My aunts had stayed here previously and really enjoyed themselves, so we thought we'd give it a try ourselves. The rooms are ENORMOUS - it makes the Hilton rooms look like a dollhouse and your average room features a kitchen complete with appliances and all, a really cool desk, a daybed for watching the equally enormous TV, and of course, a separate bedroom leading into an en-suite bathroom that is about the same size. The hotel features a lap pool, a sauna (or steam room), a gymnasium for keeping off the kilos, a few cafés and restaurants, and a choice of a park- or beach-view room.
The Ramada is set really close to the beach, so you can pop down in your togs and have a splash-a-rooni without having to call a cab. Now that's what I’d call swiffy! The sunset over the beach was beautiful, as we could see it directly in front of us in our beach-view room. To finish on a positive note (or a negative one if you want to get to sleep), there is also a nightclub, but if you like getting out into the sunshine, Jetty Rd is within walking distance and has really good pizza! Just make sure you ask for a room farther away from the nightclub if you want a good night's sleep!
