Poole Quay

1st impressions when we entered the property was that it was bright, warm and spotlessly clean. This property is well thought out to supply every thing you need for a fantastic break. Communications with Sally were spot on.It’s just a short walk to Poole Quay in one direction and Hamworthy beach in the other direction.We will definitely return later this year.

Perfect location to relax

From the moment we walked through the door we began to relax. Sally has thought of everything and more, making this a perfect home from home. Easy walking distance to Hamworthy Beach and Poole harbour makes this a perfect location - whatever type of break you're looking for.

Harbour Lights getaway

Well-appointed and very clean apartment. Loved the Caribbean flavour. The little extras Sally provided made us feel very welcome. We weren't there long enough to use the cookbook, but it made us have Jerk Chicken for dinner after we got home. Would definitely recommend Harbour Lights for your stay in Poole.

Excellent venue

Lovely apartment. Plenty to do in the area, not least visiting Brownsea Island to see the red squirrels. Lots of boat trips and the heritage railway from Corfe Castle to Swanage is well worth a visit. Lots of lovely eateries along the Quay

Good holiday

We enjoyed our stay at Harbour Lights. It was very clean and has the best equipped kitchen I have ever experienced. Sally’s instructions are very clear to follow and we found the property easily. It has a good view and we sat on the balcony a few times. My only down side to our stay is that it has a shower over a very deep bath so I was unable to use it. The apartment and location are great ,just wish the bathroom was more disable friendly. I knew it was a bath from the pictures of the flat but wasn’t expecting it to be so deep and hard to get into. My husband who is not disabled found it a long step out of it I would recommend it to friends as it is a good base to go sightseeing from.

What a gem…

What a gem we found… if you’re looking at this property don’t hesitate to book. Sally is an exceptional host and goes above and beyond to make sure your stay is enjoyable and comfortable. The property is in a lovely location with views from the balcony overlooking the quay and plenty of boat action to admire. Walking distance to the quay. bars, restaurants and shops. Bus stop on the next street for buses to sandbanks and various other places. Bed was comfortable and the apartment was clean. Bottle of wine on arrival and drinks in the fridge. Welcome pack was a good touch. We will definitely be returning. The price is good too. Thank you Sally

Great stay in a great property

We stayed in Harbour Lights for my graduation ceremony in the Lighthouse in Poole. The property is extremely clean, well equipped and comfortable; faultless. Wine and goodies awaited our arrival; communication with Sally was great and we had a restful, stressless time. We would certainly return.

What makes this property unique

Unfortunately, in the UK we don't have the weather like in the Caribbean but hopefully, the apartment will give you a feel of being in the Tropics. Relax and unwind with a cocktail or two.
