- Torsten (10/5): Eine absolute Empfehlung! - Eigentlich ist in den vorigen Bewertungen ja schon alles geschrieben worden. Wir können also nur wiederholen, tun dies aber sehr gerne und mit voller Überzeugung: unser Aufenthalt in der Villa Marina verdient eine 12 von 10, so wohl haben wir uns gefühlt!
Der hoteleigene Parkplatz; der super-freundliche Empfang; die tollen Empfehlungen von Vince zu Aktivitäten und Restaurants; die bis ins Detail nette und liebevolle Einrichtung der Zimmer; das klasse, frisch zubereitete Frühstück von Erwan; die netten Gespräche mit den beiden beim Frühstück, ...
Also eine klare Empfehlung, wir kommen gerne wieder, vielen Dank nochmals Euch beiden!

The room was lovely and clean, the villa was quiet and relaxed. The bed and pillows were comfy. The breakfast was amazing, the chef attentive and thoughtful to individual need.
Overall, would definitely visit again. The hosts absolutely made our stay as lovely as it was. We felt welcome and part of the family!

- richard (10/5): 100% recommended - lovely hosts, great sleep, good breakfast. Everything you need and more - and dog friendly which is w - Everything - it’s first class Nothing to dislike at all
- Davide (9/5): Beautiful dog friendly B&B - Breakfast was very fresh and good! Room was comfortable with many amenities. Hosts are friendly and very welcoming towards us and our dogs!
- Sarah (10/5): - We’ve just returned from a fantastic seven-night stay at Villa Marina, and it truly exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were looked after so well—everything felt thoughtful and personal.
The cleanliness of the villa was impeccable, which was especially appreciated as I’m sensitive to animals and was initially concerned about their pet-friendly policy. Not once was I irritated—every space was spotless.
Breakfast deserves a special mention: the poached eggs were genuinely the best I’ve ever had, perfectly cooked every single morning.
A lovely surprise awaited us on my birthday too—a chilled bottle of fizz and a heartfelt card. That extra touch made it all the more memorable.
Villa Marina gave us the kind of stay that lingers fondly in your thoughts long after checkout. We’ll absolutely be back.
Thank you so much V & E
- Naomi (10/5): Highly recommend! Immaculate, comfortable room, amazing breakfast and fantastic hosts - Everything from the moment I arrived to the moment I left was absolutely perfect. Very welcoming and friendly hosts, lovely immaculate room with very thoughtful touches. Breakfast was exceptional There was nothing to dislike, everything was fantastic
- Samantha (9/5): Excellent stay- would 100% return - Excellent hosts and facilities
Great breakfast
- Sarah (10/5): Exceptional highly recommended - Everything was fantastic
Attention to detail was amazing
Hosts are lovely, happy, welcoming and attentive 💚
- Lynne (10/5): - Wonderful place great people
- Darren (10/5): perfect in every way - we couldn't fault a single thing the owners where the two nicest guys you could ever meet and couldn't do enough for us the room was spotless and had all the facilities we needed the breakfast was to die for and the lovely touches like home made bread and marmalade made it all the more personal we had a perfect stay and will be staying there again for sure nothing to dislike
- Clare (10/5): Very impressed by the service and geniality of our hosts. - Variety and quality of breakfast was excellent. General decor was superb. Extremely helpful towards two ageing guests. Good to hear recommendations for the local attractions including Michelin Star restaurant. Initially thought VM was a little out of Torquay but this was compensated by the Torre station close by.
- Simon (10/5): Stylish and welcoming - Last minute overnight work stop, made to feel very welcome especially considering how unexpected I was. The place has been decorated to a very high standard and kept its character. Room was immaculate and comfortable. Breakfast was top notch. Highly recommended would definitely stay again.
- Susan (10/5): - We also stayed 12-15..we extended our stay.
Everything was lovely about this little Torquay b and b gem.
The hosts were very welcoming and friendly and from the minute we arrived to the moment we left, nothing was too much trouble.
This is a very dog friendly place. Barney had his own towel, dishes and treats. He loved the fuss.
The room was brilliant and just what we needed. There’s a mini fridge, with fresh milk, and chilled water, refilled when you ask. Choose Biscoff biscuits, nespresso coffee or instant, decaf too, (or tea and hot choc)
Dressing gowns in the wardrobe, iron if needed. There are USB connections and plug sockets, on both sides of the bed..and fast Wifi, a smart Alexa speaker, plus a TV if wanted.
A good shower, lovely shampoo, hand wash and shower gel in the bathroom (I’m going to buy some!) and super fluffy towels.
The king size bed was a little soft for us but that’s our choice. It was very comfortable and we slept well.
Breakfast choice and quality was excellent. You choose what you want the evening before and what time you would like to eat, between 8-9 am. With excellent fresh coffee, too.
You have the use of the pretty garden and furniture for sunbathing or reading, or picnicking.. and there is some off road parking for a few cars.
We normally like the anonymity of chain hotels but staying in this little oasis may just have changed our minds! We will return!
- Susan (10/5): - I reviewed our stay a part of the stay from 15-16 June because we extended this stay. Please read if you want more detail.
We loved staying here and will definitely return.
The hosts are excellent. The accommodation and breakfast are excellent. It is dog friendly, has off road parking. It is all excellent. It’s a 10 from us. Top marks.
