"I absolutely love The Sea Temple. We did all the tiling there back in 2004 when I was working with Jerry And The Tile Makers, and I knew from the moment we started that this would end up being my 'go to place'. I have stayed here countless amounts of times because it is all class, incredibly neat and tidy, it's peaceful and all the rooms/facilities are all of the highest standard. The staff are extremely friendly and professional, making your experience at The Sea Temple even more enjoyable....
