Guest Reviews
- Iain Martin (8/5): Good location in centre of St ives - Great location. Excellent view. Dropping off slightly difficult. I suggest you park near the station and walk bags up from there, rather than stopping outside.
- Volodymyr (10/5): -
- Emily (9/5): Fabulous view and a great location - Great location close to the centre of St Ives and not too far from the nearest car park or train station. Large rooms with big windows and a fabulous view from the living room. Could do with a bit less ‘stuff’ it’s personal taste but we prefer a calm and minimal interior and definitely don’t want to see any clocks when we’re on holiday!
- Fiona (7/5): Enjoyable stay. - Location There was dog hair on the mat in the bedroom with the bunk bed and some pots and plates weren’t clean.
- Matthew (10/5): -

- Matt (10/5): Excellent location, fantastic property and brilliant host - Fantastic property with plenty of space in a great location just a short walk from the harbour. A lot of effort has been put into making the property a comfortable and relaxing place to stay. Also Jill is a fantastic host who made our stay really easy. I would thoroughly recommend the property!
- BERNADETTE (9/5): -
- una (10/5): Exceeded expectations! - We travelled with another two people. We stayed at Harbour, other two in another property. The place is so much bigger than advertised, we would have happily stayed together and paid more if we had known. Its amazing property, indeed! Nothing really to say here. Exceeded expectations! Nice, warm, cosy and very clean property, highly recommend to everyone. Close to beach as well.
- Richard (9/5): -
- sjx19871109 (9/5): - Nice apartment, good place and nice view. The facilities are complete and ann in good condition
- Charis (8/5): Lovely time in harbour view. - Location and character. Would have been useful to know where to take our rubbish.
- Joanne (10/5): Apartment with stunning views - Amazing property.
The views are stunning.
The property makes you feel like you’re living in lovely St Ives. Spacious and well located. Would highly recommend. Parking is difficult to find in St Ives. No parking available for this apartment is the only drawback.
- Mikhail (10/5): - We had an amazing time here! The host was very welcoming and kind. The apartment is beautifully designed, with love and a great layout—everything was functional and comfortable. The location is fantastic, close to everything we needed. Highly recommend this place!
- Max (7/5): -
- Marilynn (8/5): Property was well kept & in a perfect central location. - The location was great! The bunk beds were very squeaky which didn’t lend for a good nights sleep.
- Roxanne (9/5): Superb -
- Tim (9/5): Superb -
- Darren (10/5): Exceptional -
- Claudia (4/5): Never again - Location was great, and the views were stunning Filthy! Dust and crumbs everywhere. White pillow case had so many different types of hairs on in the main bed I ended up sleeping on my t-shirt hoping for the best.
Was very disappointed to find out the property manager had left us to make the sofa bed, but she’d told us where to find everything and as it was a special birthday of mine, I didn’t want to make a fuss. We came in late after being in town. Was desperate to get the kids to bed quick. To realise the fitted sheet we’d been left with was far too small and no matter how I tried would not fit, I couldn’t see any other bedding available and as we’d been left with no info I decided to cut the offending lady in one corner as to get some coverage on the sofa bed, for hygiene purposes for both parties.
As I’ve done Airbnb myself, I was sure the property manager when I told her in the morning would of felt very embarrassed about the situation, as they had not provided the right bedding and would be pleased that I’d come up with a solution.
But even though I told her clearly what happened no apology was made and she would like me to replace the fitted sheet even though she has sheets that fit the sofa bed? I understand it wasn’t any easy decision to make, but the sheet was of the £5 value ones. And I would rather pay for a new one than expect my kids to sleep on a half on, half off fitted sheet.
- Netanel (7/5): Great location very close to the harbor - We booked in the last moment and our host who was not at home made sure we could get in easily
- Robert (10/5): Excellent - Location was amazing looking out from the balcony over the harbour
- Robert (7/5): Great location - The location is excellent, and communication with the host was exceptional. We greatly appreciated the lovely view from the living room and the convenient proximity to the city center and the train station. However, the property did not meet the highest standards of cleanliness.
