Apartment was lovely and clean and spacious. Very well equipped and a great location. The outdoor space however was a disappointment. Dirty furniture and bbq area which didnt look like it had been cleaned in quite a while.

Just finished a fantastic week-long stay at Freshwater Bay and couldnt recommend this property enough. A stones throw from the beach, which was quiet and with great cliffside walks. Very clean, well furnished and equipped. Pictures dont do it justice, it is very spacious and airy.

It was our first time at this property and we weren't disappointed. What a fantastic apartment! It was everything that was promised and more.

A lovely apartment which was well equipped and very comfortable. A disappointing outside area which was not very welcoming because it needed a good clean. Unfortunately during our week's holiday there were barking dogs very close to the apartment, which were very disturbing. As guests we were asked to be respectful to the neighbours but the neighboRead moreur's were not respectful to us. Hide

We had a brilliant week, the appartment is very comfortable and exceeded expectations. It is much more spacious than it appears online. The location is brilliant too and we enjoyed a fab walk from Freshwater Bay to the Needles and back. We were a family of 6 and we felt very relaxed and happy in the appartment.

First impressions, wow! Lovely spacious property, amazing view (that isn't photoshopped!), ideal location for us, and really good appliciances! We really liked that the property had its own parking as this gave us reassurance that our car would be safe and off the road. Nice garden available for use if we wanted to use it. Absolute bonus that the pRead moreroperty had a washing machine and tumble dryer for use. Location was ideal for us, as we used it for a base to get out and about. Hide

Ocean view is an exceptionally nice apartment, very comfortably furnished and equipped to a high standard. It has lovely views across to the sea and a private garden. The hosts were very welcoming and it was a perfect home from home. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would happily stay there again.
