How we worked this out

These figures are computed, not measured on foot. Walking times use the mapped streets and paths at about 4.8 km/h, with steps counted slower. Driving times use typical road speeds plus time for junctions and parking, so allow extra at busy times. The slope compares the height of the hotel with the nearest beach. "Steep" means an average of 8% or more. Noise counts mapped bars, pubs and nightclubs in a straight line.

Computed 30 Oct 2026. Map data (c) OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL. Elevation: AWS Terrain Tiles (NASA SRTM 30 m and national datasets such as USGS 3DEP).
