Having spent the previous week in a lovely Dorset cottage a few miles away, booked through Vrbo, we had high expectations. We were a bit disappointed to be honest. On the positive side, the location is fantastic, amazing, superb! It is two minutes walk from the beach. There is a wonderful view from the bedroom window of the enormous bay - this must be one of the best views in the country - absolutely marvellous. The apartment is in a block of flats with a concierge at reception. The two concierge were both very helpful. When we arrived on the Saturday afternoon, we reported to reception and were asked if we had received our codes. The codes it turned out operated the lock to the apartment and the general access to the apartment block and the garage. We had not been given our codes so the concierge phoned the office for us and we got in. The first thing that hit us was overwhelming heat. We opened the windows and the door to the small balcony, but the heat continued. Again the concierge was helpful trying to adjust the heating controls and calling the rental office to get a fan delivered. It transpired that the previous occupants had left the heating set for 31 degrees. Later that evening we found a couple stranded outside the next door apartment to ours. They had just arrived from Malta. We tried to help them enter their key code and as they checked the number, we realised that they had been sent the number for our apartment. They tried to call the emergency number but without success. Eventually, they gave up and spent the night elsewhere. Other negatives included the very smelly toilet/ shower room where the fan failed to remove the smell that pervaded the apartment all week. There is a small balcony with a good view, but it was spoiled by the tobacco smoke rising or crossing from other balconies - the man below was a chain smoker and had on his balcony the most enormous collection of cigarette butts ever seen. Overall, for a couple the apartment was a bit claustrophobic. However, if you are looking for a pad with a fantastic view, and a guaranteed parking space very near the beach, this could be for you.

Many thanks for your feedback. I’m pleased that you loved the location and the spectacular view from this property, but we were disappointed that aspects of your stay were not up to scratch. Ospreys is part of a modern private block, developed specifically as luxury holiday apartments. Quay manages four on behalf of independent owners, but sadly we do not manage the block. The block managers decided in their wisdom to install a coded access system this season – each new guest is now sent a fresh code to access the building and the apartment. To say there have been teething troubles is, I’m afraid, a bit of an understatement! The system is working now, but we apologise for the confusion that arose during your stay. We were also perturbed to hear that the previous guest left the heating on full. I don’t know why the cleaners didn’t pick up on this, unless it was on ‘timed’ and therefore ‘off’ during the day. We had our plumbers investigate the smell in the bathroom but it is not coming from within the apartment. The issue has been reported to block managers and we are pressing them to resolve the problem. Sadly, whilst the properties we manage are strictly no-smoking, we do not manage the block so there may be smokers staying in other apartments which we don’t control. I do hope that these issues didn’t spoil your holiday too much and very much hope that we can welcome you back to the area in the not-to-distant future.

Location is the best bit about this property. The accommodation itself was pretty satisfactory. Not amazing but satisfactory. Some areas needs some attention / maintenance. The bed squeaks. 5 of the light bulbs were blown. TV is pretty old and slow with a temperamental remote. The dishwasher listed as a feature doesn't exist. Heating / Cooling is a mess - there's two room thermostats located in the room which appear to have no relevance to the underfloor heating, which was happily keeping the floors at a toasty 40c during hot weather. Although the thermostats suggest cooling is an option, it's not apparent where the cool air comes from! The TV remote control looked grubby - I would have thought with covid risks areas like this would have had particular attention with regards to cleaning. The carpet needed a good vacuum, was a fair bit of long hair lurking.
