Folkestone harbour view
Great place, brilliant location. We had everything we needed. Host had milk and butter in the fridge for tea, coffee and crumpets. Would definitely stay again. 5⭐

Beach front Garden Apartment in Broadstairs
Fantastic visit! Great apartment! Brilliant Host! Everything was as described and my family and I had a fantastic weekend. The beach was right on our doorstep and we could not have asked for more. We will be back!

Stunning 3 Bed Apartment with Panoramic Sea Views
We had a fantastic stay at this apartment. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to the pier and town centre, with plenty of shops, cafes, and restaurants nearby. The apartment was spotlessly clean, very spacious, and beautifully decorated throughout, creating a warm and relaxing atmosphere. It was also very family-friendly, with a great kids’ bedroom that our young children loved, and the host kindly provided a cot, which was a big help. Check-in was super easy, and communication from the host was clear and helpful throughout our stay. The apartment had everything we needed—from a well-equipped kitchen to comfortable beds and a lovely living area to unwind in after a day out. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area, and we’d happily stay again!

Contemporary Sea View Apartment. Balcony views
Second stay at Wendy’s lovely apartment. The view from balcony,lounge & the bed is stunning. Will miss reading in bed & looking out to sea. There was work going on in the block & Wendy kept us informed and gave us the option to cancel after the usual time if we decided that the work would ruin our stay - it didn’t.. apartment super clean & comfortable. Coffee shop - Coast at the Granville theatre on the green opposite flat is great venue for coffee with a view. Lovely area, easy to get around walked most of the time but did get the Loop bus to Margate. If we come back to Ramsgate next year will definitely stay here again. Thank you Wendy.

The View Sandgate Beach
We had a great stay at Vanessa’s place whilst visiting friends in the area. The location is excellent with spectacular views of the sea, and close to the great facilities of Sandgate. The flat was exactly as described and more spacious that the photos suggest. There was lots of nice touches that made the stay more comfortable. I would have no hesitation staying at Vanessa’s place again when visiting the area.

The Clay House Seafront Apartment - 3 Bedrooms
I wouldn’t want to spoil the wow factor for anyone else so il do my best not to ramble on….. I personally love the East Kent Coastline and there’s so much to do and see in this particular area, as you are spoilt for choice with restaurants and plenty of activities. This Airbnb is conveniently placed right opposite Margate main sands beach, and right behind it you have Dreamland. The property is also not far from Margate old town where there are plenty more shops, galleries, cafes, restaurants, and pubs to choose from. We had a wonderful stay. The apartment was found clean, and Amy was a pleasant host from start to finish with excellent communication. Every detail about this property has been carefully thought out and you can see and feel that the minute you enter.

No.7 by the Sea - Margate
Another great stay at Mark’s place! I’ll never get tired of the view, and there are some lovely cafes in Cliftonville. The apartment was super clean and cosy, and so close to the beach!

Sunny sea view top floor flat
We stayed at Eleanor's flat for a weekend getaway in Margate and loved it. Beautiful views and so close to the Old Town and all of its restaurants and shops. The flat was well equipped with everything you might need for a stay away from home and was very clean and comfortable!

Luxurious coastal retreat - Downs Cottage
What an amazing stay! You will be blown away by the amount of art and things to look at in this home. I came here with 9 friends (10 of us total) and the cottage was exactly what we needed. Was very tidy, homely, relaxing and we were even allowed to bring our dog. The host was also very responsive and helpful when we had questions about the homes built in music system. 10/10 stay would definitely come back!

The Beach House - stunning sea views!
Our family stayed here for our sons wedding in Kent, and we couldn’t have found a better place. The weather was perfect so we enjoyed a swim in the sea and sitting outside as well as the beautiful house itself. All the rooms are lovely so no arguments … and the spacious kitchen diner/lounge worked really well for us.

Pebble Shore
We had a wonderful relaxing stay. A beautiful cottage, and extremely spacious. The sea view is stunning. We spent a lot of time enjoying the view. The decor is of very high quality with lots of personal touches. The kitchen has everything you need. Communication was excellent, lots of recommendations and helpful information. We would stay again and highly recommend Foreland cottage.