- Rammus (9/5): Excellent to visit Torquai - Everything was excellent, slightly lower rating due to the very small size of the room, there was not much space to open the suitcases, also toilet and bathroom were quite small. Other than that everything was perfect, comfortable bed, very clean, and breakfast was tasty and with lots of different choices. Last but not least the owners were very kind and gave good tips on what to visit! We’ll be happy to viait again, next time we’ll just book a bigger room.
- Jürgen (10/5): - Liebevoll eingerichtetes und sauberes B&B.
Das Frühstück wird frisch zubereitet mit allem was das Herz begehrt.
Vince und Erwan liegt das Wohlergehen ihrer Gäste sehr am Herzen. Uns fällt nicht's ein.
- Michael (10/5): -
- Jonathan (10/5): -
- Hans-Gerhard (10/5): Fantastisches B&B, einfach perfekt - Herzliche und stets hilfsbereite Gastgeber, makellos sauberes und geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus, gepflegte Gartenanlage, kostenloser Parkplatz am Haus, fantastisches und stets frisch zubereitetes a la Carte-Frühstück ließ keine Wünsche offen, Strand und Stadtzentrum nach kurzem Spaziergang zu erreichen Hier gibt es nicht zu verbessern.
- Kathryn (10/5): Perfect place to relax in Torquay - Great to find such a fabulous B&B in my wonderful home town. Thanks guys for making our stay with you so lovely. Really attentive service, great attention to detail, relaxed, dog friendly, spotlessly clean and comfortable - great mattresses - and the breakfasts are fabulous.
Home from home but better. You made us feel welcome and pampered. We look forward to returning very soon. Nothing. Even the weather was brilliant 🤩
- Debbie (10/5): -
- Marion (9/5): Excellent hosts, could not have done more . Attention to detail. -
- Chris (10/5): Fantastic Stay - Vince and Erwan have created a stylish and relaxing place to stay, within easy reach of Torquay town centre.
The rooms were super clean, the beds were very comfortable, the parking easy and the breakfasts were awesome!
Their welcoming and helpful nature shines through and we are very much looking forward to returning.
Thanks Vince and Erwan for a fantastic stay!
- Lauren (10/5): Homely stay - Our hosts went out of their way to accommodate us, breakfast was absolutely wonderful and the atmosphere was lovely. Communication was brilliant, couldn't fault them. We will be visiting again for sure.
- Peter (10/5): Perfect - Excellent location, not far from the main town and promenade. Our hosts were excellent. They made us so welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. Attention to detail was excellent. Spotlessly clean. Beautifully decorated. Can't rate the accommodation and hosts highly enough. Would definately recommend and go back again. There wasn't anything we didn't like
- Elsie (10/5): Friendly and helpful - Vincent and Erwan were super friendly and helpful (we didn’t see Erwan much due to us choosing not to have breakfast) but every time we saw both, they were always pleased to see us and chat - extra bonus was Merlin (who doesn’t love doggo cuddles? 😍) we will definitely be returning next year
- Trevor (10/5): Relaxing and friendly atmosphere - Very relaxing and friendly atmosphere. The hosts were very helpful with local information such as where to eat and where to visit.
- Olexandra (10/5): Very kind hosts and cooks who have thought of every detail to - Excellent location in town just a short drive away from
the centre, harbour as well as train station. Ample room for parking and lovely surroundings. Room was immaculate and very tasteful with all the little things thought through which made our stay very enjoyable and relaxing. Nothing whatsoever
- Lisa (10/5): Just perfect! - I had a lovely night's stay. I arrived to a very warm welcome and some spot-on advice for what to do with my evening. I really enjoyed the suggestion and then returned to a warm, clean room with beautiful decor and extra little touches like a piece of tasty lemon cake and some sleep mist. I slept very well. The bed was comfortable, and the pillows were just right. In the morning, I enjoyed a delicious breakfast cooked exactly to my requirements, tailored to my allergies/intolerances and for the exact time I needed, which was quite early. Nothing was too much trouble! I would highly recommend it. A lovely property and even lovelier hosts.
- Philippe PASQUEREAU (10/5): Séjour magnifique à Villa Marina , ... The place to be in Torquay sans hésiter !! - Belle Villa sur les hauts de Torquay, avec une chambre magnifiquement décorée et dotée de tout le confort imaginable.
Petit déjeuner personnalisé, excellent et copieux.
Accueil chaleureux "franco-anglais".
Parking spacieux.
Nous reviendrons avec plaisir à cette superbe adresse. Un peu loin de l'esplanade(environ 15 minutes à pied ), surtout sous une pluie glaciale d'automne !
Mais sans objet aux beaux jours !!
- Deb (10/5): Perfect stay - The Villa Marina was exceptional the decor is amazing.
The owners Vince and Erwan were very welcoming, helpful and attentive and went out of their way to ensure everything was perfect for our stay.
The breakfasts are cooked to order and the choices are extensive. They will also try to fulfil any reasonable requests that are not listed on the menu.
The have a beautiful garden area if you just fancy some chill out time.
Our stay was perfect. There was nothing we didn't like.
- Eryn (10/5): - Vince and Erwan were the perfect hosts, extremely friendly and accommodating, and lovely to talk to.
The room was beautiful, lots of lovely little touches (freshly baked lemon cake, pillow mist, selection of drinks and snacks in the room that you could pay extra for), everything was spotlessly clean, and the room was well appointed. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful.
