We had a really good time.
Very modern. It was really good to have a decent, complete kitchen set rather than the one rusty saucepan, old plastic spoon and broken knife you might get elsewhere in older properties. The property owners have obviously spent some time thinking about what would make peoples lives easier while on holiday as everything was to hand and in good condition. Good internet was also a bonus to do research into day trips, you could probably do a working holiday too if you wanted to (you don't). Place was really clean. Beds and sofas were really comfy and it's in the right place as a base to go and visit...well...anywhere really. Its an hour and a bit to get to Dover by car and you can't get much further without getting your feet wet. Also 5 mins walk from the train station so you can hop on and do a tour of East Kent easily. Whitstable itself is a cross between independent shops and big multi's. There are 2, fantastic, independent coffee shops within a few minutes walk, but if you really want a costa, it's 10 minutes walk away in the center of town. You can get your beer from Sainsburys, or there is an independent store with local ales just down the road. You can get a fish supper from the Co-op, or you can go down the sea front and have it cooked almost fresh off the boat for you right then and there. Only 2 downsides, and I think this first one is known as every room had a (decent) fan, the place is HOT, especially the top room. The best airflow you could hope for was to open the back door and the Juliet window on the 1st floor. This meant that all the other doors had to be closed to stop them slamming. The other downside, and it's not really the properties fault, is getting your car in and out of Whitstable itself. Very narrow roads, but then the village is 400 years old. I'll probably be thin too by the time I get that old! That inconvenience is a small price to pay really. It is a very pleasant place to stay.

The property generally was quite good but with a few problems.
1. The wooden slats under the mattress were damaged causing the mattress to fall though them the first time I used it. I managed to patch them up temporarily. 2. The bedding was awful. All polyester- causing my wife and I to sweat profusely, made worse by the warm weather. We ended up buying a new cotton duvet cover, sheet and pillowcases. 3. The shower was excellent (one of the best I have ever used) but the shallowness of the shower tray meant I had to keep checking to see if it was overflowing. 4. Wi-Fi. Couldn't get it to work on any of our devices. Maybe it was my ineptitude. Maybe it was the complicated password which had been written with amendments added to it. Very frustrating. I gave up with it. 5. The Ninja had not been washed/cleaned prior to our arrival. There was a significant amount of oil and food residue left in it. I cleaned the inside containers myself but they were pretty grubby and needed soaking, suggesting to me they had not been cleaned properly for some time. 6. The house itself was good apart from the above niggles. The location was fantastic with easy walking access to the beach, Whitstable and Tankerton. The bus stopping outside was a real bonus allowing us to travel to Canterbury and Herne Bay. 7. Sykes. I didn't like doing business with the rental company. I thought the tone of their emails to be abrupt bordering on threatening. I was surprised by the booking fee. They charged me for a pet which I did not request. I won't book through them again.

We liked: Immaculately clean.
Jacuzzi bath and good shower (drain will need attention soon). Nice jumbo towels, good bedding with clip-together duvets for different seasons. Bring your own beach towels. Well-equipped kitchen (we only missed a salad spinner!) Nice seaside themed paintings Parking on-site for one and nearby on-street parking Easy ten minute walk to the sea Kiddies park and shop nearby Welcome gifts, thank you We didnât like: The house is in Westmeads Road not Diamond Road, as given Blinds give privacy but donât block out light in top front bedroom - we had portable black-out with us Clearly stated in details but no bathroom on top floor we found was a nuisance for nighttime for us Thought there might have been beach supplies in the shed: buckets, spades, would have been welcomed Pull-out washing line would be helpful in the garden - the rack blows over in the wind Kiddies step-stools to reach basins would have been very useful

A lovely spotlessly clean house with everything we needed for our week long stay.
There is a convenient off road parking bay at the front of the house and a small enclosed courtyard at the back where we were able to store our bikes and enjoy our afternoon tea making use of the patio table and chairs. The property is perfectly situated for the town centre, harbour, and sea front. It is also close to the railway station from where there is a frequent service to other towns along the coast and beyond. There is also a frequent bus service to Canterbury although we enjoyed biking there down the traffic free "Crab & Winkle Way ". Whitstable is a lovely typically English seaside town and we can definitely recommend this property for anybody wishing to stay there, although the less mobile should be aware it is spread over 3 storeys.

This is a lovely cottage with a great view and access to the beach. It also has a an excellent, well-equipped kitchen and breakfast area, a delightful bedroom, an excellent bathroom with walk in shower, capacaious and new washing machine and dryer, and a great lounge. The front patio overlooks the beach and is a tea place to sit on a sunny day or to watch the sun go down. And if it’s wet, there is a great TV with satellite and internet services, and loads of good books and games. All in all, Iluka is a great place for a peaceful stay with all mod cons by the beach.
