Before booking: rooms
Layout and sleeping arrangements
Confirm bed configuration, maximum occupancy, connecting-room guarantees and where extra beds are placed. A large floor area does not establish a separate bedroom.
View, privacy and access
Check the named view category, balcony or pool arrangement, nearby shared paths and step-free access. Request the specific information that matters to your party before booking.
What the rate includes
Match breakfast, lounge access, transfers and cancellation terms against the exact room offer. An attractive room name does not guarantee those benefits.
