Folkestone harbour view
Everything was great, from the apartment which is exactly as it is depicted in the photos to the location and Daniel himself! He was very accommodating and helpful, including allowing us to extend our stay and sorting out a minor heating issue very promptly.

Beach front Garden Apartment in Broadstairs
Great location right on the beach with access directly from the shared garden (no view of the beach from the apartment). Lovely area with lots of pubs, bars and restaurants in easy walking distance and lots of choice of beaches to walk/run along. The property is only accessible on foot and with quite a lot of stairs but that was clear in the listing (but I would consider how much luggage you need!) and didn’t bother us. A lovely place to stay and I would recommend Broadstairs and the apartment.

Stunning 3 Bed Apartment with Panoramic Sea Views
Lisa's flat is beautiful, comfortable, well equipped and with amazing views of the sea. We couldn't believe our luck in finding it...

The Well Margate. A Sea View Wellness Residence
I had an absolutely perfect weekend away at the Well with my husband and our dog. Everything was just amazing: the view, the bed, the armchairs, the selection of teas, and the lovely local products in the bathroom. I especially loved that it was actually warm in the house (I find it’s rare thing in a UK home!). The location is great and very close to all the great cafes and shops (and of course the seafood stall on the beach). Hannah is very responsive and attentive. Would love to come again.

Sea-front boutique apartment Margate
Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place. Great location, warm and inviting flat which was perfect for our weekend away. They kindly left out the travel cot for us and the kids room was lovely

Contemporary Sea View Apartment. Balcony views
Wonderful Xmas getaway in a lovely clean apartment with an amazing large balcony to enjoy the stunning sea views. All the facilities you could require for a break are provided and even a proper hairdryer not a mini excuse of one! Easy access to a number of lovely walks to Broadstairs, Botany Bay and Margate made this a very memorable trip. Wendy is very attentive and recommended a great selection of local restaurants and cafes. Perfect location, property and host.

Stunning 1 Bedroom Flat, 3 mins walk from the Sea
What a gem! Beautiful ground floor flat within 5 minutes walk of the beach. Owners' attention to detail was faultless and decor was gorgeous. We had a very relaxing stay and the treats left for us were very much appreciated. Excellent communication with owners who were super friendly and helpful.

No.7 by the Sea - Margate
What a lovely Airbnb! It is spacious and very clean; even better than the photos. The bed is really comfortable snd there's a great view of the sea from the living room. Mark sent some useful local recommendations which is always helpful on Airbnb. My son and I stayed for two nights and during our whole day in Margate, we walked along the coast to Broadstairs, which we both enjoyed. Recommended!

Sea front architect designed house in Tankerton
We had an amazing time at Mark and Sonya's place! It's beautiful, well appointed, spacious and comfortable. Would definitely reccomend.

The Sea House, Beach Front, Camber.
We were looking for a special home to celebrate the festive period with friends and this house surpassed all our expectations. From the easy check in to the stunning views and the incredible interiors, everything has been considered for guest comfort and this is a truly luxurious experience. Spotlessly clean, high quality linens, extremely comfortable beds, we felt like we were in a 5 star hotel but with so much more privacy. We were also so impressed by all the useful kitchen utensils and furnishings. We didn’t need to bring anything ourselves other than food. The only small suggestion would be to add shampoo and shower gel. They have hand wash all supplied and lots of towels for beach and home. We loved it so much and created very special memories despite staying in the middle of a storm - the house was our haven of warmth, fun and laughter. We cannot recommend this home enough! Thank you Julie.

Lovely Beach House at Greatstone, Dungeness, Kent
we absolutely loved staying here, a beautiful house with an incredible beach side location. Strolling through the back garden and straight on to the sand dunes was a real treat. The interior of the house is incredible and hugely relaxing and it had everything you needed for a lovely stay. would love to come back one day again.

Victorian Splendour with Sea Views
We’ve had a wonderful weekend in this fabulous house. Perfectly positioned and a beautiful view out to sea. The house is comfortable, warm and really well furnished. Will definitely book again. Thank you Jacqui!

Beautiful beachside apartment
We had a lovely break and would certainly stay here again. The flat is great and the location perfect with the beach, bars and restaurants all very close. Susan and Jo were great hosts, providing us with all the information we needed and being really responsive. Would absolutely recommend.

Winterstoke View-Family&Dog Friendly Beach Retreat
Sheila’s house feels like a home the moment you step inside. It’s roomy and bright throughout. We all loved the place including the young grandchildren who spent ages in the garden amusing themselves. The kitchen is packed with masses of everything you could think of and as we cook this was brilliant. As all the adults have stressful busy lives this break was so relaxing, just what was needed. As a birder I highly recommend Pegwell reserve for a great walk and great birdwatching. Highly recommended.

Georgian seaside home a real gem!
We had a lovely time in Herne Bay. The house was gorgeous and in an amazing location. It was well equipped with everything you could need and was super clean. Any questions were answered quickly and they were super helpful. Would definitely recommend staying here if you’re coming to herne bay.

Bosun Cottage - boutique retreat on the beach
We're return visotors and Bosun Cottage is always a pleasure to stay at - even in February. Beautiful, homely cottage with lovely beach front walks and great pubs nearby. Highly recommended.

The Coastal Soul by the Sea
The Coastal Soal is nothing short of amazing, spacious modern apartment with all the amenities you need, impeccably clean and furnished with some amazing decor that adds to the peacefulness, calmness and tranquility. Comes with an unbelievably comfortable bed and very well sized bathroom. Very detailed house booklet to assist in helping you find your way around the apartment and its amenities. The pictures really do not do it justice and it has to be seen to be really appreciated. Mins from some of the local coastlines most stunning walks, and plenty of high standard restaurants and bars nearby. Cannot rate this apartment high enough, simply stunning 🥇

Quarterdeck Apartment. Beach Street by Deal Pier
Sue was amazing… very easy to communicate with and very friendly. The apartment was amazing and the little extra touches were fantastic.. books and duplo for my child and breakfast and milk in the fridge. Amazing location and nice and warm and cosy. We loved our stay in Deal

Spacious and cozy two bedroom flat
We had such a fantastic stay at Melody’s lovely apartment. Perfect location right by the beach and to town, easy parking, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Melody was so helpful in messages beforehand, really appreciated it. Thanks for a great stay, we would definitely recommend and stay there again.

Westlife -Margate Beachside apartment
I had a very enjoyable stay at this apartment, which looks exactly like the pictures and is in a very central location. The hosts were very easy to communicate with and provided clear instructions for check-in. They also suggested many recommendations regarding local sights. The pop-out balcony is very cute!

SeaSeat, amazing sea view flat
Loved Sara’s place - great location and perfect for a weekend break!

Margate | Seaside Haven | Terraces | Sleeps 6
Really lovely clean space right on the water front. It could do with a bit of a refresh paint wise but it really didn't affect the overall great feel of the place. Accessing the building was extremely easy with the codes etc and we found everything we needed in the place, there is also a convenience shop right next door for all your basics like bread and milk etc. We stayed in Winter, I expect it would be even more amazing in the summer season. Would 100% stay again.

A seafront apartment in the heart of Margate
Stephanie's apartment is absolutely gorgeous. That sea view!!

Writers retreat Margate Lido overlooking sea
Beautiful flat with amazing views. Phoebe was very responsive and kind host
