"Everything in the flat was fine; we found that it was fully equipped to a very high standard. This is the first time we have stayed in a self catering apartment for many years, we visited the Beach Restaurant very good food with friendly helpful staff, Becks fish & chips are absolutely first class."
W. Litt"The Point apartment was very impressive and everything was top quality....... I can honestly say that the beds were the most comfortable we have ever slept in!!. We would definitely recommend the Seafood Cafe for evening meals and also the Balcony Bar for people watching."
A. Barker"Everything was just fine in The Point - very adaptable around arrival time/ arrangements and the place was great."
R. French"Just a message to say how much we enjoyed our short break at The Point. It was a last minute booking, we were absolutely thrilled with the apartment. It was the best apartment we have ever rented. Everything you wanted or needed was there. The standard of furniture, fittings, kitchen appliances and extras, bed linen and towels was superb. It is in a fabulous position with side views of the sea from the balcony and secure, private car parking outside the apartment. It was a 10 mins walk to our favourite pub and the shops in St Ives. The Sloop Inn did a great offer of a steak, dessert and bottle of wine for two. There are walks all around the immediate area. One walk we have done in the past being the cliff walk from St Ives to Zennor. It is rather a long walk but there is a homely pub to welcome you - and a bus to take you back to St Ives in high season. Thanks for a fabulous holiday"
M. JeansOur stay at The Point exceeded all expectations. The flat was spotless, warm, and welcoming. The beds were the most comfortable I have ever slept in and was seriously considering taking one home with me! The apartment was decked out in comfortable and fashionable furniture that was a pleasure to relax in. The flat had nice views of the ocean and was situated in an excellent location which was a pleasant walk into town. The apartment was located in a quiet area which was very peaceful at night and indeed at all times of the day. We were met by a Carbis Bay representative literally within minutes of arriving and letting them know we were at the apartment who showed us through the apartment and gave us the key. They were friendly and informative. We had a great time visitng the Eden Project and had it been warmer weather (and not raining) we would have gone on more walks and done more exploring. We had an awesome meal at Cafe Coast which had stunnig views overlooking St.Ives harbour. We had a truly wonderful time in Cornwall and would love to come back in summer when its a little bit warmer! We would not bother looking anywhere else than Carbis Bay Holidays because we could not fault them at all! Thanks again and see you soon!
