  • "The flat was beautifully warm, clean and had everything you might need."

    It was lovely having access to Sky Sports etc. and also we very much enjoyed having use of the Spa at the Harbour Hotel. This all made it a very enjoyable and relaxing winter holiday, thank you! A warning that the car parking space is extremely tight (it is the middle space along the right hand wall) We were fortunate in that the adjoining space for flat 12 was not occupied, otherwise it would have been difficult with our SUV. Also worth mentioning is that access to the flat is round the back, up a small flight of steps. Once inside, the lift is of no use as the entrance is between floors with no access to the lift at that level. The entrance to Atlantis is up half a floor by a flight of stairs - so not suitable for anyone disabled. A note for the flat owner that the toilet in the bathroom was overflowing into the toilet pan constantly and wasting expensive S.W Water!

    Thank you for your lovely review, it is great to see that you had such a fantastic holiday! We appreciate your feedback and will certainly investigate your concerns regarding the toilet. If you have any booking queries, feel free to get in touch, the Carbis Bay Holidays office is open Monday – Saturday 9-5.30 and we can always be reached on 01736 630015. Property Owner

    Well furnished and comfortable, clean, well presented and attractively decorated. We were particularly impressed with the range of books, games and entertainment options, and the property 'manual' was detailed and helpful. It was the perfect base for our visit to St. Ives, close to a wide mix of restaurants and shops. Thank you.

  • "Having booked a week we could see the property was available to go 2 days earlier which we requested- there was no response from Sykes we had to chase to discover it had been okayed but we were not made aware."

    We then had to deal with an internal water leak which woke us up dripping in the bedroom. With bowls and towels we were able to minimise damage and report it asap. Very surprised we have no acknowledgment of our efforts to protect the property, we sent photos and email as requested to Carbis bay holidays, disrupting our planned Christmas week day. We have had no apologies from yourselves, carbis bay holidays or the landlord .

    Thank you for your feedback, we are very sorry to hear of the issues you experienced during your stay. We have since been in contact with yourselves and we hope we have come to a positive outcome.

  • "This is a beautifully decorated and furnished apartment with lovely sea views from the balcony."

    We made ourselves at home straight away and enjoyed stepping out onto the balcony from either patio door. The bed and living room furniture are comfortable and the bathrooms are modern and useful to have an en-suite. We loved staying at Atlantis and thank you for the bottles of milk, lemonade and biscuits. The only constructive criticism is we had nowhere to put tins/bottles in the kitchen, it missed another wall cupboard but we just put them in the corner out of the way. We don’t have an Espresso machine and it was a nice touch that we could have coffee and use the machine. Everything in the property is done to a high standard. It also came with a dedicated parking space which is hard to find in St Ives. We would definitely recommend Atlantis

We had to remove a shelf to put milk in the refrigerator. The bottom tray in the salad container in the refrigerator was also cracked. I telephoned the number in the pack around 9.30am on Friday morning to report these issues as we didn’t want to be held responsible. I said I wasn’t worried about the issues being fixed immediately, the lady I spoke to said that someone would pop around with new tumblers. Nothing was delivered during our stay.

    Just a couple of things of little things that we feel need some attention , the main bathroom had some mould , the plastic seal on the shower glass had come away and needed replacing also the height getting out the bath was a little difficult. We didn't use the ensuite shower as it was quite tight. The Kichen had nowhere to put any food we used the vegetable rack there is a good space at the side of the bin that a larder cupboard could go or more units. There were lots of mugs but not many glasses could do with a few more. The shelf in the side door of the fridge has a broken catch so we couldn't put anything in that and a couple of scuffs on the paintwork in the main bedroom. These are all just little things to make you aware if you were not already just constructive criticism and obviously due to wear and tear.

    A few minor issues were lack of space for food, the bed to the rear of the property was very uncomfortable and the pillows were in need of updating. Draws by the side of the bed wouldn’t stay closed and the bedroom door kept opening if you had the window slightly open, maybe a catch issue! The en-suite bedroom the shower was very small and lost temperature and pressure. Couldn’t access some channels on the tv, like now tv and had some issues with the remote controls. I must compliment the overall decor of the apartment and the bedding and towels were of good quality. Little extra touches of shortbread, milk and mini toiletries were nice too!

  • "Property was lovely, furniture good standards, beds very comfortable & sheets were lovely."

