Fantastic hotel, close to the chain ferry and bus services, beauitful sea veiws, on the beach amazing spa and out door heated pool, fantastic service, cant fault it, what a gem, also dog friendly
We had a pleasant stay at the Haven; the room was quiet and all the staff were friendly and helpful. The location is great for the ferry and a short drive to Poole and Bournemouth.
Where the hotel was situated was lovely with access to the private beach. The staff were a little slow and unattentive. The pool has a bar but for beer you have to walk to other end of the hotel which is very odd. Nice and clean and breakfast i cannot fault, would stay again.

The staff were friendly
and were very helpful with any given situation
Nice hotel with great facilities. Outdoor pool is warm and sauna / steam rooms were decent. However, I expected more of a view from a 'premium room' (picture attached). Annoyingly, the leisure centre (roof in picture) made an annoying humming throughout the night.
Check-in was probably the fastest I've ever encountered and all staff with the exception of one miserable bar worker were absolutely excellent. Leisure staff were partcularly excellent.
Breakfast was very nice and dining has great views out to sea.
