  The location of this property was just right for us.

  Close enough to nice beaches, a nice local pub and a small supermarket. It is also quiet enough to relax in the evenings. The facilities provided were welcome and the home was clean and well-kept. The layout is also nice. Really light and airy. The garden is quite cute as well. I don't think the listing should describe the property as a detached bungalow - it is certainly not detached! This should be amended on the advert, as it is false. It didn't negatively impact our stay, but I do think the reference to a detached property makes it seem more luxurious than it is. I would say that it was overpriced for what you get. We paid just under £1,000 for 4 nights in the middle of July. We may have stayed again if the price was more realistic. We're going to Christchurch again at the end of August but we've chosen another property. Paradise Villa is advertised at a whopping £1,380 for 4 nights at the end of August. It is a lovely little bungalow but it is definitely not worth that amount. It's a good 45-minute walk to Avon Beach and 10-minute drive into Christchurch. Highcliffe beach is a 5-minute walk away but the best beach for utilities etc is Avon beach. So in summary, this holiday home is lovely - clean and a lovely layout - and the location is good. However, it's not detached and definitely not worth upwards of £900 for 4 nights. I would expect to pay that if it was closer to Mudeford and Christchurch centre.

  This property was absolutely amazing.

  Not only did it have surely one of the best views in the UK, but the apartment was a fantastic place to stay as well. The three bedrooms are all very generous sizes, two of which have stunning panoramic views over the bay, and one has an ensuite. This made for a very comfortable stay for my family. The main living area was very thoughtfully laid out and appointed, with ample kitchen appliances and utensils provided, plus a bonus coffee machine! This room really makes the most of the view and has a sky light to make the room extremely light and inviting The wrap-around balcony was also a great feature, especially as it connects externally around to the two beachside bedrooms. The property was clean throughout, and fresh bedding and towels were provided. Useful extras were available to make the stay easier, such as soaps, kitchen consumables, a hoover and a clothes dryer. The owner was also extremely helpful and responsive, giving clear instructions on how to enter the property and access the parking space, and also providing additional local area information on request. Overall I cannot fault this stay, and would very happily return to this property in the future! I would definitely recommend this apartment to others, and in fact, I already have. :)

  Absolutely brilliant accommodation. Felt very homely and all the furnishings and items in the house are top quality. Yes, there is a bit of a short hill to the house but well worth it for the views of the pier, sea and Old Harry Rocks from the front room and front bedroom. There’s a large hatch connecting the lounge to the kitchen so if you are in the kitchen you still feel part of the lounge. Beds were so comfy and the showers were great! Close to everything you need in the town but on a quiet road that’s very peaceful. It is on the first and second floor so if you’re taking a dog, you will need to go out with them as there’s no direct access to outside but across a quiet road you’ve got immediate access to The Downs which is a popular dog walking area. We did a lot of walking and the Coast Path is a 2 minute walk from the house. Swanage was a welcoming town with nice pubs, cafes and restaurants. Walking the coast path and ridges was stunning. Couldn’t find fault with the property and would gladly return!

  Our stay was generally pleasant, the property is bright, airy and had a nice layout.

  Check in was smooth and instructions were provided well in advance. The host is prompt with responses to queries. Things to note: the bed in the small room is very uncomfortable, the mattress needs replacing. There’s no microwave which may not be an issue for others but we needed to sterilise baby bottles so it was a bit of a nuisance using pots and pans. The kitchen is otherwise very well equipped. Although the listing states there’s heating, the controls have been removed so you can’t actually use it which feels a bit dishonest and the weather was quite cool and rainy whilst we were there and we couldn’t dry our clothes. At the time of booking the property was listed as detached, it’s semi detached but this was not an issue and didn’t affect our stay. There’s plenty of storage space for belongings. The garden is a nice place to sit and eat (grass needs cutting though). Overall we were happy with our stay but we would not return purely because the bed give me awful backache!

  Beautiful apartment right on the front so you feel you are almost on the beach.

  As it’s the quiet end of the town, you aren’t disturbed by too much noise. I’d seen on another description that you should be aware of the steep steps up to the door and of the stairs up to the apartment itself. Definitely bear that in mind if you have mobility issues, like me but I was determined to overcome them just for the location. Excellent communication with the owner , who was prompt in responding to a couple of questions. Apartment was super clean, really comfortable beds, would just say dining chairs need updating, sofa could perhaps have a deep clean. Also everyone in our party said the two single chairs weren’t comfortable. They could perhaps be put in the bedrooms and a couple of more comfy ones acquired. Other than that there was everything you could need, certainly more than enough crockery and glassware. The welcome pack was much appreciated as was the coffee machine. The parking spot was also very beneficial.
