Waterfront vacation rentals in Scarborough

Fantastic apartment with more than enough space. Check in was very easy. Communication from Pete was superb and he responded to any questions immediately. We stayed for a golf trip and there was loads of space for storage of clubs etc. The location and view…. Out of this world. Would recommend without any hesitation

We had a lovely few days at The Sands, lovely apartment, it had everything you would need, amazing views and fantastic location.

Carolyns place is perfect for a trip toYork. Within walking distance to everything, but tucked away just outside the busy city center. Clean and comfy. Id stay again.

This is a comfortable flat with lovely views over the river Esk. Easy to walk into the centre of Whitby with plenty of pubs and restaurants close by. It was well equipped, clean and tidy. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is an excellent base if you are visiting York. Its a really comfortable and well equipped apartment with a lovely view from the balcony.

Really great location on the river, not far from the station and really close to the historic heart of York.

Amazing location and it is even larger than expected! The pictures do not actually do it justice. As others have said, there is a separate sitting room with a TV in it that connects to all major streaming networks easily and quickly. the Wi-Fi in the flat was not perfect but it was appropriate for the location. Besides, most people do not go to a beautiful place like Whitby and work like I did. There was public Wi-Fi available for free around the entire town of Whitby that was much faster. I ended up connecting to that as well. Fantastic communication and check in instructions! All in all, The Lookout completely exceeded my expectations - I will be back!

Smart and clean, everything I needed. Location was perfect

Wow! What a beautiful cottage in Staithes. The beds were super comfy, beautifully decorated throughout with everything needed for a self catering stay. The host David, was really friendly and met us on arrival to show us around the cottage. He even dropped off a pack of cards later in the day as we had forgotten ours! Stunning views on opening the lounge doors to hear the birds nesting in the cliffs and watch the tide coming in. We will definitely be staying again, soon hopefully! Thank you

A super cottage in a beautiful , peaceful location overlooking the river. The cottage was comfortable, well equipped and very spacious for 4 adults. Cara was a responsive and helpful host. The location is perfect for getting to Whitby, the NE coast or the North Yorkshire Moors. We walked into Whitby on the beautiful riverside path, accessible and only 35 mins. We happily recommend.

The place is in a fantastic location with beautiful views across the harbour. The rooms are spacious, clean and homely. Great pub The Cod and Lobster has a great selection of beers and a huge Gin list. The food there is fantastic and reasonably priced. We will be going back next year and looking forward to staying at the Old Watch House again!!

We stayed here for the weekend for our annual girls city trip. It was in an amazing location being right by the city centre and was a great price too. Louise was a great host always on hand providing clear instructions for check in / check out and offering to help with anything else we needed.

Wow! What an amazing place this is. Just as seen on the pictures. Beautifully furnished, the hosts have thought of everything you might need for your stay. The location is right on the beach with access to Filey and other places only a short drive away. Vanda is a great host. She was really flexible with our requests for extra time to check out and responds quickly. We will be back!

Fantastic! This was our first holiday away with our toddler, and it was perfect. There were toys and books available, as well as a travel cot and high chair. The private garden was appreciated to kick a ball around. The whole place was immaculate and Lora should be very proud of this place. Big bonus - during a heatwave, the bedrooms remained max 22 degrees (we bought our room thermometer from home). We kept the curtains closed all day and everyone slept well at night in the cool. The fish and chip shop up the hill provided us with a delicious takeaway for our first night. It was only 10 minutes drive to the local Lidl, and another 10 to Whitby town centre. We may well be back!

Lovely riverside home. Short walk to the Rambles, the Minster, Roman Wall and more. Easy check-in and a very warm welcome! A wonderful experience for our group of 4 ladies. The view is AMAZING!

We had a lovely stay in monkeypowder. We loved the layout with the bedrooms downstairs and living area on the ground floor. The living room has great sea views and an area to sit and lookout. There is a huge comfortable sofa and great wallpaper of a view of Scarborough. The kitchen is modern and well equipped and a great space to enjoy a meal together. The bedrooms are spacious with comfortable beds and a modern ensuite. The apartment was spotlessly clean and we loved the quirky furniture. Free parking was a bonus and a great location to explore Scarborough.

Amazing views. Cosy apartment. Spent a long weekend here and would definitely come back!!!

great place central location, Easy to access with clear instructions on how to find it amd check in, quick response with any communications, great place, great views, great price, I will definitely be back and will recommend it to friends and family. thanks

This is our second time staying in this lovely flat . It’s light , airy , modern and very clean -and we love the view over the Foss River . We also love how close it is to the city centre - we were able to walk in very quickly , it took about 10 minutes . Definitely recommend this little gem ! We will be back

We stayed here for four night at the start of the Summer 2025. The cottage is right on the pier in the middle of Whitby. We basically dropped the bags off parked the car and forgot about driving anywhere for the entire time we were at Whitby. Highly Recommended.

Thank you for an wonderful stay. The view is beautiful from the living room. The apartment itself was clean, tidy and of generous size. The beds are comfortable, which helps with the amount of walking we did. Richard has made the apartment a home from home with everything you need!! We always forget something, this time is was a toothbrush charger and there was one to use in the bathroom. It is one of the best air b&b we have stayed at, we cannot wait to return. The gardens opposite were lovely to walk around before heading into town. It's a short drive down to Bempton cliffs, Filey (highly recommend cjs for fish & chips) and Cayton bay. The coffee van called Nova outside the apartment was perfect for when we needed a barista style drink. 9am flat white, the kids loved their milkshakes and the owner was super lovely 😀. It was perfect and we didn't want to leave! there is only 1 small negative and that's the pigeons squarking away from 5am every morning on the metal balcony. 😬

Great views. Great location. Awesome amenities. You do have to climb 40+ steps, but it is totally worth it, but you have to be able to do it.

So good we stayed a third night! Easy walking distance of the main central attraction as you’re within the old city wall limits. Loved the decor and had everything we needed. Really enjoyed York!

It's a lovely Flat in a beautiful location with fabulous views. Essential to know that bringing some supplies is essential as Sandsend doesn’t have a grocery or cornor store location. There are pubs and restaurants some of which are very nice.
