Bardzo mili właściciele. Serdecznie polecam
- woodward (7/5): - Nice view. Bed was ok and friendly owners The deluxe single room was a bit small the toilet and shower where in a separate room.
No breakfast or anywhere to eat
- Paul (9/5): Lovely stay, beautiful area. Hopefully return sometime - The location was perfect and we were able to park our motorbike right outside. The hosts were very friendly. The room was lovely and clean on arrival Personally for us the mattress was too soft and we were rolling into the middle all night. Unfortunately we couldn't regulate the room temp, which got cold later on in the evening
- michelle (10/5): - Excellent location, lovely welcoming owners. Very clean and the sea view was fab! 😊
- Andy (7/5): -
- Tabatha (10/5): We were only down overnight but had the very best time! Lovely location, clean and cosy room. Best host with the most wo - Lovely welcome from amazing host. Very clean and cosy. Nothing.
- Franziska (10/5): -
- Cara (10/5): - Super friendly staff, amazing views, lovely room and the bed was really comfortable.
- Mark (10/5): -
- Tom (9/5): Lovely nights stay, will be back - Lovely hotel, friendly owners and an extremely comfortable bed with a gorgeous view of the sea front. With TV and tea/coffee facilities
- Gemma (10/5): Lovely, welcoming and slept very well and comfortable - Very clean, pleasant, facilities were perfect and lovely staff and very friendly Mattress edge was metal framed and hard but it’s just personal preference
- Elaine (9/5): Comfy bed in a generous size room, friendly host. - Top floor so quite a climb (for fairly able 70+ and 80+ somethings) but worth it for the sea view.
Accommodation only but a short walk to the High Street for breakfast.
Really comfy super-king size bed. Very friendly hosts. Nothing really
- Andrews Ross (7/5): - It was clean and comfortable.
Everything you needed Could do with a lift ,
We were on the top floor, was told it was 52 steps to the top and carrying to bags up there was a bit hard
- Lynda (10/5): -
- Samantha (10/5): -
- Jozef (7/5): Well i would stay there again -
- Robert (9/5): - Quiet and comfortable
- Sarah (7/5): -
- Chad (10/5): -
- Sian (10/5): A relaxing and comfortable weekend break. - The view was amazing, the room was very comfortable and had lots of amenities. The bed was very comfortable and the room was nice and clean. It was ideally located to get to the beach, shops snd train station. Handy parking in front so I could leave my car nearby. Nothing!
- Emma (10/5): -
- ALAN (9/5): - Location, welcome, views, No hot water
- Jacky (10/5): Lovely accommodation, we will return! - Cleanliness, furnishings, style, location, host Nothing, everything was excellent.
- Lisa (7/5): -
- Andrew (7/5): -
- Alan (8/5): -
- Anne (8/5): Petite chambre mignonne - Accueil soigné chez eux, chambre confortable avec belle vue.
- Brendan (9/5): Warm Welcoming and Ideal location - The room had a great view of the seafront and a nice comfy chair by the window. The owners gave me a warm welcome when I arrived, and they were very helpful for any questions I had amd generally fun to talk to. The room had plenty of space for belongings, and the bed was comfortable. I stayed for 4 nights, and I didn't hear a thing. I didn't hear any quests in other rooms, and I wasn't woken up by traffic outside, which is something I usually have to deal with elsewhere. Overall I wasn't very happy with the stay, and would stay here again when I visit Barmouth again. The bed mattress was slanted to one side, so it felt like I was about to roll off the bed. However, I turned the mattress around, which fixed the problem, and I slept comfortably after that. Whilst generally not a problem, the hot water took a while to warm up. The shower head is mainly a mist type, so not a lot of water comes out, even on max. A normal shower head would probably be much better. It was only a small problem, though, and it did the job.
- John (8/5): Certainly go back but on ground floor - Friendly clean quiet 100 feet from beach great location The amount of stairs to get to our room definitely for younger people
- Lawrence (10/5): - Great location. Lovely hosts. Comfortable, clean and well equip room. Great for short or long stay.
- Sam (9/5): Lovely seaside hotel - Lovely owners in a great location, nice comfy bed and clean room. The mini fridge was useful and nice to have the kettle with coffee and tea. The view was great of the beach. All was well, there is no door on the shower room so maybe suited towards couples, but not a major issue.
- Kylan (4/5): 2 star pretending to be 4 star. - Location - great. Does not reflect the “4* boutique” description broadcast online. It starts at negotiating the irritatingly low picket front gate, tacky adornments outside, an impassable front door (which you will be warned about in the welcome drivel but told “just try to push through”), nauseatingly overpowering shake ‘n vac odour in common areas, outdated rooms furnished from the recycling centre, draping grandma pelmets, dysfunctional lighting switch arrangements, grubby chairs, hideous and dirty “big foot” shaped floor decor, chipped paint, 70s brown wallpaper, dead insects in light fitting, offensively occupying vanity unit in the shower room, impoverished water pressure, cracked window out onto fire escape..to start to list a few snagging points. I don’t despise 2* accommodation but draw the line with false advertising and gaslighting that this is 4*. The photographer has done a stunning job with the photos used online but buyer beware !!
- Chris (10/5): - Location. Great View of the Beach and Estuary.
Spotlessly Clean. Comfy Bed.
Mini Fridge was a nice touch. Nothing.