- Christopher (8/5): Very good -
- Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rei (10/5): Exceptional - The home was immaculate, prefect location. Nothing.
- Abi (8/5): Very good -
- Tracey (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment, loads of space and rooms gor teenagers to have their own space.
- Pegg (1/5): Bad - Wi fi connection. The views. Cleanliness. No coffee or tea. Dirty bathroom, bins full of rubbish, hairbrush found under bed. Window couldn't be opened in the bedroom with bunk beds.Front door couldn't be shut properly as damaged. Heating was either hotter than the sun or non-existent. Just rough around the edges, needs a deep clean.
- Ellen (7/5): Good - Location, size, space. Cleanliness
- Dominic (6/5): Good one night stop, great space, great location with plenty of parking nearby, easy access to the harbour and town! Onl - Good location, good space, dog friendly, comfy bed! Good communication with owner Is in need of a deep clean, a few areas missed by the cleaners, such as bins and stuff left under the bed from previous guests, dishwasher needs a good clean out!
- Celia (10/5): Comfy home away from home in the heart of St Ives - Beautifully decorated, really central but in a nice, quiet area. Jill is an attentive and flexible host who clearly loves the property. Kitchen excellent, bed comfy and twinkly lights in the living room/on the balcony really added to the vibe.
Would absolutely return! Haven’t been to St Ives in ages but quickly remembered how much I love it. Even better now that food options are elevated. Don’t miss Talay Thai and the Rum and Crab Shack! Nothing!
- Alexander (8/5): A fabulous place, with fabulous views, would stay again. - The decor and vibe. The views and the location. Dog friendly. No tea and coffee / essentials for a short stay. With this everything would have been excellent.
- Sara (9/5): Superb - Location was great. Very quirky & imaginatively furnished. Lovely view of the harbour from the living room window. The added surprise of a bonus relaxing living space in the attic. Initially it was difficult to find the property.
- Brown (8/5): A pleasant break in an interesting town - Wonderful location. Great view of harbour. Near station parking and town. Nothing
- Sai (10/5): Exceptional - It is a cozy home with everything you need.
The house is beautifully decorated and the host is sweet and helpful.
Very near to the beach.

- Raghav (10/5): Exceptional - We had an amazing 2-day stay at this hotel. Everything was perfect, from the service to the ambiance.

The over decoration and associated dust
- Mcquinn (10/5): Exceptional -

- Flynn (2/5): Very Disappointed - Near to the train station !
Kitchen clean & tidy
Bathroom OK but poor lighting Reviews by host say fabulous
We certainly did not agree !
Very tired decor in most rooms. Too many ?/artificial silk flowers in all rooms.
No soap in bathroom..... dark in bathroom as only one light bulb working properly. No extractor fan.
Dusty under bunk beds receipt found from May !
Very tired looking front door to property ... needs a lick of paint.
Downstairs hallway had owners post and again shabby interior.My daughter from Australia took photos so are on her phone not mine.
I emailed host several times about our concerns and she said most emphatically that they couldn't possibly be true and has always had excellent reviews. Also asked if we were Chinese when told her there were filthy towels in the bathroom on our arrival !!!!!!! Admittedly there were 2 white towels ...there were were 4 of us. 2 adults and 2 children. We asked for more towels and owner said she would get someone to drop more off ... that didn't happen. My daughter had to purchase more towels for our stay.
- Daniele (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adam (10/5): Location was perfect, I love St Ives, Cornwall, good for the soul :) - Good location, bright and colourfully decorated, appealing layout nothing
- Kathryn (9/5): A place full of marvellous surprises! Superb. - An incredible location and great view. Lovely host who was easy to contact. Perhaps some laundry detergent, soap, shampoo and conditioner could have been a bonus. But otherwise, a wonderful place and would highly recommend!
