10/10 Excellent

"..............................."

Panoramic View

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location next to marina and the beach, beautiful panoramic view on Swansea and surrounding hills, very close to shops and restaurants, there is the bar on 28th floor with amazing view in all directions, apartment is very nice, clean and comfortable, host is very friendly and told me what is worth to visit around, where I can find local shops and good restaurants. I really enjoyed my stay and would like to come back in the future."

Marina View Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely apartment with great views over the Marina and a short walk to the beach and coastal walk. Plenty of bars and good restaurants within 2 to 15 mins walk and lots to see. Only 20 mins walk into the town centre. Pescado restaurant below is fabulous. The apartment has good sized rooms, a well equipped kitchen and internet connect TV. There is free parking over the road arranged by the owner. The block has an elevator though it is only 2 floors up if you want the exercise. We may well go back. Recommend."

Scenic View

10/10 Excellent

"The apartment was absolutely immaculately clean. The beds were comfortable and the was plenty of space to relax in the lounge. The little balcony overlooking the marina was a lovely spot to have a cuppa! The location is very convenient for both the City Centre and the Beach. The host Joan was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come back to Scenic View."

Meridian Tower Apartment

8/10 Good

"Joan our host was pleasant & helpful, and was flexible wrt our check in. The location is good, with a small supermarket located opposite the apartment block entrance. The is an upmarket restaurant also opposite and another at the top of the building (we didn’t visit either this stay). The view from the top is very good. Our apartment was spacious & comfortable and we found the washing machine very helpful. We didn’t use the kitchen much; no coffee machine, and a couple of instant coffee/tea bags provided. It would have been nice to have had some basic kitchen staples (oil, condiments, etc provided) - but we managed without. The surrounding area is OK but in need of some TLC. Location was good - easy walk to the seaside, shopping area and pubs. Secure parking is available but parking spaces and turning circles are tight (we had a medium sized SUV). Overall a pleasant and convenient stay with a lovely host."
