The Cole Boutique Hotel & Spa
A beachfront pool four minutes from Broken Bath Beach
About this hotel
The Cole sets its outdoor pool and terrace close enough to the water that Broken Bath Beach is a four-minute walk, giving guests a genuine choice between chlorinated and ocean swimming each day. The spa and wellness centre sits on the same grounds for the days the weather rules out both. Rooms carry balconies, minibars and flat-screen TVs, and the family-friendly restaurant runs American and seafood menus with continental, buffet and full English breakfast options, backed by full-day security across the property. The family-friendly restaurant serves American and seafood dishes in a romantic, modern setting, and rooms add minibars with tea and coffee makers alongside the balconies and full-day security across the grounds. Full-day security and a dedicated tour desk round out the practical side of a stay built around the four-minute walk to the sand.
- Beachfront-adjacent pool
- On-site spa
- Family-friendly restaurant
- 4 minutes to Broken Bath Beach
Our take
This pool-and-beach combination suits families and couples who want the option to switch between a hotel pool and the ocean within a few minutes' walk. The pool terrace is relatively compact given the beachfront focus, so travellers wanting a large resort-style deck should look elsewhere. The spa is a useful fallback on days the coastal wind makes outdoor time uncomfortable.
- ✓Walk the four minutes to Broken Bath Beach for a change from the hotel pool, it's genuinely close
- ✓Book a spa treatment on windy days when the beach and pool terrace both lose their appeal
- ✓Ask for a balcony room if you want the sea breeze without leaving your room
Why we love it
- Outdoor pool only four minutes from the beach
- Full spa and wellness centre on site
- Family-friendly restaurant serving American and seafood dishes
- Round-the-clock security across the property
Why guests love itFamilies booking The Cole get two swimming options within a few minutes of each other: the outdoor pool and terrace on site, and Broken Bath Beach a four-minute walk away for when the ocean looks more appealing. The spa covers the days neither works, and the family-friendly restaurant makes it easy to keep meals simple after a pool or beach afternoon rather than heading out to eat.
