We really enjoyed ourselves and would return. Thank you for your hospitality.

The property is very comfortable with lots of space. It’s very close to the beach and a short, lovely walk to the town. Parking was easy and it was a great location from which to explore the area.

The bathrooms weren’t particularly clean, but hopefully that was a one off as the rest of the property was very tidy and well kept.

Lovely flat. Good location. Would happily stay there again.

Breakfast wasn't provided. It was a five minute walk from the sea. It was clean and light with everything we needed. Good location to two cafes that did excellent breakfasts.

There were blinds at the bedroom windows that let in a lot of light.

A wonderful stay in Whitstable

Great location with both the Sea and Town easy to reach by foot. Apartment was well furnished and well equipped. Free street parking right outside the front door. Comfortable apartment that I would definitely book again.

The stairs leading into the apartment were very steep so tricky to manage when carrrying luggage.

A great stay in Whitstable. Perfect location and well appointed flat

Location is great and the property is lovely

The tv controllers don’t work properly due to wear and tear. Only a minor issue.

Fantastic location but not perfect.

The location was fantastic. Comfortable mattress with good quality pillows and duvet.

Lack of places to hang clothes (not coats) and only 2 hangers per room. Shower-head needed descaled and extractor fan was caked in thick dust. One bathroom only had half a toilet roll in it. Only one bedside lamp in each room. You had to lift the bed up to find the ironing board. The apartment felt grubby, lots of dust bunnies and a grimy hob. The outside of the windows were so dirty it was difficult to see out. The kitchen windows are blown, so you can’t see out of those. No cupboard space for food. Really noisy en-suite door which disturbed sleep during the night. Large patch of blood located on mattress protector, which should be replaced if the stain can’t be removed.

Great Location, Great apartment for short stay in Whitstable

We loved the space. A well equipped Kitchen, and spacious Living-room which were great! Check in was super simple and it was great to be able to easily contact the rental company. The location is fantastic, quick access to the High Street or the beach.

The bathrooms were small. And the property hadn’t been deep cleaned for a while. I hunted for the ironing board which was under a bed and thick with dust. The air extraction in the bathroom was also thick with dust. There are no curtains at the windows (only blinds) so the bedrooms were really light in the morning. It is a bit tired, the property could do with new carpets and a lick of paint.

Convenient with all the comforts of home

Location is fantastic because it is very central. The beach, businesses and transport is all within 5-10 minute walk. Fully equipped kitchen, good heating and two bathrooms were a plus

The stairs were a little steep which made managing suitcases difficult. But I think all the properties are designed like this so it is not the fault of the owner/property. If you are driving you will have a problem parking because there is no parking lot. This seems to be an issue for the whole street. Roads are also quite narrow.

great location and comfortable.

brilliant location just off the high street and close to the coast too. nice big sofa and to too.

it is quite small in the bedroom and bathrooms. would also be good to have oil for cooking and a few other bits so you don’t have to buy whole bottles etc.

On the whole we really enjoyed it, everything else in the flat was good

Property is in a good location & easy to get to all amenities

I think that pillow protectors should be used in the bedroom with the ensuite bathroom. Not much space for hanging clothes & more coat hangers needed.

had a fantastic weekend. great location, great accommodation … will be booking again.. we loved it !!!

great location. clean and everything you need

step down from kitchen is not ideal if you have mobility issues, could easily miss it and you are opposite the stairs. maybe a gate on the kitchen would make it safer

Beautiful cosy gem of a weekend getaway.

There was no breakfast included - however we knew that in advance. We did our own had a really lovely stay and the welcome book is fantastic gives loads of info.

Parking - it took us an hour to park but we did do it in the end.

Lovely seaside town apartment

This is a gorgeous apartment in an amazing location, just perfect for town and the beach. Very comfortable, lovely decor, well equipped, clean and cosy. Stairs are steep, as noted, including when passing by the top on the landing, which is a bit scary, so maybe not good for kids or anyone with mobility issues. Bathrooms are tight, but high spec. Tricky to get near the loo in one of them. All other rooms are good sized and nicely furnished. No problems with neighbours, though I think they had a seance on Sat night! 😂 Overall, highly recommended and we would stay again.

Communication was impersonal and automated, but sufficient and we had no problems except that it says you can leave your bags inside the door/lobby for a few hours after checkout, but there really isn't space to do so and the cleaners didn't have any idea about this so we didn't feel comfortable to leave them.

+ Super location, comfy & bright rooms, Netflix/Prime. - WC flush & shower drainage to be fixed.

Location. Having Amazon Prime and Netflix. This SHOULD be included in the description of the flat as it was a BIG attraction when we fancied a relaxing night in.

