Waterfront holiday rentals in Southend-on-Sea

Stella has a fantastic two bed apartment here with wonderful views out to the water. Everything is within walking distance whether that be shops, pubs or just a nice stroll along the coastline! I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking to stay in Kent and get the best of both worlds being so close to the station and city but also being on the doorstep of so much greenery and countryside. Stella was fantastic as was her assistant Natasha.

We had a lovely weekend stay, great location and a comfortable flat. Although we didn’t use the kitchen at all (so many lovely local restaurants to eat at; highly recommend A La Turka which is only a couple minutes walk) it looked well equipped. Bathroom supplies were great. The sea view is why we booked and we were not disappointed!

A beautiful apartment. Clean and tidy with everything you need for a short break. Plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. Would definitely recommend.

This was such a lovely little gem to find. It was perfect for what we wanted. Scenery is beautiful with the fort in view. Would recommend the 2 hour walk along the coast too. Would definitely stay again.

Clean, nice location and Devi was great at communicating and ensuring we were happy with the stay!

This place is amazing in many aspects! Highly recommend for a family visiting the area and also for exploring London in a 40 minutes ride with the train. The flat is very spacious, modern, with many amenities, well equipped and with a lot of nice touches! Situated in literally 1 min walking distance from the train-station. A very modern residential area 5 min away from the historical center of Rochester. Would definitely choose this place again

Great stay and ideal location to all things in Erith.

Had a fabulous stay - location was excellent - near restaurants, food, transport - the Castle Park - so beautiful - the Unit had everything we needed - and was easy to find and locate key etc. Safe and secure. We will be back! Thanks

What an incredible location! We loved the sea views and being able to walk into Herne bay for an ice cream so easily. You had everything we needed and were so helpful if we ran into any problems. Don’t miss visiting this gem if you get the chance!

Ria’s place was fantastic.Great location minutes from the sea front.Spotless clean and everything you needed was there .Very good selection of toys which the baby loved.Everything was so easy to use from the shower to the hob and oven etc . Ria even made arrangements to have the house ready for us from 11am when we enquired if we could just drop our bags off early as we’d been travelling from 4 am. That to us was an amazing gesture 🤩

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!

Perfect spot, lovely views, very comfortable. Lovely little playground opposite the corner for a fun afternoon with our little one. Thank you Melanie!

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.

This was an absolutely perfect stay. The house is enormous yet homely, beautifully appointed and with the most breathtaking views. The pool and spa are an added bonus and the path down to the beach / estuary is gorgeous. All in all an absolutely fabulous place and we will be back. Thank you xxx

Fantastic place to stay, comfortable, smart and very clean. Check in and out was straight forward and easy. Tanya was a great host and easy to communicate with, thank you for our stay!

Two families stayed at Terry and Shirlie’s beautiful home. We had such a wonderful time there. The minute you walk in, everything is clean and fresh. Every single detail has been thought out from the lamps, to the mirrors, it’s really wonderful. You can see so much care has gone into their home. The location is brilliant and the list of recommendations for food and local amenities is so good. Terry was so brilliant at replying back so quickly and also really helped us out with a flexible check in/ out too. I would highly recommend staying here and we had 3 children with us. Thank you so much Terry and Shirlie!

Great location, nice and quiet. Close to the beach and 10 minute walk to the pier. Looked like the pictures and exactly as I was expecting. Sofa and beds were comfy and plenty of afternoon sun on the balcony.

Is a lovely flat for getting around Medway. perfect location for shopping at dockside or popping to the nearby restaurants. stocked tea and coffee which we appreciated.

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

Would come again, lovely and secure parking.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Belinda flat, and I can confidently say it was one of the best experiences I've ever had! From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the spotless cleanliness and thoughtful touches throughout the space. The decor was modern yet cozy, making it feel like a true home away from home. Belinda went above and beyond to ensure my stay was perfect, providing everything I could possibly need—from a fully equipped kitchen to luxurious linens and toiletries. The location was ideal, situated in a quiet neighborhood but just a short walk away from the train station. The attention to detail was impeccable, and it was clear that Belinda genuinely cares about her guests' comfort and experience. Communication with Belinda was smooth and easy, with quick responses. Overall, this flat exceeded all my expectation and provided an unforgettable stay. If you're looking for a place that combines style and comfort, look no further—this is it!

Stunning spot. Above and beyond expectation. Nikki was a lovely host. We will definitely be back. We loved being outside of the more tourist area. Everything really relaxing and thoughtfully laid out. A plus is the amazing restaurant downstairs. They even delivered to us!

Friendly and very responsive host. Will be staying here again.

Perfect location for the town and for the beach. Parking always within a short walk. Apartment is well equipped and surprisingly spacious.
