Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found Ronita to be clean, with only a few mentioning issues such as cobwebs and a need for a deeper clean in places. Overall, the property is maintained to a good standard of cleanliness.
The location is consistently highlighted as ideal, with easy access to Lyme Regis, beaches, and coastal walks. The added benefit of parking is frequently mentioned as a significant plus.
Comfort receives mixed reviews; some guests find the beds comfortable and the chalet cosy, while others mention the need for better mattresses and more comfortable seating. The property seems to suit some guests well, but not all.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-stocked kitchen and the inclusion of electric heaters. However, there are comments about the need for maintenance, such as fixing a water drip, updating decoration, and ensuring all facilities are in working order.
Guests have mentioned a welcome hamper with treats like biscuits and fudge, which is a thoughtful touch, though it's important to note that such gifts are a pleasant surprise rather than a guaranteed amenity.
About this property
Enjoying a wonderful location literally just moments away from the centre of Lyme Regis and its infamous Cobb Harbour in the heart of Dorset, is this attractive holiday chalet, Ronita. Perfect for families, Ronita is set up ready to go with everything you could possibly need for a fun family holiday. The open-plan living space is light and airy with French doors opening onto a delightful decking area showcasing some stunning sea views and feature wood panelling all helping to create a truly maritime feel to the accommodation. Step into the well-equipped kitchen which is fully fitted with all the facilities needed to rustle up tasty treats for your holiday party with an elegant dining area set up ready to go and the ideal spot for gathering together to enjoy quality holiday time. If it’s one of those beautiful barmy Dorset summer evenings, then why not grab a drink and venture out onto the decking while watching the sun go down? Holidays don’t get much better than that. When bedtime calls, take your pick from either the double or a twin; both are beautifully presented and offer pleasing views. After a refreshing night’s sleep and an invigorating shower, you’re ready to face the day and head out to explore. A short stroll takes you into Lyme Regis with its maze of streets which are home to a good selection of shops and amenities together with its harbour, causeway, beach, museum and aquarium, where you can easily while away a few hours. Lace up your walking boots and head for a hike along the 630 mile South West Coastal Path or for something a little more sedate how about a game of golf with Lyme Regis boasting a golf club and even mini-golf plus popular courses at West Bay and Bridport, Yeovil, Weymouth and Sidmouth. Pack a picnic for a day at the beach where you can go fossil hunting to beaches such as Charmouth, Chesil, West Bay and Seatown. For a memorable family holiday, everything is catered for at Ronita.
The delightful seaside town of Lyme Regis has much to offer its visitors, boasting a maze of narrow streets filled with craft and antique shops, galleries and cafes. Take a stroll along the world-famous Cobb causeway overlooking the ancient harbour, where fishing trips can be enjoyed, or try your hand at fossil hunting in the area. The scenic coastal path offers excellent walking opportunities and spectacular views of the stunning Jurassic coast, whilst the gently shelving sands and sparkling waters of Lyme Bay provide the perfect place in which to relax and unwind. A holiday destination to savour!

We tried for an hour phoning your offices but no answer , I eventually had to drive to the main offices in Lyme Regis and managed to get a repair man to come and release the door . As for a follow up call from the manager never happened and we had to wait for door to be repaired to the bathroom which was a gross inconvenience to us and totally ruined our stay as we was unsure as to how long the repair would so we had to cancel our friend from coming to stay as there was no privacy in the bathroom. So no we will not be recommending you and we will most definitely find another operator.

Although lots of maintenance has been done for this season there is still room for improvement.. As previous guests, including us last year, have mentioned, a sun parasol is desperately needed. Comfortable patio chairs would also be an asset and the metal folding table is seriously rusting. All of this could be replaced at a minimal cost. All round an enjoyable holiday made with perfect weather!

Otherwise everything was spotless and worked very well. This was our second visit and Iâm sure it wonât be our last. We are bowlers and proximity to Lyme Bay Bowls Club was a real bonus. Brenda
