  • "We was very happy with everything at the property and would highly recommend it."

    Only a couple of things to mention,there was a loud clicking sound coming from the on suite bathroom which woke us up at night,not sure if it was coming from the above apartment! The drainage from the main bathroom shower isn’t great. Just a-bit disappointed with having to leave by 10 am,thought this was early compared to other places.

  • "The apartment is beautifully presented and very well equipped, making it the perfect venue for us for Christmas."

    The only reason I have not given it a 5 star review is for the fact that no mattress was provided for the cot (we did bring bedding as this was stated in confirmation email). There was a fold our base but it is no way comfortable enough for a child to sleep on. We tried to pad it out with towels etc but our 1 year old slept terribly and ended up in bed with us most nights. We even had to arrange for a family member to drop our travel cot mattress to us so that he could have a good nights sleep. Apart from this the apartment is perfect, so was a real shame!

    Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased that you found the property perfect for Christmas! Regarding the cot, due to manufacturer recommendations, we are unable to provide any additional mattress other the one that comes with the cot, as they advise this could be hazardous to the child using it. We hope you understand that legally we are unable to offer anything else. Thank you very much and we hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner

  • "The apartment is well maintained but a couple of things that might improve guests stay."

    Main double bed creaks so it was noisy if you had to use bathroom at night. Only 3 seats on balcony area, the apartment is for 4, so another chair needed. Main sofa incredibly uncomfortable if you are sitting on it for a longer period of time, such as watching a film. I also think it needs more ventilation, when we arrived the bed sheets felt almost wet and there were little black flies in the en-suite. Kept fan on in the en-suite but again smelled of dampness. St Ives is beautiful and the apartment was well situated. Had the weather been warmer we may not have noticed any dampness? We did try putting heating on for a couple of hours but then had to turn it off because it became too hot.

    Thank you very much for your feedback, we will pass your comments about the extra chair and the sofa being uncomfortable. We will also speak to the housekeeper about the bedsheets and the flies in the ensuite to make sure this is dealt with. We are glad you had a lovely holiday and look forward to welcoming you back to the area soon. Kind regards,The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner

    The property was extremely well equipped - they’d thought of everything we might want. Only slight criticism was the en suite door which made the toilet difficult to get to - perhaps a bifold door on that room would be better - but that is a minor thing that did not detract from a lovely stay.

  • "Recently stayed at Serendipity and could not be more impressed."

    We were quite surprised upon arrival when discovering that this property is even better than the photos and description. The location is perfect for enjoying everything St. Ives has to offer. Directions to the property were excellent and easy to find. The reserved parking space in front of the property was outstanding. The property itself was very clean and in excellent condition. The kitchen had everything possible needed to have meals at the apartment. They even supplied a Nespresso machine, and I was quite relieved as I did not have to go on the search for my morning espresso. Bedrooms were excellent with comfortable beds. The living room was also quite comfortable and the 50 inch television was perfect as it kept us entertained on one of the days in which we had torrential downpours. We found the location to be quiet, did not hear any street noise. Approximately a 5 minute walk to the sands on Porthminster Beach and 15 minutes to Porthmear Beach.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful, positive feedback as it is very important to us! We thrilled to hear that you had a memorable stay and have found everything you needed.

    However, there is no mention on your website how close this apartment is to a busy road.

    Great location. The barrier to enter the complex was temperamental and we had to wait 20 minutes to get it to work before we could get in which was very frustrating. The listing is a bit misleading - the terrace is much smaller than the photos make it appear and there is no mention of the road being right next to it which was quite noisy at times.

  • ""We had an excellent stay in Serendipity and would definitely come back again, it was fitted to a very high specification with all the necassary facilities that made it a home away from home."

    The outside area added an extra room - which is great for little ones to play in when the weather is nice, and for adults just to relax in the evening. As the weather was very good all week, we spent most of the week on the beach - as we have a three year old, and sandcastles are top of the list:) We did go out to Lappa Valley, which I would recommend as a good half days entertainment (in good weather though), for probably up to 5 year old's. The three train rides are the big selling point, although the boat ride was also reaaly good fun and easy going. An outside play area, miningolf and a nature walk are also there to fill out the day.
