Guests say

Flat 5 Fairwinds is a well-liked apartment in Poole, Dorset, praised for its prime location close to the beach and local amenities. Guests appreciate the clean bedrooms, decent-sized bathroom, and the quiet, peaceful setting. The apartment is noted for being well-equipped and dog-friendly, with some thoughtful touches that enhance the stay.

Reviews indicate a mix of experiences with cleanliness. While bedrooms are noted as clean, there are complaints about the living area's condition, including a filthy rug and dirty fridge. This suggests room for improvement in cleaning standards.

The location is highly praised for its convenience to the beach, coffee shops, restaurants, and the chain ferry. It is described as a peaceful area with lovely surroundings, contributing to a positive experience.

Guests find the bedrooms comfortable, but there are mixed reviews about the living room seating. Some guests mention the need for more comfortable sofas, indicating that while the comfort level is generally good, there is potential for enhancement.

The apartment is appreciated for being well-equipped with extra touches like a hair dryer and ironing facilities. However, there are suggestions for maintenance, such as replacing a scaled kettle and adding a coffee maker, indicating that some facilities could be updated.

While the reviews mention extra touches and a well-equipped apartment, there are no specific references to gifts provided by the owners. Therefore, it is not possible to assess the thoughtfulness in terms of gifts, and the score is set to null.

    Lovely peaceful location with leafy surrounds & playful squirrels.

  • Suzie

    Although it was in an apartment block, my experience was that it was very quiet throughout my stay. The flat was bright and cheerfully decorated. It was clean and well-equipped. Great to find a flat that takes dogs! Thank you to the owners and Sykes.

    .everything you need for a good holiday (a coffee maker of any sort would be a good addition!) definitely recommend and if staying in the area again would certainly rebook.
