Snaptrip says

Driftwood Heights is praised for its exceptional location with stunning views across St Ives harbour and easy access to local amenities. Guests appreciate the well-equipped apartment, highlighting its comfort and the bonus of Netflix on rainy days. The lack of parking is noted, yet not a significant deterrent. The cleanliness and maintenance receive positive remarks, though the presence of birds on the balcony is a minor inconvenience.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The property is described as clean and comfortable, with one guest noting a prompt response to a request for balcony cleaning. No negative comments on cleanliness suggest a high standard is maintained.

The location is consistently lauded for its proximity to beaches, shops, and restaurants, with the views being a standout feature. The only drawback mentioned is the parking situation, which was anticipated by guests.

Guests find the apartment comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and ample storage space. The property provides a warm and relaxing environment, even during inclement weather.

Facilities like WiFi, washer dryer, and Netflix are appreciated. However, the score is slightly lowered due to the mention of birds affecting the use of the balcony, indicating a minor issue with maintenance.

There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

  • Mrs Gibson

    We have stayed at Driftwood Heights for the last two years with 2 children aged 11 & 4. We find the location perfect, due to the close location to the beaches & harbour, but away from the noise of the main streets. The views from main bedroom & lounge are exceptional. We find this accommodation clean & comfortable, there’s lots of storage space & the kitchen is well equipped. The only real downside is the pigeons & seagulls making a constant mess on the balcony - I realise this can’t be helped, but it did mean we couldn't use the balcony as much as we would have liked. Original cottages were great at responding, when I asked this to be cleaned on our arrival. We will definitely book again!

    Fantastic location, with awesome views. Minutes from beaches, shops and restaurants. Washer drier is very useful, and wifi was very good.