We booked our stay due to a funeral, however will definitely consider Villa Marina in future for a stay under better circumstances.
- Kathrin (10/5): Fantastisch Gastgeber und die Villa Marina ist ein Traum - Die beiden Eigentümer kümmern sich sehr aufmerksam um die Gäste. Sie sind sehr angenehm und immer freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück war ein Traum. Sehr zu empfehlen!
- Petra (9/5): B & B mit Herz <3 - Wir sind noch nie herzlicher Willkommen geheißen worden :-)
Tolles, frisch zubereitetes Frühstück.
Liebevoll eingerichtetes Zimmer mit selbstgemachten Kuchen zur Begrüßung.
Gratis Privat-Parkplatz.
Gute Tipps für Ausflüge oder Essen.
Ruhige aber trotzdem zentrale Lage.
- Charlotte (10/5): Charlee & Jamie - very impressed - Vince and Erwan were the nicest people and most accommodating hosts we've ever come across without being too much in your face! They go above and beyond just being hosts as it feels like you're staying at a friend's house. The rooms were immaculate with everything you need and more, including a mini fridge and basket of treats which were all very reasonably priced and if you needed anything extra they are more than willing to help if they can (including a small bit of dog shampoo as our dog rolled in the fishiest puddle he could find at Dartmouth harbour 🤢😂). They are very accommodating for dogs too! They had put 2 dog bowls, a towel, a blanket and some treats in the room for Milo! They have a gorgeous garden with seating available too so if the weather's nice you could sit and chill outside, I think the garden is enclosed as they have their own friendly dog called Merlin who Milo loved, but we kept Milo on his extendable lead mainly so if anyone came through the gate he wouldn't escape lol! There was also a muddy buddy dog paw washed by the door so if they have got dirty paws, there is a way of washing them off, there's also a boot cleaner too ☺️ We stayed in 2 different rooms as we originally booked 2 nights and then decided to stay another 3 nights, the first room was the cary room which felt very luxurious, it was very spacious and comfortable, loved the big bed and the way it was decorated too! We then stayed in the singer room downstairs for the remainder of our stay which again was lovely just a smaller version and on the ground floor! We had breakfast on the last day (mainly to make sure we were up in time for check out 😂) and it was delicious! I had scrambled eggs on toast which was probably the nicest scrambled egg I've had, perfectly seasoned, asked for ketchup just in case but there was certainly no need for it lol! Honestly there wasn't really anything we didn't like but the only tiny thing I would say is that we are 'bigger people' and the shower in the singer room is incredibly small, I could turn around in it but that was about it, same with my husband who's 6ft6 😂 but it still got the job done so as I say it's just something to be mindful of if you are on the bigger size, the shower in the carys room was huge! But we understand that the carys room is the most expensive and the singer is a reasonable price so bound to be smaller etc. Other than that, no negatives at all, we honestly really enjoyed it ☺️
- Marie (10/5): Torquay tour -
Vincent and Erwan are exceptional hosts—helpful, generous, and kind. They assisted us with our luggage and provided a detailed itinerary to ensure we experienced the best attractions in Torquay, Dartmouth, and the surrounding areas. The breakfast was delicious, with a choice of English and continental varities. Poached eggs were cooked to perfection. Our bedroom was spacious, beautifully decorated, and filled with lovely touches and fragrances. Coffee and tea were always available. The room also featured coffee pods and a coffee machine, adding a nice touch. The cosy garden, complete with seating, was perfect for reading a book, listening to music or having a drink. The location is conveniently close to the train and local attractions. We would love to come back!
- Greg (10/5): - Extremely friendly and welcoming. Clean well presented property with lovely surroundings. Breakfast was fantastic!
- Daryl (10/5): Beautiful relaxing friendly and peaceful stay - The property is decorated to a very high standard and is so clean bright and airy. The decor is amazing and really suits the style of the property. The outside space is beautiful and even has a plug socket outside so I was able to plug my laptop in and work outside which was fantastic. Garden is just as beautiful as the inside they have taken a great amount of care to make this place beautiful and have done it to a very high standard . Breakfast was amazing and we enjoyed every second of our stay all of the little personal touches were very much appreciated and I would love to come back for a holiday here it was perfect from start to finish. A big thank you from us for everything. And the sleep mist that was just the best I had a perfect sleep. You guys do an amazing job so thank you There is nothing to not like about this property. Everything is done to a very high standard with a lot of attention to detail
- Rosalie (10/5): Absolutely Perfect! - The Breakfast was absolutely amazing with so many choices! Rooms were impeccably clean, with lovely touches such as complimentary toiletries, and lemon drizzle cake on arrival! The hosts were so friendly and funny as well! Nothing we asked for was too much! Nothing! It was perfect!
- Kenny (10/5): Friendly welcoming clean comfortable luxurious and relaxing holiday - Ideal location walking distance to the seafront. Very friendly owners. Lovely private garden.

