    Noisy road intrusive during the day and making sleep difficult at night which was exacerbated by the noisy hot water tap system.

    Location excellent. Parking available. Sea view. Outside space.

    If you bring your pooch, you will need to whizz them round the block in the morning and evening, as there isn't a garden. The beach is really not far though, so it's easy.

    We loved the location of this funky seaside home- it's really close to the beach, and close walking distance to all that Whitstable has to offer. It was really easy to check in, and with the secure keypad entrance, we didn't have to worry about losing the key! The house was immaculate, very well equipped and comfortable- everything you could need was provided. Showers were good. The dog loved it too! Parking was a blessing- we didn't move the car for 3 days. There is a lovely coffee shop and ice cream parlour next door- perfect to pick up breakfast pastries to enjoy on the house balcony if you don't want to cook. The owner was very helpful and friendly via text. We really enjoyed our stay, and if we come back to Whitstable, we would definitely stay here again.

    Stairs could be a problem if you have mobility issues.

    Great property in excellent location.

    Good for a short stay - too noisy for longer

    It is not great for a longer stay. The convenient location is also a weakness. It is on a road through town which is not very busy but there is some occasional heavy traffic and the poor road surface and canyon effect of the street make it quite loud in the property. Also at the weekend you get noisy groups passing the property front and back. The minimalist decor is nice but the absence of rugs/curtains also added to the noise transfer issue. It is also not a very private property- you are very visible to neighbours and people walking along the seafront, particularly on the balcony or at night when the curtains are transparent. The kitchen could do with a few more items, such as extra glasses/cups. Also odd to see no microwave.

    This is a nice modern property in the heart of Whitstable. It is generally well-equipped and has parking. The bathrooms and kitchen are modern and work well. The beds are comfortable. A good spot for one or two nights where you want to take advantage of the bars and restaurants.

    Grubby and disappointed

    This apartment could have been great it looked so great from the advertised pictures however all I could say it was so grubby. We found it so awful we had to clean the whole kitchen and while doing so found glass on the floor (we had our dog with us) under the cabinets, the worktops and surfaces were greasy and stained to the point I went out and purchased cleaning products as they only provided antibacterial spray which did nothing and spent half of the first day cleaning. There was dust everywhere, we couldn't relax. The sheets and bedding were not fresh pressed cotton they looked like they had never been changed. To the point we left a day earlier I just wanted to go home. There were grubby marks up the wall on the staircase and the outside space hadn't been cleaned either. The cleanliness was so poor it's not just about cleaning the oven. The shelves above the kitchen and extractor were thick with sticky greasy dust. Even a picture at the top of the stairs had a layer on it. It made my skin crawl I was so unhappy after the first day as we've stayed in many places here before and wished we had booked those, but we wanted to try something closer to the beach. We have photos of all the above. I will stress I do not give bad reviews lightly but the price we paid and standard we received were miles apart. I have a disabled son and when we go away, the apartment or home needs to be well equipped and homely as we often have to stay in in the evening and prepare food and this wasn't what I expected. For some reason the pictures won't upload so if you need them direct to the owner please contact me.

    The location looked great on the details however the traffic from the Rd behind kept us up half the night, 2 motorbikes stopped right outside our house and started revving their engines, lorries and traffic noise constantly taking into account this wasn't in peak season this would be horrendous. Hardly the relaxing break we needed. Then, It was lovely having the beach in front however with a coffee shop below us also, there was additional noise from there, children shouting and screaming. I think the only plus was the walk to all the shops beach and restaurants were just a stone's throw away.

    Everything was excellent.

    This is a great place, ideally situated in a wonderful seaside town. Whitstable is always delightful and the new property has been thoughtfully built and yet retains a seaside feel without being twee.
