"Ocean View is a beautiful apartment and very tastefully decorated."
The kitchen is very well-equipped and the spacious bathroom superb with the most fluffiest towels. I loved the view out to sea from the large lounge windows and I had the best sleep ever in the very comfortable bed.
5-10 mins easy flat walk along the promenade into Weymouth town and the Old Harbour just beyond is lovely for a stroll around with plenty of eateries. Weymouth is very well situated for visiting lovely Dorset.
Thank you so much for the lovely welcome hamper and milk which was a lovely surprise and was very much appreciated.
I hope very much to return.

Very comfortable & welcoming. The decor was beautiful. Views from the lounge & kitchen were stunning & the sun loungers on the balcony were a great feature. They were in a real sun trap each morning so we ate breakfast out there.
Location was perfect away from the busy end but walking distance from everything.

"This was our second Christmas at Ocean Retreat and cannot rate it highly enough."
For us the comfort of the apartment and position is first class. To hear the sea from the lounge with the massive windows makes you feel like you are on the seafront. The facilities in the kitchen are wonderful and I cooked a second Christmas dinner here with no problem. The added touches of a lovely Christmas tree and wine and chocolates along with the Dorset Company hamper makes it that extra special.

2 small complaints - the first is the fact that there was dog excrement on the parking area near the door to our 'cottage''... - the second is that we needed more towels - just small ones as they also used as 'hair drying' towels...

I think its the quieter end of town but there was always something to watch at sea and on the beach. The sound of waves on the shingle was very soothing. We were able to watch the New Years fireworks from the balcony. The kitchen is well equipped, with a useful welcome hamper. Thankyou Zac and Liesl for the New Year gift!

"What a stunning property!"
Beautifully decorated and in a fantastic location. The commanding views from the living room were truly spectacular, one could spend hours watching the boats and kite surfers. The balcony was an added bonus although sadly the weather turned the week we were there and after a 3 month drought we had thunderstorms nearly every night. Even these were spectacular to watch from the apartment.
The kitchen was well equipped, the bathroom is fabulous - the size of that shower is great for someone like me (6'6" tall)
The bed was extremely comfortable (please tell me the make..I want one!) The only downside were the pillows which were like a ships biscuit - flat and hard!
I really hope that this apartment is available next time we are down. Highly recommended
Just a quick note from the owners to say thank you for the feedback and to say have replaced the pillows now.

Everything has been so well thought out and beautifully done. I used to craft in glass and really appreciated the Jo Downs! But all the other art so well done from the agate slices to the art on the lounge and bedroom walls. Wondered if any of it was done by the owners? Very well equipped and the terrace is a lovely place to sit, as is the view from the lounge. Also in a good location. We have booked two more weeks and will probably book a third one. Absolutely ideal for us. Thank you.

Loved just sitting on the sofa (or outside on the deck) and watching the sea. Very relaxing.
The apartment is very well equipped and the kitchen, although small, contains everything you need except maybe cupboard space for your own groceries (but can just move things around to create space). One tip - if you plan on cooking on a daily basis bring dishwasher tablets as only 2 were provided.
I really enjoyed my stay here and happy to give it a thorough recommendation.

"The wow factor as you first walk into the living room and out onto the balcony with the most amazing view over Weymouth Bay, and the sound of the waves lapping on the beach below cannot be beaten."
The apartment has everything you can think of and more, and is so beautifully decorated. Everything has been thought of - the chair and footstool in the living room by the sash windows give the best views if the weather is not so good, and the balcony is perfect for sunbathing or just sitting and watching the world go by - if you are up early enough the sunrise is spectacular. The beach is a 2 minute walk and was never crowded.
We barely used the car - a lovely walk into Weymouth along the prom and to Bowleaze cove the other way - the lookout café on the way to Bowleaze does amazing breakfasts and cake.
A huge thank you to Kirsty who helped when one of the windows had stuck open - you are an absolute star!!
It was our first child free holiday - we will definitely stay there again.

"This is an excellent apartment, only recently beautifully furnished in modern style."
Extremely good location to the Promenade and the Beach, and to walk in to Weymouth itself. High speed wifi. Very comfortable bed. Balcony ideal for the morning sun and having breakfast there.
Suggestions to improve:
A Fan in the bedroom for cooling as due to the bedroom location at the front on ground level it is only practical to open the window a small distance.
The television system and the remote control in the lounge is very slow and only limited channels.
