The Sands Apartments White Sails

Lounge Area

The large open plan living area has wonderful views across the bay towards St Ives but the owners have also provided for those of us who need access to more modern entertainments with 32" flatscreen TV, DVD player, Xbox 360 with Kinect, free wireless broadband, remote control mood lighting and a Bose Ipod dock. There are two colour co-ordinated settees one of which may be used as a sofa-bed for additional guests. But, on a summer evening it's difficult to beat a relaxing hour before dinner spent watching the ever changing colours of the sea and sky from the balcony whilst looking out across the bay with a chilled glass of wine as the day draws to a close.

Dining Area
The dining area of White Sails is part of the open plan living accommodation and is adjacent to the kitchen. A large glass dining table and 4 chairs are provided for guests, from here you can still enjoy the views across St Ives Bay and together with the fitted mood lighting, a relaxing ambience can be created. Carbis Bay and St Ives are now widely renowned for their choice of fine dining and family restaurants, you will be tempted to try many of these but perhaps the dining room of White Sails will offer an alternative. Our Visitor Book and Welcome Manual will contain a number of recommendations for dining out or takeaway meals, please feel free to add your experiences.

The kitchen has contemporary high quality German kitchen units with soft close drawers and doors. Appliances are by NEFF and include multi purpose main oven, grill, combined microwave and top oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, gas hob with wok ring, extractor hood, grey stone floor, concealed up-lighting and other wall lighting. The layout of the open plan living area makes it easy for chef to chat to guests whilst cooking. And there are two white bar high chairs provided for those who like to "perch" nearer the action!