Pet-Friendly & Accessible, SeaViews
Becky's bungalow is beautifully decorated, alot of time and love has been put into making it a lovely space. Becky was responsive and friendly.

Victorian Splendour with Sea Views
Loved the house and location -very well equipped and very comfortable & spacious . Especially loved the balcony overlooking the sea-great for the sunset. Instructions for the oven & hob would have been helpful ! We had a lovely weekend, felt very at home .

Beautiful beachside apartment
Our second stay here,just as nice as previously. The flat is always spotless with great facilities and a central location. Sue is a great host who provides you with all the information you need regarding the flat and the area itself.

Winterstoke View-Family&Dog Friendly Beach Retreat
Sheila’s house feels like a home the moment you step inside. It’s roomy and bright throughout. We all loved the place including the young grandchildren who spent ages in the garden amusing themselves. The kitchen is packed with masses of everything you could think of and as we cook this was brilliant. As all the adults have stressful busy lives this break was so relaxing, just what was needed. As a birder I highly recommend Pegwell reserve for a great walk and great birdwatching. Highly recommended.

Bosun Cottage - boutique retreat on the beach
Very last minute stay. Ally was great, communicative and friendly. House was ready for our arrival, all goodness and fuss free. Just what we needed to clear our heads from the city. Beach, sea and coastal path outside the door, along with the Zetland Arms (good pub grub !). Everything we needed. Recommended !

The Coastal Soul by the Sea
Thanks Nic, we really enjoyed staying at your place ‘The Coastal Soul’, and loved being so close to the beach. It was just as you described it, very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The tips in your house guide were also very helpful, the location was perfect and we enjoyed the walk along the coast to Reculver fort. We would absolutely recommend it and will definitely be back. Thanks again David and Jane

Quarterdeck Apartment. Beach Street by Deal Pier
Such a great little find for us as we stay in Deal often. The apartment is bright airy and spotlessly clean. It is so spacious so more than enough room for everyone. Fantastic location right in the centre of Deal and on the seafront. Communication with Sue was great and check in was simple! Would definitely recommend and will definitely be staying again.

Spacious and cozy two bedroom flat
Lovley property, very warm, parking was an issue on arrival but soon sorted. Area is a bit rundown but location to the oldtown with plenty of nice pubs & restaurants is a short 5-minute stroll away. Perfect if you have a dog as the local beach is a 2-minute walk. Supermarket (Aldi) is 2-minute walk as are a few local bars & coffee shops.

Westlife -Margate Beachside apartment
We had a lovely time staying here for a few days during the Easter holidays. Perfect place for a couple to stay and make the most of Margate whilst also being slightly out of the busy town centre.

Ocean Lookout- 3 Bed Sea View Apt Parking no fees
We had a great time, very accommodating host. The apartment is right on the beach with stunning views and lots of good restaurants within walking distance.

SeaSeat, amazing sea view flat
Had a wonderful stay. The place was beautiful and the bay window looking to the sea and sunset was perfect. Took so many sunset photos from the window! Everything felt fresh and clean. Comfy bed - slept really well. Great amenities- loved the coffee machine. Kitchen very well catered for - all utensils that you’d need. Great shower. Host very responsive Loved Margate old town. Walked from Broadstairs back to Margate - great walk with beautiful beaches. A wonderful few days. Thank you.

Margate | Seaside Haven | Terraces | Sleeps 6
The place is as great as it is described, the guide provided is really helpful and the hosts were always responsive 🙂

Stunning beach front 1bed apartment with sea views
Kirsty place was out of this world. We booked one night last minute with my mother 6yr old daughter and my 5 week newborn. To say the night/early morning feeds were made so much better looking out onto the sunrise across the sea and breakfast on the balcony in the mornings. We spent the day on the beach and then got a takeaway fish and chips. Apartment was spotless, bed was so comfy and linen fresh and so Inviting. We will be back this time with my husband as he was sincerely jealous of our morning view as he was at work! Thank you x
