Detached 3 En-Suites, Parking & Annex
Matt was a great host and very responsive. The house was a great location, close to Colchester and our wedding venue in Feering. Rooms were spacious, great communal area, kitchen and living room. All utensils provided. Would highly recommend

3bed town house- Superking Beds-fast WI-FI-Parking
Great accommodation for 3 of my colleagues to stay in for the week whilst working close by. Andy was a great host and fast at communicating if we had any questions. We booked for a second week straight after as we could guarantee a great stay. Thank you :)

Robin’s Nest - 4-bed home close to beach
This was my first booking with Airbnb so I didnt really know what to expect but Mel has certainly set the standard. She is a friendly, helpful, honest, and incredibly responsive host. The house was exactly as described and the quiet location was perfect for us. We'll definitely stay again when we return to Mersea Island, which was beautiful too!

2 bed family home, 5 min drive from the beach
Lovely house with a great space in the kitchen. The games table was a massive hit with the family. Now have to buy one for the kids 😂. Thank you.

4 bedroom house in Rainham
Second time here, nice peaceful and quiet area no to busy for location.

Three Bedroom House on an English Country Estate
Absolutely perfect stay in a beautiful area. The house was spotless and even bigger than the photos show! It was perfect for 4 adults and my 16 month old daughter. Stuart sent great instructions through and loads of information about the local area, although we actually loved the house and grounds so much that we didn’t venture any further - we had a lovely few relaxing days in the house and walks around the woodland. My daughter even got to feed the goats. Will definitely come back, and will do a summer visit too as the pool looked beautiful.

Freshly decorated 2025 Thorpe bay beach apartment
Wow! it's the easiest way to describe our whole stay. The apartment was fantastic, from the moment you stepped in, it felt like home. A place to unwind and relax. Everything is placed in such a lovely way that it feels like you put it there yourself it genuinely felt like our own home. The view from the balcony was incredible. Being able to sit there and drink a coffee looking out over the ocean was amazing. We really enjoyed our stay here and would love to come back again for another get away!! Thank you to Mark and Maxine for hosting such a fabulous apartment!

Had a great stay at Katy’s space. Everything was clean, comfortable and matched the description and we enjoyed the goodies Katy stocked the kitchen with to get us going! Great location - very close to everything we needed. If I was ever in Walton or Essex again would be happy to stay again. Communicating with Katy was very easy and she was happy to help with any questions!

Lovely spacious 1 bed apartment by the beach.
I am a heavy travellers . I stayed so many places before. Hotels or flats. Aniesha’s flat is like a five star hotel suite! Very modern and stylish. The building is only 1.5years old. Very clean and the location is very convenient just in front of railway station and near supermarket and shopping center. Lots of restaurants nearby. It makes me feel like home. Thank you Aniesha! Aniesha is a very nice host. I already look forward to coming back again! Wish a merry Christmas and Happy new year.

Fantastic flat, bigger than the photos indicate and a wonderful host. I will certainly remember this in mind for the future!

O2 and Excel | Spacious 1 bed flat with sofa bed
I had a fantastic stay at Andrea's place! I needed to stay in London for a month long work trip. After a couple bad experiences trying to book a longer stay on Airbnb I luckily found Andrea's place. Andrea was a fantastic host, very communicative and helpful. She checked in on me and organised cleanings around my schedule. The flat is as lovely as the pictures. Clean and tidy, perfect for a quiet stay. I was very comfortable and enjoyed my stay. There are plenty of international supermarkets nearby and bus stops that can take you to Stratford or the nearby tube stations. Overall this was one of my best experiences at an Airbnb and I wouldn't hesitate to book again! Thank you Andrea :)

Estuary Views Penthouse with Parking
I want to thank Samantha, she was very attentive throughout and also recommended wonderful places in the area. It's a beautiful and warm apartment, you feel right at home, it has a gorgeous view of the beach where you can enjoy fantastic sunsets, the place has everything you need to make your stay magical and unforgettable, very clean and comfortable place. I recommend it 100%... Without a doubt, I would return to this place. It was an incredible experience. Thank you so much, Samantha.

Luxury London flat with amazing view of London
This apartment is spacious, clean and clutter free. The views across London are superb and the host friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the weekend we stayed saw the part closure of the DLR which was a shame as the station is moments from the property. However we walked into Canary Wharf in twenty minutes and from there the Jubilee line is convenient. Poplar is an interesting area to explore with a fascinating history. I am very happy to recommend this apartment and am planning to return.
