The Captains Suite

NicolaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Beautiful apartment and well thought out. Shared garden space is huge and again beautifully designed and well thought out and importantly for us secure. Our doggies loved it too. So near to the beach we could swim and dry off back at the apartment. A short walk and you have all the great bars and restaurants Mersea offers. Kelly is a great host ,very responsive and accommodating.

SEA VIEW apartment - 3 min walk from Old Leigh

VanessaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
The apartment is lovely - the beds are comfortable, it feels spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. It’s in a great location and has a beautiful view of the Estuary which really made the stay special. Trevor was very helpful, the welcome information gave us everything we needed to know and there was a kind touch of leaving biscuits and milk for us when we arrived, along with there being coffee and tea, etc available. A super Airbnb, would highly recommend and I’m sure we’ll be back. Many thanks Trevor!

Entire Artistic Open-Apartment by trains/airport

KirstyRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Stayed in this lovely loft for a few days on a trip to Southend. Felt very homely and had everything we could have needed. Great that the tv was all set up with the apps and easy to watch all the streaming services, and games and books available if we fancied a night in. Cupboard was stocked with essentials for cooking and the coffee and biscuits were a nice touch. Would definitely recommend and would stay again.

Unique Wedge Shaped Seaside Beach House

LeanneRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We had a great night at the wedge house. It’s a very cool quirky little house. Brilliant location for Adventure Island. Not the hosts fault but the street itself is quite run down and we had to listen to the boy racer cars all evening. But didn’t take away from the stay because us and the kids had a great time. Ria was very helpful as a host and was so kind to put up balloons and banners for us for my daughter’s birthday. I would definitely recommend for a trip to Southend.

The Cosy Palm

emmaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Sometimes all you want is to relax and Emma's caravan enabled us to do just that. It helped that the weather was perfect and we were able to enjoy the afternoon sunshine and a pm BBQ on the Friday. We enjoyed the space provided inside the caravan. Walks around the island along the beach and coastline are possible from the site. Lovely friendly staffed pub restaurant on site called Sandbanks and walkable to other sea front restaurants. We wouldn't hesitate to booked The Cosy Palm again.

What a fantastic stay! Kim was very communicative in the booking and check in process. The flat was spotless on arrival and she had left lots of treats for the stay with coffee/tea/condiments/spices. It felt just like a home away from home. The location was fantastic for walking everywhere as it's so close to the train station. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could!

Cottage Garden Annex with Ensuite Wet-room

RebeccaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We stayed here for a couple of days whilst visiting family in Frinton. It was peaceful, extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean, well equipped. The bed was very comfortable and we had a good night's sleep. Carole's garden was very lovely with a friendly dog running around. Carole herself was friendly, relaxed and helpful. Well situated for Frinton and surrounding area. Definitely recommended.

Sunflower - Westcliff Apartments

OsmanRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Chris & Hilary were wonderful hosts, they were very proactive and made sure we had every bit of detail about the property and its surroundings. The property is beautiful and clean and its located within short walking distance from the beach. We also loved the private park garden which was our pull factor to the property. Check-in and checkout process was very easy and straightforward. The Internet speed was great and the bed is very comfy. Me and my wife tried to think of any room for improvement to feedback to the hosts and we struggled to come up with anything. We definitely found our holiday home in Southend-on-Sea and we cant wait to stay there again. Thank you Chris & Hilary!

Stylish & Chic Seaside Apartment

CarysRating, 5 stars3 days ago
We're just home from a lovely stay at Daria's place in Southend. It was absolutely spotless when we arrived and beautifully decorated, you can tell alot of thought has gone in to every detail. You are very close to the main strip so you can hear the hustle and bustle if you're sitting in the garden (we enjoyed listening to it all!) but I can't say we noticed it that much when we went to bed. We had our one year old asleep in a cot in the room with us and he didn't stir at all so there you go! There's a Tesco express within walking distance for bits and bobs and you're so close to all the chippys and bars and the sea front. We will definitely be visiting again! Thanks Daria!
