Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
A big spacious flat above the shops with views over the sea. Well equipped and very comfortable. Owners are very friendly and helpful. Only downside is that you do get some kitchen smells and a nightbtime equipment noise at the back of the property which is over the cafe. We soon got used to this and it didn't spoil our holiday in any way. We would certainly return. There is so much to do within this area of Pembrokeshire. Lots of Castles, fantastic beaches and a trip to Caldey Island is a must.

"Excellent stay at the Pirate and enjoyed overlooking the seafront with beautiful views."
The accommodation was well equipped and laid out, having everything we needed and was very comfortable. Parking was not a problem with the permit provided and we were able to walk to pubs and shops easily. The only minor issue we had was intermittent noise from a fridge (?) in the cafe downstairs overnight, which woke our baby in the back bedroom on several occasions, but would not want that to negatively reflect on an excellent stay and would definitely return to the property.

"Fabulous sea views, apartment was clean a little dated but had everything we needed."
Main issue we had was the beds in the twin rooms were not very comfortable also at night the noise from the fridges or a compressor from down stairs was very loud. Which meant it was very difficult to get to sleep, Bedrooms could also do with blackout curtains as bedrooms were very bright from 06.00.

"Wonderful place to stay."
Owners very helpful. Ideal for exploring the area with restaurants, pubs and a shop. The cafe underneath the flat is ideal for breakfast, fish & chips, cakes and ice-creams.
Would highly recommend.

"Really good accommodation for a large family group."
Great position on the sea front overlooking Amroth beach. Large apartment with plenty of room in the lounge area to spread out. 4 bedrooms were of an adequate size and comfortable enough. 2 bathrooms were well equipped with walk in shower and a bath with towels and some toiletries provided. Kitchen had all major appliances Including a large fridge, dishwasher (tablets provided) , oven and hob unit. Very homely rather than luxurious ideal for families. Our only minor negative observation was we couldn't find a hair dryer in the accommodation or a knife sharpener.? Would definitely use this accommodation again and highly recommend it as a great place for a family to stay.

"Lovely apartment overlooking the sea."
Spacious and comfortable but unfortunately the compressor attached to the outside wall which runs the walk in fridge for the cafe downstairs makes the most horrendous noise throughout the night, resulting in very little sleep for us all. It was so loud in the twin bedroom at the rear that my granddaughter couldn’t stay in that room and had to share the other twin room with her older brother. Not an ideal situation for a teenage boy! We enjoyed our holiday despite this but would not stay in this property again because of the lack of sleep caused by the disturbance.
Thankyou for your feedback. I am in the process of addressing the issue of the compressor noise. The refrigeration engineer was on site yesterday to address the situation 23/8/22 and discussed re siting the compressor so its taken off the the main building wall, so no noise will be evident in the bedroom. This work will be carried out A.S.A.P.
Many Thanks

Was lovely and quiet despite the shop and cafe underneath, which came in very handy and they do takeaway fish and chips - the best I’ve had in a long time!
Parking was easy enough, and free with the parking token they provide (x2).

"We really enjoyed our time at The Pirate."
The cafe downstairs does wonderful breakfast buns that are really hot and filling. We were pleasantly surprised that Amroth has so much life about it but without it being commercial or noisy. The local National trust gardens were lovely and it was so easy to get to other places around and yet stay somewhere away from the maddening crowd. The view from The Pirate is fantastic and it’s so light and spacious. We saw seals in the sea from the lounge window.
