Spectacular views from the property
Had a lovely stay at this at this property, it was very well equipped and the owner left a bottle of wine, pastries and milk for us which was a very thoughtful touch. The views of the Solent were spectacular and the apartment very comfortable. My only criticism would be that the flight of stairs up to the apartment are not really disabled friendly

Myself and my 3 friends booked to stay here for a couple of nights 21st -23rd July. The apartment was easy to find, and perfectly located for exploring both Swansea and Portsmouth. The rooms are large, light, roomy and airy and it has great views at the front over to the sea. There were lots of good restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. The kitchen was well equipped, although we all agreed a couple of tea towels would have been handy in the kitchen. There was loads of room for everyone to sit in the lounge, and we all really enjoyed our time in the apartment. Communication with the host was great and we had no issues whatsoever.

Family holiday Southsea
The property was easy to rent through the Vrbo website and queries to the owner were responded to promptly. The property made an excellent base to explore Southsea on foot and by car and the Historic Dockyards were only a 5 minute drive away. Jane was an excellent host who responded to our queries throughout the holiday and any concerns were sorted out promptly. We would happily stay here again.

Portsmouth At Its Best!
My family (two adults and two young kids) stayed at this fabulous property over the Jubilee weekend and honestly I was SHOCKED it wasn’t booked well in advance of when we went. This is an absolutely gorgeous property, somehow even prettier than it is in the pictures in the listing. It is about as ideal a location for seeing the sights of the city as it is possible to be, and it’s clear the property is extremely well maintained and thoughtfully presented. Jane is super responsive to any needs, and all her directions and tips were easy to follow. We had an amazing time - the kids were devastated to leave! - and I can’t think of a better place to stay in Portsmouth on any return trips. Book this place when you have the chance, or I will!

Great location, brilliant stay
We - 6 adults - had a fabulous weekend in this property, right on the seafront in Southsea. A bit like a TARDIS and bigger on the inside than you'd think! Warm, very comfortable and well-equipped, with plenty of space and enough hot water to keep everyone happy. Check-in was efficient, and communication with Jane (the host) was easy, prompt and reassuring. The property is but a 20-30 minute walk (depending on how much you meander along the sea wall) to Gunwharf Quays, the Dockyard, and similar into Portsmouth town. Close enough to the action, but not too close...

Beautiful flat across the road from the promenade. Great location close to a supermarket and the beach. Unfortunately the shower in the en-suite was stuck on scorching and we had difficulty getting the luggage up four flights of stairs.

Weekend in Southsea
We really enjoyed our stay in this very spacious apartment with great views. The location was good and walking distance to lots of restaurants and cafes. We also booked a trip on the hover craft to the Isle of Wight, which only took 10 mins and was well worth the visit. Communication with Jane was great from booking to check out. Thank you for the bottle of prosecco to celebrate my birthday.

A Brilliant Short Break
What a fabulous apartment! It’s much bigger and grander than the photos make it look, very spacious. It suited our needs perfectly. The location was very convenient to getting out and about along the sea front and we really enjoyed the views from the lounge window. All communication with host Jane was quick and friendly. I wouldn’t haste to recommend this place!

No better location for a stay in Southsea
We all enjoyed our stay very much and the location really was the best bit. Pretty much everything we wanted or needed locally was within a 20 min walk. Gunwharf Quays, both Piers, the hovercraft to the Isle of Wight and lots more. Loved the continuous flow of a variety of boats, ships etc and alway activity on the common to watch over. Highly recommend a hover trip over to Ryde on the IoW for sandy beaches and more. Many thanks Jane, much enjoyed staycation this year :)

Excellent accommodation and location
Stayed for one week with my family 6 adulation and one baby. It is an amazing property with plenty of space and well equipped. We arrived to a bottle of wine and plenty of the essentials, which we were so grateful for having been held up in traffic for hours. The location is perfect for getting around by foot, close to the beach and also the harbour. The owner was so helpful and polite and answered any query immediately. We loved our stay here and would definitely stay here again. The property was above what we expected.

Fabulous,spacious, very clean apartment with to die for views over the Solent.Close to everything you need in a holiday ie shops,bars, beach and restaurants. Plenty of space for us ( with two teenagers) to spread out and be comfortable. Everything was wonderful from the prompt communication, easy check in and the Welcome pack of breakfast supplies, coffee.tea, sugar and milk and a very welcome bottle of wine. Could have done with some fans as the weather was exceptionally hot but all in all it was a great place to stay. Thank you

We were in Southsea for a family wedding. This property was ideal as it was so comfortable and spacious and suited our needs perfectly. The real bonus was the great location and beautiful views across to The Isle of Wight. A special mention and thank you to Jo who met us on arrival.
