"We were delighted to find that the expectations arising from the excellent Sykes Advert were not misplaced, a great holiday retreat, particularly for 4 / 5 people."
Lovely house, great views and an easy flat, short walk to the local cafe overlooking a small locked Marina with a history dating back to the slate mines. A useful facility for the 'oldies'. The house has a great south westerly facing sundeck and there are glorious sandy beaches not far away for the sun seekers. We had mixed weather during our late September stay but the house proved to be snug, comfortable and warm. We used it as a base to explore North Wales, it's resorts, it's Castles and National Trust houses with their historical treasures such as - https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/wales/plas-newydd-house-and-garden. The 'Welsh Food Centre' - https://www.bodnant-welshfood.co.uk - was also well worth a visit for Sunday Lunch! A holiday to remember and we would love to return to 'White Sails'.
Fabulous to hear you had such a lovely stay at White Sails & the opportunity to explore the local area! I’m sure you found the beautiful view relaxing & hope you will have the chance to explore Snowdonia & the coastal walks in the future, we would be delighted to welcome you to White Sails again ☺️ Thank you for sharing your experience Property Owner

"Absolutely stunning property."
What we love the most is the peace and tranquility of the area and everyone is so friendly. I also loved the massive downstairs bedroom and huge bathroom with two access points and the top floor en-suite was amazing. The pictures are great but really don’t do it justice. With luxury accommodation and stunning views, it doesn’t matter what the weather is doing. If you want to eat out try Swellies Cafe(3 min walk), Garddfon Inn (10 min walk), or Ty Golchi Restaurant (5 min drive). We will definitely rebook for next year.
We are delighted to hear you had such a lovely stay at White Sails & made the most of the relaxing surroundings We look forward to welcoming you back next year ☀️ Property Owner

"Absolutely Perfect!"
We had a wonderful holiday,the house is beautiful everything has been thought of ,a real home from home,the photos don't do it justice. We choose this place as my 88 Yr old mum has dementia and cancer and the downstairs room was perfect for her needs,while she slept we could could keep an eye on her whilst enjoying the balcony and lovely view. The bathroom was stunning we went out to buy bubblebath just to try it out ha ha. The decor was lovely as were beds/bedding pillows ect ,it was just perfect, I would recommend a holiday here to anyone , I can't think of a single thing that I would change,will definitely be booking again for next year.
We are so delighted to hear you had such a wonderful stay, fabulous to hear how much your Mum enjoyed her own “Suite on The Welsh Riviera!” We would be delighted to welcome you again, it’s lovely to hear such wonderful feedback for White Sails & that our guests love it as much as we do ☀️ Property Owner

"A very comfortable house where you immediately feel at home ."
The house is light, spacious and airy and the views are amazing - just as the listing shows. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay with some unexpected touches for our furry companion (dog biscuits and throws ). We loved it so much we’ve already booked for next year !
We are delighted to hear you had such a lovely stay at White Sails, the view is quite incredible & we are so pleased you were able to get the best from your stay! Thank you for taking time to give a review & we hope you will be able to enjoy the amazing sunsets on “The Welsh Riviera” next time you come to stay Property Owner

"A lovely stay, comfortable and with a stunning view, we would all happily return."
Thank you for the welcome treats! One thing would be helpful, as there is a constraint on the development about hanging things out a tumble drier or a washer/drier rather than just a washing machine would have been useful.

"Beautiful house and thoughtful extras left on our arrival."
Thank you, we will miss that view!!!
-
"Absolutely amazing."
We will definitely be coming back.

"Radiators in top bedroom and bathroom need bleeding."
Light bulb in lounge standard lamp needs replacing. Not a problem or I would have contacted you but f.y.i. Nice property.

"Excellent location to waterfront, very well cleaned/kept property with top of the range furniture and excellent view of Menai Strait, large downstairs bathroom, a lot of parking spaces."
Attic bedroom/en-suite may not be suitable to everyone due to spiral staircase and small size shower/overhead space. Property being in private grounds has limited short walk for dogs (with no bins specially for poobags) but a nice long walk within walking distance nearby outside of the marina e.g. Lon Las Menai
Thank you very much for your feedback and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Just to let you know that White Sails has had a big renovation and the spiral have now been removed and a new bathroom installed with full height shower. Please take a look at the new photos Property Owner

"We thoroughly enjoyed our week at White Sails."
Not only was the location idyllic; the facilities were all that could be desired, the bed was comfortable, we were impressed with the quality of the fittings and furnishings, and particularly enjoyed the carefully co-ordinated decor throughout. Thank you; we would love to return. The welcome pack was unexpected and very much appreciated.