    On arrival our parking space was taken - after waiting an hour we discovered it was the cleaner to one of the other properties (she was running an hour late & had chosen to park in our space which meant we had nowhere to park as there are no other spaces) Phoned the holiday company for help & they said there was little they could do - so had the car not moved I’m not exactly sure where we would have parked. Most parking spaces on the complex are very small and not big enough for a large car. Where we had to park it was a struggle to fit in. Wifi didn’t work at all - contacted holiday company who said they’d send someone out on the Monday (we arrived in the Saturday) but nobody ever came. They did provide us with another wifi code which did work but still wasn’t great. Handle on the door to one of the cupboards in the hallway was hanging off - looked like it had been for a while so couldn’t get into that cupboard. Description of the property says it has a utility room - it doesn’t - it has a cupboard with a washing machine in it. Main bathroom needs attention with pointing in on the tiles. The shower cubicle in the en-suite is tiny - literally even a smaller person struggles to move in it. Towards the end of the week the shower also wouldn’t get hot so had the use the other one. The dining table is in the hallway which we found odd - like there was nowhere else to put it - photos make it look like there is a separate dining room but there isn’t. Literally no space in any cupboard in the kitchen to put food - seemed to be lots of useless items in the cupboards which meant no room for anything else. The property was advertised as having Now TV but it didn’t work - we thought it was the remote control but changed the batteries and still didn’t work. Overall a nice apartment but a lot of the ‘extras’ advertised were misleading and wouldn’t stay there again. We have stayed in another apartment in the same complex which was by far superior to this one.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback and comments following your stay at Atlantis. We are pleased you have overall found that Atlantis is a nice property for a holiday by the sea and are very sorry about the parking issue you have experienced on your arrival day. After you have contacted us, we have tried our best to resolve the situation but unfortunately we were unable to reach out to the cleaner of another apartment at Gallina's Point who blocked your parking space for a while. There were also no other parking spaces available in the car park at the time we could offer you.

We can assure that we will have a close look if all issues are now rectified going forward and are apologise again that you have not experienced our usual standard during your stay.

  • "We have stayed at Gallinas Point before (Clearwater 2019) and were very impressed by the quality of the accommodation and location."

    Had a bit of a problem getting past the barrier as instructions supplied a bit lacking in detail. They should be updated to say that when you arrive the LCD panel says ‘Enter Flat Number’ - don't put your flat number in as this activates intercom! Key in ‘0’ and press enter, the screen will say ‘Code’ and then put in the last four digits of the code supplied and press ‘Enter’ - simple once you know! The ‘Aquarius’ property was really comfortable, well furnished, clean and as shown in the brochure. Everything was really excellent. The only observation we would make is that it would be good to update the description of the Nespresso machine to say that it uses Virtuo pods not the standard ones as none of the stores/supermarkets in St. Ives, Carbis Bay, West Cornwall Shopping Centre or Hayle currently stock Nespresso Virtuo capsules so once you’ve used the ones supplied (9), your only coffee option is the cafetière or instant.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed staying in Atlantis and found it clean and comfortable.

    Ives and also Caribis Bay beach. Loved the apartment and the side view of Porthminster beach. The kitchen is well stocked but there is nowhere to put your own groceries. The decor is lovely and the bed in the main bedroom is very comfortable. We slept extremely well. The main bathroom needs updating. There is a big step down out of the bath to the floor which I would imagine may be an issue for some people. The bathroom floor needs regrouting. The en-suite shower cubicle is very small so anyone larger simply cannot use it. The door also does not completely shut. If we had been sharing the apartment this would have been a major issue. The toilet flush buttons were quite hard to push and sometimes needed two hands. The patio door locks are very fragile and we didn’t like to lock them as we felt that the key or lock may break. Apart from the above niggles we loved staying there. The little touches like milk, biscuits etc. on arrival was appreciated. Little extras like leaving a shopping bag, umbrella, coffee pods etc are great. All in all a great holiday. If the bathrooms were updated I would not hesitate to return.

  • "We arrived at the property around 5 pm."

    The key safe instructions are very misleading. We got through the car park barrier ok and then “looked for a key safe on wall to the left of the property” which we couldn’t find. However, we used the code for the communal door and went up to the apartment to find the key safe on the wall to the right of the apartment door as you look at it! I think the instructions need clarifying. The apartment was exceptionally clean and tidy and was as seen on the website. We used the king size bed which seemed a little small and was quite low to the ground and not particularly comfortable. In hindsight, we should have used the two single beds zipped together which were proper divans and higher but we didn’t. We did have a problem with the Now tv box in that there was an age restriction of 12 years set on the films. We should have been able to override this by putting in a pin code given in the information book in the apartment. However, the pin in the book was not the one set on the tv. We rang the company who weren’t much help. They said they would contact the owner and get back to us which they didn’t do and so our viewing was restricted. Both being over 60, it would have been nice to watch an odd movie made for over 12s but overall it didn’t ruin our break. On the whole we were very happy with the apartment and would definitely use it again.

Disappointed the PS4 didn’t work as it was one of the reasons we booked and the dining chair leg came off when my husband sat on it.
