Guests say
Chalet 56 in Deal is a cosy and well-appreciated holiday rental with a welcoming host, Jon. Guests have enjoyed its proximity to the beach and local attractions, as well as the on-site pool. The chalet is equipped with amenities and thoughtful touches, including a welcome package, though some guests suggest a refresh in certain areas.
Most guests found the chalet clean and cosy, but a few noted the bathroom could benefit from a deeper clean and refresh. The presence of a welcome package suggests a good level of care, but consistent feedback on the bathroom impacts the score.
The chalet's location is highly praised for its peacefulness, proximity to the beach, and local amenities. It serves as a great base for exploring the surrounding areas of Deal.
Guests describe the chalet as warm, cosy, and well-equipped, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, some guests felt the space was cramped, especially when fully occupied, which slightly lowers the score.
The on-site pool and children's play areas are highlights, but some guests experienced maintenance issues with the pool and mentioned the chalet being cluttered with excess items. The need for more storage and updates in the chalet suggests room for improvement.
Guests frequently mention the thoughtfulness of the host, including welcome treats and helpful communication. While these gestures are warmly received, it's important to note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.

A day trip to Canterbury is a must with its dominant cathedral and city walls, boutique shops for a spot of retail therapy or try sampling the local ales in one of the many bars. A day trip to France is popular with ferries from Dover, or a train from Ashford. Beach 250 yards.

We had a lovely stay at chalet 56. Jon the landlord communicated everything we needed to know and also left us a lovely treat when we entered. The chalet is cosy and clean and the surroundings are beautiful. There was everything you needed there and we were so close to the beach and deal. We had a brilliant stay and would definitely come back.