We asked for directions as we walked around Whitstable but a street map would would have been appreciated. The flush of the toilet in the bathroom takes approx. 30 minutes to pop up again and is noisy during this time. The bath needs a shower mat or non-stick surface under the shower! The ensuite shower needs to be unclogged - stood in a pool of water! I don't think it had been cleaned due to 3 black body hairs! In the kitchen a drainer would be helpful for hand washing & a towel for drying hands appreciated. The glass paned door to the lounge has a broken handle on the side of the lounge - we had closed the door and thankfully slid the catch & opened it - we thought we were going to be stuck the night there as we would have had to wait until the next morning to call and speak to you for assistance! The mattress protector had stains! Stained pillows - needs pillow protectors! Body hair in the ensuite shower tray! On the page to work the TV/Netflix etc. a strand of black hair & similar black hair on the sofa which I removed. My bracelet broke and when I bent down to the carpet to pick up the beads I found other 'bits' on the carpet ie, had not been vacuumed well. Due to the hair on the sofa and shower tray, yucky standing in pooled water in ensuite shower plus carpets not vacuumed well; in fact I do not think the shower tray was cleaned at all. In spite of very comfy mattresses, we felt creeped out sleeping on the beds with stains under the pillowcases and sheets. £120 charge to my friend and I for Covid deep clean - we consider that we were hugely overcharged for reasons - above. Minor thing - include a microwave? (not a deal breaker)

okay

location is perfect -2mins from the beach, thereis limited on street parking but we did always manage to get it. the lounge is decent size, good TV.

no microwave, could certainly of been a bit cleaner, needed some more kitchen utensils/cutlery, and it would be nice if basics like foil could be provided. The rooms are very small, as always with british seaside holidays you pay a lot for what you get.

Lovely flat in a great location, spotless and with everything we needed for a great week away.

Great location, we could walk to everything. Lovely furnishings and facilities. Everything we needed was there. Both rooms were double beds and the bathrooms were lovely and modern.

Duvets on the beds were a bit hot for the summer weather, would be good to just have a sheet and throw.

Terrific property

This property is a little gem but not that little. Great facilities and beautiful comfy beds. Would recommend to any one. Very good for two couples.

They can’t change this but the stairs from the front are very steep.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Whitstable and this property was an excellent location for us.

This property is well located, within walking distance of many useful facilities and the beach is an easy walk away. The bed we used was comfortable and there are two shower room, one with a bath and a well equipped kitchen. The TV is modern and the heating, if needed, is easy to switch on. The locals are friendly and there is a very good cafe nearby for breakfast.

Parking can be an issue, but we hired someone’s drive and so it didn’t matter. We would have liked a Microwave, but that didn’t matter either.

The accommodation was the highpoint of a work visit that was disrupted in every other way!

Charmingly and functionally decorated. Close to centre, but on a quiet street with nearby Coop grocer.

A nice property in a great location, but the owners are let down by their holiday rental company

The property is set in a perfect location close to the beachfront and had is well stocked with all the items you are likely to need for the duration of your stay.

Very disappointingly, we discovered large brown stains on our duvet when we arrived at the property and the en-suite bathroom had some plumbing issues. Unfortunately, our disappointment was compounded by the holiday rental company, Blue Fox Rentals, failing to respond and fix the issues we reported to them on the first day of our visit. They also failed to respond to our subsequent texts and voicemail messages.

This apartment is very well located to discover all Whitstable has to offer

The location on a very quiet road midway between the high street and the sea is just ideal. The property was very clean and extremely well presented. Would recommend for two couples or a small family.

Both bedrooms are a bit tight but manageable.

Nice flat in a good location. Clean and comfy and ideal for a short break.

Location, facilities, cleanliness and efficiency of the hosts in communication. We arrived quite late on the first day but no problems in getting in.

Nothing. All good and no surpises.

Lovely location, shame about poor standard of cleanliness, considering how much rent and fees we pd.

Cleanliness of kitchen was terrible, all cutlery, crockery, had to be cleaned before we could use it. Cooker hood and splashback in a terrible state, under beds filthy, skirting boards and windows filthy, blinds and windows in each room look like they have never been cleaned. Overall in need of a a deep clean . Bathrooms had mould around seal lines.Notified the landlord and cleaning agency, still awaiting an answer from them. I feel my input has been ignored. Would not recommend this property unless it has been cleaned adequately. Rubbish bins not emptied, rammed full of previous weeks smelly rubbish, flies around the bins and in very dirty porch and entrance to flats.

Great location

The location is great, really like this end of town, very close to the beach and to Windy Corner cafe which serves great breakfasts but you do need to book at busy times.

The rubbish bins outside the house where extremely full and very smelly, found it a problem removing and putting our rubbish in the bin,
