The apartment was beautiful, spacious, and well appointed. We stayed for 2 nights with 1 child and 3 adults. There were biscuits, tea, coffee, sugar, and toiletries available. The kitchen was well appointed with a microwave, oven, hob, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washing machine as well as all the crockery and utensils needed. The rooms were generously sized, particularly the master bedroom, and nicely decorated. The beds were comfy with plenty of good pillows. Two bathrooms - bath & shower available. A nice selection of games (we enjoyed giant Uno!). The location was great - 5 min walk from Boscombe Pier and the beach, and 5 mins to the Bournemouth O2. About half an hour walk to Bournemouth pier along the seafront. Would highly recommend and will stay again if we return to Bournemouth.

Friendly staff, superb location on Swanage bay. Able to walk into the back of the hotel via a coded door from the coastal footpath. Restaurant and bar had amazing views as do the seaside facing rooms. Breakfast excellent. Dinner was very good.
