Great place to stay.

The location was great -- walked to restaurants and activities in the harbor. Big benefit was the outdoor space -- patio with table for cards/games and balcony for enjoying a cup of coffee or a glass of wine looking out over the harbor. Communication could have been better -- long wait for response prior to visit. Had a problem that was resolved completely but had to call more than once to get help.

Great location

The house is in the perfect location to enjoy the best views of Poole Bay and enjoying walking in Harbourside Park and Poole Park (which also has an excellent cafe and activities.) Walking a circular route through both parks early each morning, seeing the sun rise, made the holiday for me; it's beautiful. The house couldn't be closer to the quayside and its pubs and restaurants. We'd recommend Bingley's Bistro & Da Vinci's, both family run and, a little further away at Sandbanks, Rick Stein's harbourview restaurant is superb for the food, the service and the view. The shops are also close by, though the quality of shopping available in Poole wasn't great - on the other hand, it gives the credit card a rest. The house itself provides great views from the first floor balcony and sitting room, and a comfortable & relaxing place to spend time. The conservatory has a good size table for meals and board/card games. All in all a great place for a holiday.

Sea Breeze

Lovely house and location. Very convenient for all that Poole Harbour has to offer including access to the park. Great pathway to walk along the sea/harbour front. The house is spacious and has fab views from a balcony overlooking the harbour plus a small but pretty outdoor space.

We found the property was very clean throughout, and well presented.

The location had a nice view of the bay, and was only a very short walk to center. Off road parking was good. I would definitely recommend this owner and property. And will use it again when we visit the area.

Fantastic location

The property was in a excellent location with views over Poole harbour. It is walking distance of cafes bars and restaurants. The property was very clean but tired in places.There was a lovely vase of flowers on our arrival and we arrived early but was able to park up and explore the resort. The kitchen was tired with door handles missing. There was no champagne flutes which was such a shame. The ensuite shower cubicle was stiff and we were afraid of shutting in case we broke it. Overall we had a lovely holiday and enjoyed our stay.

After our holiday to Italy was cancelled we were looking around to see what dregs were left on the UK market. We stumbled on this absolute gem! Perfect location, beautiful views, lovely house - what more can you want! Oh I know- a very welcome and gracious host! Stephanie was wonderful, thank you so much. I can’t recommend this holiday home enough!

2/10 Terrible

Disappointing

The only thing the property had going for it was the view. The couch in the lounge only comfortably seated 2 people due to the curve of the sofa. Not sure how long the property had been on the renting market, but the kitchen was sparse in utensils and cooking pans. We had to buy our own to bake a casserole. The mattresses in all 3 bedrooms were terrible, even after sleeping on top of duvets. The king bed is actually two single beds pushed together. The double is an annex room with no natural lighting or Windows - the room is off the dinning room in the conservatory. The house is not well insulated as it was either too hot or extremely cold, very difficult to get a constant temperature even with the heating on constant. The sensor for the stair lights was on and off every 5 mins. No hooks on doors in the bedrooms to hang up dressing gowns and no rails in the bathrooms to hang up towels, either hand or bath towels. No bath mats. No hair dryer. There was no welcome folder with all the instruction manuals and places to visit. The water tank was not constant hot water and had to wait for it to fill. The property gave the feeling that either just started renting out or about to stop rentals, as even the basics were minimal. I feel bad giving this review as Stephanie was very helpful, but as I have done many of these through different rental websites, I feel I have fair knowledge of what is expected. I would think twice about renting a cottage again throug HomeAway.

So based on this critisism ( which hurt given the 5/5 ***** Stars reviews to date) we took a long hard look at what may have got wrong - point by point. + The couch is a cosy couch. Most people like to face each other and the curve helps so no change here. + Extra utensils have been purchased - No casserole dish yet though :-) + All Mattresses have been changed for High quality memory foam/ pocket spring materesses. These are better than most 5 * hotels given our experience. We guarantee a great night sleep for our guests. + Extra radiator has been fitted and the system has had a complete overhaul. + Saftey Stair light sensor corrected - Its now on and off only when someone approaches the stairs. + Still no dressing gown hooks, but bathroom now has towel rack over radiator and bath mats are available. + No Hairdryer due to Covid Rules. + Welcome folder found and updated with Covid rules etc. We pride ourself on our cleanliness and attention to detail so we are very , very Sorry you had a disappointing stay, but as the other reviews show ... there's been is a lot of love and good from many people.

A wonderful holiday in a beautiful house with breaktaking views - thank you.

Well, what can I say. Cannot recommend this property highly enough. It's in the perfect location with gorgeous views all day long. Great to see the activity in the marina/harbour and it's literally a stone's throw from the pubs, shops and restaurants. We experienced the fireworks which started on the evening of the 26th July and run every Thursday - we simply watched them from our balcony with a glass of wine. The house has everything you need - handwash, dishwasher tablets, towels - you just need your toiletries, clothes of course and food! Beautiful outside area too. It can be a little noisy in the mornings due to the fishing activity and boats coming in but we're not the sort to sleep in anyway. Comfy beds and very clean throughout - thank you to Steph for letting us stay in your beautiful Poole home.

6/10 Okay

Good location and view but otherwise disappointing

The property is dressed to present a good first impression. The location is ideal for access to Poole town centre and the quay and offers great views across the harbour to Brownsea Island from the upstairs lounge and master bedroom. Views from the ground floor are to the small, enclosed courtyard garden, visible from the kitchen and the dining room that adjoins the downstairs double bedroom. Overall, we found the property impractical and uncomfortable and so cut our stay short. In several respects, it did not meet our expectations for a holiday property in this price range.

Wonderful house & location, with amazing sea views

Everything about the house was great, especially the upstairs with the beautiful views and balcony. The house was very clean and comfortable. Restaurants, pubs, and shops were only a short stroll away, and there was plenty to sightsee only a short drive away. Studland, Knoll beach was stunning. Wonderful trip all round, would book again / highly recommend to others. Thank you very much Stephanie - we all loved our stay at Sea Breeze.

The house is beautiful and really well stocked with everything you'll need. Location is superb with Poole a walk away and the amazing beaches on the doorstep. We travelled throughout the area and it was great to be able to come "home" each evening. There's a lovely outside area and balcony which is perfect for a sunny lunch. Can't recommend Sea Breeze enough, wonderful
