Coastal Cove
Great flat. Very clean and welcoming. Close to local restaurants and lovely walks along the quay. Bonus was a secure place to leave our bikes!

Flat One The Beaches
Accommodation is very homely and comfortable with lots of home comforts. It is a perfect location for access to beach, harbour and town with ease of access to some lovely bars and restaurants. Fantastic location for beautiful walks. We’ve stayed here many times and will do so again.

Luxury Penthouse 2-Bed Apt w/ Sea View, Gym & PKG
This is a great property in a beautiful and quiet area. Everything you need is available and the bed is very comfortable. Instructions and communication were detailed and helpful. The centre of Bournemouth is just a short walk. Thanks for having us.

Beachside Apt.2, Pilots Point. Spacious, sea views
Fantastic views! lovely and clean all throughout. WiFi had good signal. Restaurants and shops nearby. Short walk to the bus stop. It was perfect for our mini holiday!

By The Quay
I have just spent a couple of nights at Emily's place with my daughter. The flat is really lovely. It is absolutely spotlessly clean, stylish, and homely. Lots of thought has clearly gone in to make it a comfortable place to stay. The bed and sofa bed are so comfortable. Good quality kitchen wear, bathroom, and TV make for a luxurious feel. The location is very central, with the added bonus of parking. Luke & Emily we're very communicative and very kindly allowed us to check-in early. Super hosts and highly recommendable place to stay.

Riverside Retreat - Free Parking
Sadly, due to the hours I was working, I didn't have too many opportunities to use the enormous balcony and furniture, but on the few occasions I did, it was great looking out over the river and watching the sunset. Being there for a month, It was essential that I had somewhere homely and comfy, and this certainly was. There were other shocks too, like kitchen knives that were SHARP! Good selection of cooking equipment. Useful bits and pieces in the kitchen cupboards! Amazing! Hope it's still free in 2027!

'Coastal Views' Apartment at Southbourne
We had a great stay at Ruth's place. Everything was as described and the flat was just as good as all the previous reviews have stated. The flat is very near to two pubs - the Spyglass and Kettle and the Commodore. The Spyglass has lovely seating outside and the Commodore has a very good menu. We had some great days out and were able to get the number 70 bus outside the apartment to some of them. Firstly, Hengistbury Head which only takes about 15 mins on the bus. There is a cafe there and another one on the other side where all the posh beach huts are. You can also pick up the same bus there to go to Christchurch which is only about another 10 minutes in the same direction. We also got the same bus into Bournemouth. Other recommendations are: Compton Acres which is a beautiful garden, set in woodland and Harry's Rocks which involves a pleasant one mile walk from Studland Car Park. Thank you, Ruth, for a wonderful stay.

Swanage Centre of Town Apartment Superb Sea Views!
We had a lovely weekend at Bev's place. The apartment was lovely, very comfortable and in a great location. The sea views are amazing! Bev is a very responsive host. We can't wait to return one day.

Seaside Cottage with panoramic sea views.
We had a lovely weekend! Perfect location for walking to the beach and had an extremely relaxing time!

SUNNY DAYS - Free parking. 3 minutes from beach
Lovely house with the added bonus of a parking space. The house was beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. It was very well stocked with everything you could want and it's a very easy short walk to the beach. I absolutely would recommend this.

Wow sea view! Lovely Yarmouth detached cottage
We had a fantastic 3-night stay at this cozy detached house in the Isle of Wight. The stunning sea view was a real highlight, and the peaceful location made it ideal for a relaxing break. The house was clean, warm, and perfect for families, with plenty of space and a well-equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. Both the host and property manager were very helpful and responsive, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for a family getaway—we’d love to come back!

Beautiful Dorset getaway with stunning sea views.
We had a great week, enjoying coastal walks and cycling and the local pub. The house is very comfortable and well-equipped. It has the most wonderful views from the open plan living space which you can’t really appreciate from the photos. Graeme was really helpful / responsive.

Seafront coastal holiday home near New Forest
We had a great Easter in this lovely apartment. It was beautifully kitted out and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is great, just minutes from the beach and it also has a couple of great restaurants and coffee shops within a 10minute walk. We would definitely stay here again next time we visit the area. Thanks Nicky!

Iconic Beach Front Stay | The Watch House, Lepe
Pure Bliss by the Sea This place is honestly a dream. Right on the water, super peaceful, and just stunning in every way. The design is super minimal but beautiful—everything you need, nothing you don’t. It’s got this calming vibe that makes it really easy to just relax and breathe. It’s one of those spots where you instantly feel like you could stay forever. Whether you’re watching the waves, reading a book, or just doing nothing at all—it all feels perfect here. Total reset from the real world. If you’re looking for a place to recharge and escape for a bit, this is it. Already planning my next stay.

Abbey Water Rooms
Sue’s place was perfect to explore Romsey, 2 minutes walk to the town square along the river. Check in was easy, communication was good and the beds were very comfortable.

April's Cottage, sea views close to Chesil Beach
The Cottage is full of character, cosy and in a quiet location, the local shop is nearby, the pebble beach and Cafe nearby. The Bus service is every 10 minutes to anywhere. Lovely Sea view from the Roof Terrace.

New Upscale Contemporary Apartment - River Views
This apartment was exactly as described. It had a beautiful view of the river. Bed was comfortable and the apartment was immaculate. Ted was very responsive to questions and was readily available to help if needed. We would definitely stay at Ted’s beautiful apartment again if we ever return to Southampton!

We had a really enjoyable mini break. The flat was ideal for us and we loved the way it was decorated and furnished. Thank you to Andreas for being a wonderful host.

Penthouse, 10 min walk from beach, Parking on Site
60 steps from pavement to flat, but so worth it. lovely flat, just like the pictures. stairs a bit narrow. comfy bed, netflix, and lovely plants

Stunning Beachfront apartment overlooking the sea
This is a beautiful apartment right on the sea front. It was super clean, easy to access, spacious and perfect for our long weekend getaway. We will absolutely be returning!

Stunning Apartment With Panoramic Seaviews
A great few days stay at Tara’s place over the bank holiday weekend. Great communication with Tara (very responsive) and provided us with details on local building work which though didn’t impact our stay greatly was really appreciative. A great location to watch the world go by and our two daughters loved the bunk beds! Highly recommend.

East Winds Apartment Fabulous sea view 🏖
I had a fantastic stay at this beachfront apartment. The location was unbeatable, with stunning sea views and plenty of great restaurants and things to do right on the doorstep. The apartment itself was lovely—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Martin was an exceptional host, very helpful and accommodating; he even offered us an early check-in, which made our arrival so much easier. The only minor downside was that in the morning, we could hear the café below as it prepared to open, but it didn’t detract from the overall experience. I’d definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again!
