Top Shell Bay Beach Hotel Reviews
Harbour Heights Hotel
8/10 Good
"Great location but could really do with a bit of TLC, the hotel is very dated for the price"
Bournemouth West Cliff Hotel & Spa
10/10 Excellent
"Great swimming pool very warm to, outside area is great also just need a little area for the kids. Maybe even a chalk board or slide Restaurant : bar staff were great! Room was great and aircon was brilliant Breakfast was good but needed more fruit options Such an easy walk to the beach to! Highly recommend and will stay again"
Holiday Inn Express Poole by IHG
10/10 Excellent
"Great breakfast but no choice of eggs only scrambled"
Bournemouth Highcliff Marriott Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful comfortable room, spacious, very comfy bed and bedding"
The Knoll House
10/10 Excellent
"I knew that it was an old building with an interesting history and that is part of its charm, so not surprising that it could do with a bit of maintenance. However, that did not affect my stay. I really enjoyed staying there, the room was clean and had everything I needed. The staff were attentive and helpful. The food was of good quality, well cooked and presented. The situation is lovely and I particularly enjoyed being able to sit on the lawn or terrace and enjoy the view. I was staying on my own but felt quite content, and comfortable to be there. I just needed to get away for a few days break and Knoll House proved to be the perfect place for me."
Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole
8/10 Good
"Air conditioning in the room incredibly hard to use effectively leading to very poor sleep Car park incredibly small however public parking 100 yards away"
Modern apartment on Sandbanks Peninsula, with private garden. (pet friendly)
10/10 Excellent
"Overall our stay was excellent right in the middle of a heatwave. Only niggle was slow water trickle and no hot water to hand basin in bathroom but put up with it as we were only there for 3 nights.Be aware double bed mattress is very soft!"
Sandbanks waterfront flat with panoramic views over Poole Harbour
10/10 Excellent
"A fantastic appartment in a wonderful location. Mark the host was honestly incredibly helpful before and during our stay and so accommodating. Highly recommend"
Where memories bring you back | Private Sauna
10/10 Excellent
"Villa Sofia is a wonderful place to stay. Donna is a fantastic host. The beds were super comfy, the kitchen is so well stocked, the house is immaculate and the robes were such a luxurious and unexpected addition.Being able to sit on the terrace and watch my daughter laugh and play on the swings, whilst the sun going down, was really special. We had such a memorable time at Villa Sofia and I would thoroughly recommend it."
