Shame about the cleanliness
The property itself is in a very good position, it’s a newish looking home with much potential. Unfortunately it isn’t cleaned very well. Kitchen draw handles grubby, carpet needs a steam clean (smells like urine as well as many stains), couches and walls also need to be cleaned. Upstairs pull out couch bed is uneven and sinks, so my son kept sliding inwards towards the couch. Upstairs could also be better configured with more bunks so the space is utilised for larger families like ours. I would not stay there again due to the cleanliness (or lack of).

Beachside Bliss
The property was nice and clean. However prior to arriving we were advised that the split systems for both floors were not working and that portable heaters were available. The portable heaters need a stable floor to work and as such were not practical to use in bedrooms with carpet. Even though we paid for the linen package there wasn't a hand towel provided for the main bathroom. It would have been nice to have extra toilet paper as well other than the one roll per toilet that was supplied. Overall the house is quite nice, clean and well furnished with plenty of space for the family. I would have liked for a discount to be considered as we were expecting split system heating and had to make do with portable heaters that were barely adequate.

A townhouse experience
The property was neat and tidy and it had all the amenities we required. Unfortunately both of the electrical split systems weren’t working properly, as in not working at all. There was only one little electric heater to warm the whole property up. It was not what you call sufficient in winter. The barbecue was also a bit sketchy.

Blissful stay at Beach Bliss
We had a nice stay at Beach bliss for a week. It was spacious and had all the amenities needed for cooking and washing. The only problem for us, I would have to say is the heating via reverse cycle air con units was loud and not warm enough for us at night as we are from the tropics.

Loved our stay at Beachside Bliss. The place was perfect our group, clean, comfortable, very close to the beach and a short walk to Cowes. It was very useful having a second sitting area/kids retreat! Owners easily contactable and helpful. Highly recommend.
