll to the harbour.

Stayed here for 2 weeks. Room was amazing and toiletries and coffee was topped up daily. The staff were very attentive and friendly. The house keepers were also lovely. Gave the hotel a vibe that it seemed to be nice place to work. I had a noisy shouty neighbour upstairs one afternoon, rang reception and I t was dealt with by security. The chair in the restaurant didn’t make for a calm environment, they all dragged and squeaked across the floor. The meals were nice but very samey. I went for lunch once and it was the same as dinner. No choice of a light snack. At mealtimes there were lots of different salads but nothing to go with them. A nice chicken breast would’ve been nice, but the choices were chicken curry or beef stew. No chips either, who doesn’t like chips. We ate in the outside bar for lunch. Leaf lower outside at 7am wasn’t great and the gym toys on the harbour squeak all day. The hotel is beautiful and well kept. The bar on the foyer is a nice place for a drink. The different pool areas are lovely and the gardens are well maintained. Overall a nice stay.

This was my second stay at The Annabel Hotel, and it didn't disappoint — if anything, it confirmed why I loved it the first time. As a solo traveller, I really appreciate how attentive and welcoming the staff are; I always feel completely at ease here. The hotel and grounds are just as beautiful as I remembered. Thank you to the whole team for making it such a special place to stay, both times!

As a party of more than 30 family members and friends, ranging in age from 2 to 86, we had the most wonderful stay. We were celebrating a family wedding and chose this hotel as our base. Most of our group stayed on a bed and breakfast basis, while a couple of families opted for half board or full board. We also stayed in a variety of room types. All of the rooms were spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean, with daily housekeeping ensuring everything was well maintained. Breakfast offered an extensive hot and cold buffet with plenty of choice. The selection of restaurants serving international cuisine for lunch and dinner was excellent, with delicious, generous portions and great value considering the quality. We spent time at all three pools and were always able to find sunbeds. The pool staff worked tirelessly and fairly to ensure beds were available throughout the day. Ordering drinks and food directly to our sunbeds was quick, easy, and efficient. Although the pool bar became busy in the late afternoon, the cocktails were definitely worth the wait! The spa was reasonably priced, and the therapists were friendly, professional, and highly experienced. The sauna and facilities was also excellent and a great way to relax. The reception team, especially the three younger ladies, were absolutely outstanding. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they always greeted us with a smile. They went above and beyond to help organise everything our large group needed, making our stay completely stress-free. The hotel's location is another major highlight. Situated just across the public path from the beach, only a five-minute walk from restaurants and evening entertainment, and close to historical attractions and shopping centres, it is perfectly positioned for any type of holiday—whether you're travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or as part of a large group. We had an unforgettable stay and would highly recommend the Annabelle. We would happily return in the future.
