Guests say
Bay View in Criccieth is highly praised for its tasteful decor, stunning sea views, and prime location. Guests appreciate the comfortable furnishings, including a swivel chair to enjoy the scenery. The property is well-equipped, though some minor suggestions for additional kitchen items and a bath mat were made. A bottle of prosecco was a delightful welcome gesture. Despite some cleanliness oversights and a suggestion for better drying facilities, the apartment's charm and convenience make it a recommended stay.
Most guests found the apartment to be clean, with only a few noting areas that could have been cleaner, such as behind the toilet and a dusty wardrobe. The living room rug was mentioned as needing attention.
The location is consistently lauded for its proximity to the beach, local amenities, and quietness. It's also deemed perfect for exploring the surrounding area and offers easy parking.
Guests report the apartment is cosy and the beds very comfortable. The presence of a TV in each bedroom was a hit with children. However, some found the kitchen small and the twin bedroom light for sleeping.
The property is well-furnished and most needs are met, but guests suggested the addition of a few kitchen items, a washing machine with a dryer, and a bath mat. The issue with the bathroom window privacy was also noted.
The welcome bottle of prosecco was highly appreciated, indicating thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gestures are kind but not guaranteed for every stay.

Minor points, but it would have been nice to have an oven glove and a washing-up bowl - certainly didn't spoil our holiday :D

Plenty of parking outside the flat (in October). The size suits a couple more than 4 people unless the other 2 are kids. Cleanliness was 95% there, just a little more attention needed ( such as the very grubby living room rug which we cleaned. I assume it was dirty as it's used by dogs but it took us 5 mins to transform it and remove most of the large, very visible stains, so it could easily have been a bit more pleasant on our arrival). Great for a stay with our puppy as the garden was pretty secure and very accessible, but the info book stated no pets allowed even though we booked clearly with one dog, which was a little concerning. Bottle of wine on arrival was a nice touch. A little more attention to some details would have helped, such as 2 remote controls with flat batteries on arrival. It's in a nice quiet area. Kitchen was quite well equipped, albeit very small. Sofas and bed were unusually comfortable for a holiday let.
