    “We have stayed in Carbis Sands MANY times!”

    We always enjoy our stay, the standards of comfort and cleanliness are very high and much appreciated. The Sands apartments are ideally situated for exploring west Cornwall. Special thanks to Monika, the housekeeper, who efficiently sorted out several glitches after a power cut and also for a mid stay clean and linen change. My only grouse is how hard it is to speak to someone at Sykes/Carbis bay holidays by phone . I did eventually find a suitable number and the lady sorted my query ...

    Many thanks for your lovely feedback. I’m quite sure the power cut in the area was an annoyance ! I will convey your concerns re the difficulty experienced trying to speak to Sykes/CBH to them. Very pleased you enjoyed your latest stay and look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

About the location

CARBIS BAY

St Ives 2 miles ; Hayle 3.5 miles ; Penzance 8.5 miles.

Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching.
