Hotel Calypso

Loved this hotel. Room was comfortable, having a bath tub rather than a shower. Mattress was surprisingly good. The beach and the restaurants on the waterfront were a stone throw away from the hotel. The breakfast was abundant and delicious and the rooftop pool clean, and always with lovely music in the background. The staff were all polite and helpful. The only downside was the lack of private parking, nevertheless there is a largish parking area 3 minutes walk from the hotel.

Had a great time here so would definitely recommend. My star rating is based on individual assessment. The staff here were knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and most importantly really easy to talk with. Can't praise them enough. The hotel is of an era, yes. But that era is not too distant so whoever is complaining in their review....well.... I can only imagine they spend too much time on trigger happy sites and have attention spans that blister under close scrutiny. The breakfast was a great spread and I saw folk from all walks enjoying the offerings. Maybe the coffee machine is a little under par compared with the rest of the course. Overall I enjoy visiting spaces that are of a time. Whatever standards we are expecting in an over consumerized, cookie cutter, Starbucks franchise enthused extreme this is not.....thank goodness. Let's remain a little calm and accept that things, when they can, should be simple for the earth's sake.

Beautiful hotel
Unfortunately our room was situated at the back of the hotel,the view was unsightly ugly.
Originally when we booked it was said the pool wouldn't be open but after getting in touch with the hotel they said it would be open but wouldn't be manned,however when we went to use it It was closed off due to maintenance.This was extremely disappointing as I had my 3 grandchildren with us.

We stayed in a sea view superior room for 4 nights and enjoyed our stay. The location is amazing, and most of the staff great. Other reviewers say the hotel is outdated - yes it’s of an era, but well cared for - I found it quite charming and it mostly has everything you should need. Breakfast is an excellent spread. Would stay again.

Rooms are really clean but bathrooms are in urgent need of refreshing. Staff is helpful and localization is perfect. Good prices at the rooftop bar, amazing pina colada there as well as local wines. Taking one star because breakfasts are boring and mediocre - eggs are not tasty, lacking fresh veggies and food does not vary day to day. All in all I would recommend it :)

Need to change the breakfast menu every now and then. I stayed for 4 nights on a bed and breakfast basis and the menu was always the same. The hotel very clean but needs to do some refurbishment for a 4 star.
