  • "A beautifully maintained, well equipped and clean apartment."

    It is in a great quiet location with an outstanding view across the bay to St Ives. As with most properties in the St Ives/Carbis Bay area, you cannot avoid steep hills to get to anywhere. The only criticism of the property is that the mattresses are hard. Several other vsitiors have commented on this in the visitor book and in other online reviews.

    Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback after your stay. We are pleased to see that you enjoyed the outstanding views and the apartment was well equipped and clean for your stay. We hope to have the oppotunity to welcome you back again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

  • "Monowai Heights is probably one of the best apartments we have stayed in - superb location and outlook, stylish, modern comfortable furniture, top quality kitchen appliances and an extensive range of kitchenalia - all 5 star."

    But the detailed folder of information needs updating as do the instructions for getting to the apartment which led to some frustrations during our stay. However, this is certainly a very good base for a Cornish holiday.

    Thank you for your feedback we are pleased to see that you had a good holiday with us. We shall look into the points you have raised for future improverments. We hope to have the oppotunity to weclome you back again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

  • "A very well appointed apartment with excellent views."

    The apartment had almost everything we wanted. The only thing that could have improved the facilities would be some drawers in the bedroom for underwear etc. Parking would have been very tight if all 6 spaces were occupied. Fortunately only 3 were during our visit. Really enjoyed the easy access to the railway and bus services.

  • "We had a wonderful time, great apartment, great location, but the beds were so hard."

    We couldn't sleep well and it was very uncomfortable. Also the ventilation is not so good in the bathrooms. What a pity for such a great apartment.

    Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased to hear you had a wonderful time. Sorry to hear you thought the beds were uncomfortable we appreciate this is down to personal preference however we will pass this feedback onto the owner for their consideration, and we will be sure to take a further look into the ventilation in the bathrooms.

  • "A fantastic apartment, great location."

    The only observation I have, and this was noted by a previous guest in the feedback book at the property, the beds are too hard. I was not able to get a good night's sleep and often woke with backache. I would suggest that mattress toppers be fitted to both beds. If this is done guests can remove the topper is they find they want a harder mattress. I would urge the owners to consider this as this is the only thing that would prevent me from booking this apartment again.

  • "We had a very enjoyable stay at this property and were made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived."

    The apartment is decorated to a high standard and equipped with literally everything that you could possibly need for a beach holiday. The view from the back is absolutely amazing and the highlight for me. Carbis Bay is a beautiful base as it's quieter, away from the hustle and bustle of St ives with a beautiful beach. The apartment is around 3-5 min walk from the train station where you can jump on a train to st ives, it takes 3 mins on the train. I would highly recommend this apartment!

  • "Wonderful property, very spacious modern living/dining/kitchen area, very well appointed, cannot fault it."

    Bedrooms are small in comparison, but both en-suite showers. Some arrival issues encountered, but very promptly sorted by Carbis Bay hols, even on a bank holiday, thank you so much! Very limited TV access, which may or may not be important, but if there is bad weather or children present might be an issue. The inside and outside sea view bi-fold doors really need identifying as to which are openable or not with instructions, only the left hand doors to the patio open, which were very stiff, no details in introduction booklet. Only found this out from the lovely lady who sorted out our arrival issues. Very quiet property day and night, storms passed by without us noticing! Outside space very lovely too. Parking could possibly be tight at times. Would certainly consider returning to this property, but there is a lot of competition in the area.

We are sorry to hear that you experienced some issues with the arrival information, however are pleased to hear that it was resolved quickly and efficiently.

About the location

CARBIS BAY

St Ives 2 miles ; Hayle 3.5 miles ; Penzance 8.5 miles

Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.
