   Such a beautiful spot overlooking the river and just next to the pool. Reasonably priced and the food was fine. Very enjoyable experience.

   We arrived at Vibe Hotel, email confirmation for our luncheon booking at Driftwood Social in hand only to be told the restaurant was closed. Very disappointing. Winter hours were in force from Monday 10th and it did not open until 4pm. Not impressed that we were not informed of the change and that our booking was cancelled. Poor form Vibe and Driftwood Social.

   Great service, the bar waitress acknowledged us straight away and had a table set up for us. The food was quick and service impeccable.

   Great place for a poolside social gathering with water views. The menu is simple but delicious and reasonably priced. It’s bar service (not table service) but you have the option of using the pool when you dine. Great for a Sunday session, good music, and great atmosphere x

    This is not a restaurant unfortunately which was disappointing. It is a hotel pool area with a casual bar menu with shared tables. Nice place to have a drink and watch the sun go down. However, remember it is a hotel pool area and any ambience you might otherwise enjoy is spoilt by children screaming and jumping into the pool. The Vibe Hotel would be better to offer the first floor breakfast area as a proper restaurant.