- Bradley (8/5): Excellent, will definitely return. - Brunel room was small and compact but everything that we were expecting and more. Hosts were cheerful and always happy to help. Breakfast was great. Room was a tad too compact.
- Magdalena (10/5): I cannot recommend this place enough. - The stay at Villa Marina exceeded our expectations! Both owners were unbelievably helpful and friendly. Our small dog was treated like princess :) And we had the best breakfasts ever! Nothing
- Catherine (10/5): Spotless spaces and thoughtful hosts - Erwin and Vince were very friendly and accommodating. They took care to ensure the rooms were spotless. Thoughtful gestures, like a home made sweet on arrival and fresh milk in the fridge made a difference. No 'one use' plastic! This takes thought and effort. Exceptional!!
- Mark (10/5): Great location - Great welcome from the hosts.
Super clean room 👌

- Melissa (10/5): A fleeting visit - Friendly hosts and very accommodating. They even had vitalite and oat milk for my dairy allergy which I didn't think to let them know about in advance. V knowledgeable about the local area. Nothing
- Hannah (10/5): Lovely hosts, very clean and just a great stay - Great hosts, very friendly and helpful.

Köszönjük a kedvességet és törődést!
- Loza (10/5): Fantastic had a great time. - The Villa Marina was in a very good location and nice walk into Torquay.

Loved the personalised touches in the rooms.
Breakfast was delicious.

Highly recommended and will be back.

- Susan (10/5): Way beyond our expectations. The best place we have ever stayed. - The hotel is a beautiful Victorian villa that Vince and Erwan have refurbished to an excellent standard. They gave us a warm welcome with yummy home made cake to have with our first cup tea. The house was tastefully decorated and furnished in a style that was up to date but in sync with the property. Everywhere was immaculately clean and filled with thoughtful touches, down to pillow spray! Lovely toiletries, comfy bed, fluffy towels and robes. Excellent breakfast. That we had to leave. There was nothing not to like!

- Nicholas (10/5): A Torquay gem - Vince and Irwin are incredibly friendly and helpful suggesting places, pubs, restaurants and attractions to visit that will make your stay that much better.

- BooWall (9/5): Fantastic stay. Exceeded my expectations - I stay away alone for work, and always larger hotels so booking a guest house was due to the closeness to where I needed to be the following morning. I can honestly say this is one of the best stays I've ever had. The room was spotless and attention to detail was fantastic.little extras in the room made the experience more memorable. Comfy, contemporary but luxurious. Even asking how you like your breakfast ie bacon crispy, any requests how you prefer parts of the breakfast really gave an extra attention to detail and customer service. Just being so accommodating without being in your face was so lovely. The hosts were friendly without being imposing and you felt they were engaging with you through genuine attentiveness, not just the expected lip service. Finally value for money was great. Little noisy but ear plugs provided ❤️
- Nahid (10/5): Villa Marina is situated in a good location and Vince and Erwan have made it a lovely place to stay. - We liked Vince’s and Erwan’s attitude, hospitality and feeling at home with them.
The clean and spotless environment
