• "We had the most beautiful holiday and adored the balcony and bedroom view of Carbis Bay."

  We've fallen in love with this place and hope to come back again soon.

• "I just wanted to provide feedback on our recent stay Starting with the positives, the bed was extremely comfortable, we have stayed in many of the other apartments in this block and this was by far the comfiest The balcony furniture was also comfortable, this seems overlooked in many of the other apartments and if the weather is good then it’s somewhere we would spend a lot of time so a huge tick for us Unfortunately there are negatives and a common theme within these apartments is The cleanliness which was poor to say the least."

  There was an unpleasant smell in the kitchen which took a while to locate, but there are a few really heavy granite chopping boards and when we lifted them there was a puddle of stale cooking fat underneath, which smelt rancid In general the whole apartment felt like it needed a deep clean, we ended up buying cleaning products and doing it ourselves to bring it to an acceptable standard As a note for the apartment owner, whilst the kitchen was perfectly adequate, compared to a few of the others in a similar price bracket it is very dated and the appliances felt cheap. The light in the main oven is broken The duvet tog is also far too high for summer use The shower plug in the main bathroom is also broken The Bathrooms don’t have electric mirrors so you couldn’t see in them for all the steam and as there are no windows it takes an age for them to de mist The bedrooms had miniature mirrors and wall shelves which were too small to be able to use as a dressing table, to see in to get ready each day Whilst some of the above may seem picky, it’s what quite a few other apartments have got right and the reason I would choose them over Ivory in the future Cleanliness is the key issue and needs addressing

  We are delighted that you found the bed (new at the end of 2023) and the patio furniture comfortable. We do hope that our guests have comfort whilst enjoying the wonderful views. We are very concerned that the cleanliness was not up to standard for your week's stay and will indeed give the apartment a deep clean when we visit next week as well as discuss your comments with the housekeeper. There are two different tog quilts in the master bedroom. One is on the bed and the other is kept on the top shelf in the wardrobe as we appreciate everyone has different preferences. We will add this information to the welcome book in case anyone in the future doesn’t see it. We note your other comments which are most helpful. Thank you. Property Owner

• "Stunning views and great apartment, been looking forward to this for 9 months and worth the wait."

  Helped by the weather, we did a lot of bay watching. Enjoyed fish & chips @ Becks, and a great little walk to St Ives. Great Italian @ Peppers. Had a great time at Godrevy, saw some seals and went exploring.

• "Thank you for another amazing stay."

  We have been twice before, however over the last 2 years we did struggle to book and went to other beach apartments. These were nice but this is our favourite place and a very special place. Perfect in every way! To have a week has been a real treat, this apartment and the views are stunning. Amazing! We have enjoyed some relaxing time, listening to the sea at night and watching the swimmers, seals & dolphins. We have also enjoyed the local area, some short drives (Lands End , St Michael's Mount) and had some lovely evenings out and amazing food.

• "Fantastic apartment with incredible views and every possible amenity."

  We really appreciated the tree and Christmas decorations. Huge selection of crockery and pans made making Christmas dinner very easy. We did park in the wrong space by mistake as we arrived in the dark so maybe mention the parking spaces are non sequential. Would highly recommend and we would definitely stay there again.

• "Dear Carbis Bay Holidays and Owner of Ivory , We stay annually in your apartments and have before stayed in Halfway Tree apartment previously (which is now a bit sad, worn and dated)."

  This was our first year in Ivory and it far exceeded our expectations and was even better than the photos. We absolutely loved our stay in Ivory as the amenities were all of a great quality with everything we required and more to make our stay comfortable. The cleanliness and the freshness of the elegant decor was much to our liking and in keeping with the location by the sea. We could see that much thought and care had been put into the interior decor. The kitchen was very well equipped with quality glassware and crockery. We love our coffee and were pleased that a coffee machine was available- we brought with us from home several sleeves of Nespresso to find that it was a different machine - a Bosch that required completely different pods. Thank you for the Kenco pods to get us started and we left some for the next visitors but it might be an idea to let your future guests know which sort of machine it is on the amenities list on line. One other small thing was that we switched on the heated towel rails ( as per instructions) in the main bathroom first and then the ensuite at another time and on both occasions the mains power tripped. My husband reset on the board in the hall cupboard. Thought you'd like to know this. Other than that we loved every moment in Ivory. Warm Regards, Ruth and Gordon Phillips

  We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay in Ivory. Thank you for your kind words and your exceptionally glowing comments in our guest book. We are grateful for bringing the heated towel rail issue to our attention and the element has now been replaced and the towel rails in both bathrooms are now fully working. Property Owner

• "We absolutely loved the apartment ."

  First class fixtures and fittings throughout and even a small motion sensor nightlight in the hallway. Fabulous location with views over Carbis Bay and with a small private path heading down towards the beach. Train station 2 minute walk behind the complex with frequent £2 return trains to St Ives, great for heading in for a meal or shopping. Lovely clean beach with a hotel/spa complex at one end plus surfboard/wetsuit hire on the beach itself.

  Thank you for your fantastic feedback. We are thrilled to hear that you loved the area, apartment and your stay! Thank you again and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Kinds Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner

• "We had a good stay."

  A number of parking places in the car park were not in use, including the one for Ivory, due to construction work. A person from Carbis Bay holidays was very helpful and said that we could use the parking place of another apartment which was not being used last week. It would have been nice to have had advance warning of this issue. No construction work was carried out in the car park during our stay.

  Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you had a good stay. Unfortunately, the management company of the development had not made us aware that any works were due to be going on at Carbis Beach Apartments. Had we known, you would have of course been notified, straight away. We hope to get the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner
