It's a cool apartment in a good location. lovely view out of the bay window. very clean, well stocked kitchen (pans, utensils etc.) and as pictured. We had a great time and would recommend. Negatives are: The bed - creaky and therefore noisy. Also quite soft which I personally didn't find comfortable. Parking - From reading reviews it was clear that a parking permit (for the road outside) was included with the property. This is no longer the case (I admit it was not advertised in the property description, but was still mentioned in the written guide in the house) and so we had to find other arrangements which was a bit of a pain. Damage deposit - I get it, they want to protect themselves against vandalism or careless guests but essentially you have to pay £20 extra which is a bit gutting. Sure, you can pay £10 but this means being completely at the mercy of the hosting company to keep the entire £150 deposit for even breaking a mug. It just leaves a bad taste really.

Great stay. Easy check in and great location. Place spotlessly clean and even though it was an apartment we didn’t hear a peep from the neighbours.

Apartment is in a great location & generally well maintained. Unfortunately, I had some issues during my stay which marred the stay. The bedroom layout was changed after we had booked, from just a king-size bed to a double bed + a single bed. We were assured prior to going that there was still plenty of space for our baby’s crib. Upon arrival, we found this wasn’t the case and had to move the single bed to make space, leaving little floor space. Also, electrical sockets are still set up for the king-size so now located behind bed and not easily accessible. The listing advised a “scratch card” parking permit. This wasn’t there. We were told this would be sorted immediately but nothing done. Once we had left, we were refunded our parking fees but doesn’t take from the fact we had to sort this while away, also having to return to the car to renew tickets etc. We received no apologies for any issues - almost felt as though they were deliberately avoiding so not admitting fault

Nice clean apartment in a good location. Being a ground floor property next to the entrance meant that it was quite noisy, lots of banging doors and people stomping up and down stairs. The hosting process with Host and Stay was very corporate and efficient, although the insurance registration requirement was initially quite off-putting and felt like some kind of scam.

Just returned from a 5 day stay at the Seaview Retreat. A lovely apartment with a fabulous view, 10 mins walk down to the pier. The apartment is clean and well maintained, check in was easy and so was the parking (please make sure you fill the parking scratch cards out correctly - year, month & (1st day of your stay only) we saw lots of people get tickets cos thwy either missed off the year or month or scratched all the days of there stay, which makes card invalid. It really is a lovely place ans we wouldn't hesitate returning

Parking is definitely a problem. We got two tickets - once for having the letter R of the last letter of the license plate look too much like an P. The second time was for putting the “disc” in the middle of the dashboard. The reason given was that it wasn’t clearly displayed. The suite is lovely though- clean , lots of coffee and tea. We had dinner at Pizza West just a short walk from the suite and was so amazing ! Highly recommend

Fantastic place in a great location, and very clean and comfortable. Only niggles would be the blinds that let in a lot of light, and the (very, very comfortable) bed which makes a loud squeaking noise with every movement.

I stayed with a friend on a long weekend in February, the whole process was seamless from checking in to finding where to park. The apartment is perfectly located in Whitby, easy to walk to everything and has a beautiful sea view to enjoy a coffee in the morning.

I can’t say enough about how great our stay was. The property was so much more than expected. The flat is perfectly positioned close to all the amenities but far enough away to be nice and quiet. Lovely and clean, stylish and had plenty of space. What a view too. Amazing

Accommodation as described. Good location overlooking the sea. Parking is at a premium so the visitors parking pass is extremely useful.

Great flat. Couldn’t ask for more. High quality finish. Great views and well situated. Would stay again. Only think to note is parking zones is a bit confusing so be aware - we got a parking ticket because I parked on the road that the permit wasn’t valid for. All in all a tip-top in a lovely flat in wonderful Whitby. 5*’s from us.

Great stuff at a great location. Clean modern flat with stunning views over the sea at Whitby. Good communication through out and check in east and contactless. Only negatives (both we accepted pre-arrival) -very early check out which isn’t idea and not negotiable. -Price >£200 a night (probably as a result of COVID related increase in staycations) was too high for a small one bed flat in our opinion but guess that was just the climate at the time of our break. Overall enjoyed our stay and if the price was better in future would consider staying again

Seaview Retreat is just as described a lovely retreat with the open spaciousness of the sea right in front you. 2 armchairs sit in the bay window with blinds, so you can sit and watch the world go by until your heart is content. The accommodation has been completed to a very high standard, it is modern, sleek, clean and a pleasure to spend time in. It is very well equipped, enough crockery, pots n pans to make a 3 course meal should you wish, but it is close enough to the town to be able to wander out, have a meal and a wander and then head back when you want a cuppa. Ideal location and a popular coffee hut directly opposite that also sells Ice Cream. What more do you need when in Whitby? Accessibility i.e getting into the accommodation was easy and Stay kept up communication right throughout the process. I would highly recommend SeaView Retreat:)

This is a great place to stay in Whitby. The flat was very nice, clean and modern. The flat was in the perfect location - over the road from the beach, close to the town centre and with sea and sunset views. The hosts were responsive and provided all information needed. Would highly recommend.

This pictures of this apartment don't do it justice! Modern but cosy, with all the amenities you could need and everything is essentially brand new. It's in an ideal location, right on the sea front but walking distance from town. If you drive you may need to hunt a little bit for a parking spot, but free parking is provided. The checking in and out process was smooth and easy and communication around the entire booking was top notch. I'd definitely stay here again.