- Romany (10/5): Amazing property! Will definitely be back -
- Chelsey (10/5): Fantastic!! - Such a lovely place to stay, the house was amazing and so homely! 10/10 would recommend to stay here. Location was great (in the middle of everything you want) and had everything you need there!
- Jonathan (9/5): Superb - Superb location, value and communication.
- Lucy (8/5): Very good - Lovely place, great views. Decorated beautifully.
- Sally (9/5): Superb - Perfect location - car park in railway station nearby. Ability to book for a 1 night stay. Possibly the sitting room sofa could have been a bit more comfortable but perfectly adequate.
- Anthony (10/5): Stunning views, lovely location and attentive host - Beautiful location and very pleased with propertyy and facilities. Parking an issue although it is St Ives and most property dont have parking attached. Breath taking view and host extremely accomodating, responding to questions quickly, Recommended Parking some distance away although able to drop bags at property first. Apart from that lovely central location and views to die for.
- Robert (10/5): Would and have reccomended to everybody I’ve seen since stayibg - Great location great property just want to be back there We couldn’t get normal tv? Might have been us being stupid.
- Nicolae (10/5): Exceptional - Really nice, cozy house, close to the beach. We really loved it. We had everything we need. We recommend for a nice weekend away. We love it !!
- Rowena (8/5): Very good - Great location; near the train station and Porthminster Beach. The property is very well-equipped and can sleep a whole family comfortably. Was a bit tricky to find the place. It has the same name as another nearby accommodation. Jill did send a photo a few hours before we arrived, but my mobile phone coverage was very bad throughout St Ives, and I wasn't able to see the photo until awhile later. It would've helped if the directions for finding the place had been sent earlier.
- Sarah (10/5): Quirky property in an ideal location for st Ives - Loved the decor of the property and the location was perfect. It didn’t have parking but was able to drop off the belongings and could either park in the leisure centre or car park (5 mins away). The apartment was at the top of the town of st Ives and was a very short walk for the harbour which then connects to the other beaches. Nothing it was quirky and perfect
- Suji (9/5): Overall, a very good and a relaxing stay at the property. - The property is centrally located with easy access to the public transport, beach, shops and restaurants nearby. Loved the comfort and the attic style of the apartment. It was a perfect apartment with the required amenities provided (though few of them were missing). Being a roadside apartment, disturbances from people and vehicles on road at night.
- Dmitri (10/5): Exceptional - The location was outstanding! The flat's layout was excellent, offering top-notch facilities for relaxation. We were treated to stunning views from various parts of the flat, and the overall vibe was incredibly cozy. It exceeded our expectations!
- Risa (10/5): Magical place that I will dream about returning back to! - Loved the property! Great location! They only issue we had was finding parking in St. Ives. But, Jill was fabulous, she helped us locate public parking!
- Noel (8/5): Very good -
- Charles (1/5): we left the apartment and did not stay. we received very poor service from property owner and booking.com - Place was disgusting and property owner extremely rude. The property door was nearly broken and the property had evidently not been cleaned before our arrival. There was hair all over the floor in all rooms, there were crumbs on the table and kitchen counter, there were stains on all the kitchen doors and handles, there were cobwebs and dust all over the home apartment, the sofa looked like someone had just stood up with the covers dirty and messed up.
- Tom (10/5): Excellent property and host - Genuinely blown away with how lovely this place is.
Facilities to a very high standard and location excellent
Great value for money and we all really enjoyed our stay
- Robert (1/5): Bad - The fact we couldn’t get in because keybox was faulty. Had no email from owner. When tried to call I I receive was a message saying they would get back in touch but never dad. Ending up sleeping in the back of my car . How about a full refund
- Yulin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deborah (8/5): Very good - Lovely host very helpful and great location!
- Joanne (8/5): Very good - The apartment has a stunning view of the bay. All shops were in walking distance In peak season of you arrive late as check in is only 3pm we could not find a parking and had to park about 1 km from the property which was a hassle to carry luggage
- Samantha (10/5): Exceptional -