- Beverley (5/5): - Room nice, comfortable and great view, fab location just outside main street. Owners welcoming and friendly Problem with toilet, took ages to fill up and wouldn't flush even small amount off toilet roll, so had to use the bin, which wasn't hygenic. This should have been spotted by the cleaner.

The host was incredibly friendly, and the room was spotless and comfortable, featuring a lovely mountain view. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the town and beach. We enjoyed our time on the beachfront and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Barmouth. We can’t wait to return! N/A

- Samuel (10/5): A Perfect Coastal Escape at Wavecrest - Our stay at Wavecrest Guest House in Barmouth was nothing short of delightful. Perched right on the seafront, the guest house offers breathtaking views of the sea and mountains, especially from the large bay windows. The room was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring the coast.
The host was warm, friendly, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. We loved being just a short walk from the beach, local shops, and some great cafés.
If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway with stunning views and genuine hospitality, Wavecrest is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!
- jayne (7/5): Very nice weekend break to relax and recharge. - The 2nd floor room was spacious and clean. Very comfortable bed and pillows.Amazing views, lovely and quiet . No breakfast, but knew this when we booked.
- Artem (10/5): -
- Christopher (9/5): A Lovely Place to Stay in Barmouth - Great seafront location. Beautifully furnished, decorated and looked after by lovely owners (especially the excellent Dave), who were helpful and informative. Availability of free on-street parking is a bit of a lottery - there is reasonably priced parking nearby if you can't find a spot, though.
- Smith (10/5): Great stay - Was greeted by a lovely host, was given the opportunity to upgrade to a larger room. The single I had booked was great for one night, so I stayed with that. Fantastic sea view and the room was spotless. Will definitely be staying again.
- Selina (10/5): Can highly recommend. I will definitely be returning and will only stay at Wave crest - Breakfast not provided. But new this before I booked. Room on top floor perfect for me. I loved having the seaview. The room was perfect for what I needed very quiet, and over looked the beach and the sea. I was able to sit by the window with my kindle, read my book and watch the world go by. So relaxing. I also went to complete the parkrun to give me the Welsh flag and the Y on my parkrun app. The owner of the hotel was totally brilliant. Very welcoming. Felt like a home from home. Which is nice when your traveling alone. I got to meet his dog Dave who was so cute and loved being stroked. It was really nice to see the owner and Dave the dog out supporting the parkrun on sat morning even waved and said hello to me . Nice to have the support when travelling on my own to a new location. I will definitely be returning to Barmouth and will stay at Wave crest. Fingers crossed 🤞 I get room 10 . Really enjoyed my stay. Everything was just perfect
