We had been called earlier in the day with door code. Unfortunately the email stating the apartment number had corrupted, however we made a quick call to the host which was answered immediately. The apartment was clean and fresh, the kitchen spotless. The furniture adequate for our needs. The hot water took a few minutes to come through but there was plenty of it for a well needed hot shower.

If I had to say something it would be that the pub up the road had very loud live music, but this did stop before 11. This is not the fault of the apartment owner obviously and stopped early enough that we got a good sleep.

Swanage is a very sweet beach town on the English Channel. The Beachcomber is a quick walk to the beach and Carol is a great host, very informative and helpful. The apartment is super clean and comfortable.

For a weekend stay, you probably don't need much of a kitchen. If you want to stay longer, the kitchen could use more items for serving, like bigger bowls and platters. Also, a few basics would help, like salt (there was some)/pepper, some kind of cooking oil (vegetable or olive oil), and paper towels.

Just got back from an amazing week (the weather helped too). We love beachcomber apartments and have returned here a number of times with our young family. The location is perfect and the apartments are lovely. Clean and exactly as advertised with very attentive owners who will assist at any time if you need anything at all. Lots of room for all of our beach accessories too. What more can we say other then thank you and see you again soon !

The property was in such a great location for getting to the beach and wandering down into swanage. It was so clean and tidy, really impressed with the standard of cleanliness and ideal for our two night stay! Carol was really helpful and gave us some recommendations of places to go in the town which was really kind.

The only issues we found was that the listing states toiletries are provided however there was no hand soap or shower gel etc. Not too much of a problem but we did expect to have hand soap in the bathroom. As we stayed in the upstairs apartment, the ceilings are quite angled so if you’re tall it’s probably not the best one, but luckily we didn’t mind much at all!

Location was good and only ten/fifteen minutes walk from the town centre and only five minutes walk from the seafront. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. Communication was good with our host. We had a lovely stay and will be back.

Small thing -kettle needs descaling. To be fair, I was asked on our leaving if anything could be improved and I forgot to mention this. A minor detail.

The host took the trouble to ring us and advise that the rooms were available earlier than expected, if we wanted to arrive early. She also rang us during a cold spell to advise that the heating had been activated, and that we merely had to turn on our radiators if required.

It wasn't a problem but, ideally, hooks for guest hand towels near the kitchen and toilet washbasins would be useful.

Short walk to the seafront, 2 doors down from a lovely local pub which did good food. Bed was comfy and in a quiet location. Basic, but was good for us as we only used it to sleep!

Only 2 parking spaces outside so had to park in the car park which was £16 for the 2 nights so factor that in, plenty of spaces further down the road for free, which we realised after walking down to Swanage! Apart from that it was decent

close to the beach with paid parking near by. Bed and living room were comfortable.

Shower was small and cramped

Nice spacious apartment. flat 2 sitting room, kitchen with hob, fridge and microwave and sink. shower room with basin. separate toilet in hallway. two bedrooms- one twin and one double. perfect location at the quieter end of seafront. the bus to Studland/Poole/Sandbanks literally stops a few meters away and drops off opposite.

There is a drying rack but wetsuits need hanging in shower. only one tiny downside - the shower could be cleaner. Not the owners fault but other guests need parking lessons

Great location quiet but a short walk to the busy town. Host was very welcoming with excellent knowledge of the area, pubs and restaurants

Apartment is advertised as providing shower gel/shampoo; this was not enough for our stay. I would recommend one shower gel/shampoo per person per night.
