Guests say
The Ocean Breeze - Gower View Suite is generally praised for its cleanliness, comfortable furnishings, and the addition of a pool. Its proximity to local amenities and beaches is appreciated, although accessibility may be a concern for some. The property is well-received for providing a pleasant stay, despite some feedback on space constraints and maintenance issues.
Most reviewers find the apartment to be very clean and immaculate, suggesting high standards of cleanliness. One review mentioned a maintenance issue with the shower drain, but this seems to be an isolated incident rather than a reflection of overall cleanliness.
The property is well-situated, with easy access to Rhossili beach and local shops. However, one review notes that the walk to the beach is along a busy road without pavements, which may affect the location score.
The comfort level is mixed among reviewers. While some found the apartment comfortable and spacious enough, one review highlighted that the property felt cramped for four adults and had limited seating and dining arrangements.
Facilities like the outdoor heated pool are praised, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues, such as slow-draining showers and a lack of kitchen equipment. These factors suggest that while the facilities have potential, they require attention.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.
About this property
This stylish apartment is on the spectacular Gower Peninsula, and many of its rooms boast magnificent rural views. Sleeping six guests, the holiday home suits large families and groups of friends looking for a relaxing break in this picturesque corner of Wales. The iconic Rhossili Bay is just 4 miles away, and you’ll also have easy access to the dramatic Wales Coast Path. After a day of outdoor adventure, enjoy a gentle stroll around the shared grounds or a dip in the swimming pool.
The first-floor apartment is reached via a flight of stairs. Inside, the contemporary decor is clean and crisp, and hues of blue in the soft furnishings offer a little nod to the coastal setting. At the heart of the home is a bright lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can spend time sharing delicious feasts around the table or enjoying a movie night on the Smart TV. Alternatively, take yourself off to the cosy snug with your favourite book. The property has three elegant bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room.

The Gower Peninsula is awash with varied walking routes, from remote moorland hikes to tranquil strolls along the beach. For breathtaking views and a chance to experience a slice of history, why not take on the climb to King Arthur’s Stone (4 miles)? The challenging route takes you along the ridge of Cefn Bryn to one of the most impressive Neolithic burial chambers in the country. Gower is home to Wales’s most iconic beaches, including Rhossili Bay and Three Cliffs Bay, both of which are within 10 miles. The family favourites of Port Eynon and Horton are also nearby (2 miles).

Mrs Bell
A well presented modern apartment, that had everything we needed, we were on the first floor with 4 adults 2 teens and a baby and had plenty of room to move around. The swimming pool is basic but met the needs of the children who enjoyed it daily splashing around with floats and water balls. The pool was under cover, this made up for the fact our weather wasn’t brilliant, and the use of the sea was limited. The location is good and is a few minutes drive or 15minute walk (it’s a very busy road with no pavements and in parts narrow) to the beach which has a couple of chip shops a small beach shop and smugglers restaurant. There is a small premier shop a few minutes up the road and further down the main road at the local garage a slightly bigger supermarket. There is Access to the campsite behind where you can use the laundrette, shop and pub/cafe also has a play area for the children. We were greeted who was extremely pleasant and helpful and was there to sort any issues (we didn’t have any). Overall this is great accommodation that is a perfect base for exploring the gower.

Lovely apartment, very clean and nicely furnished. Two TV areas which were welcome with teenage grandchildren. Close to the beach and surrounding beaches of Rhosilli and Oxwich Bay. Nice addition with the pool and garden area, plenty of sun loungers and seating in the garden.

My friends and I stayed at the gower suite over the weekend. We had an AMAZING weekend getaway! The suite was spotless and finished to a high spec as per the pictures. The beds were comfy, the outdoor heated pool was top-notch and the general setup great. The location was perfect, a little walk to the local social hub with a bar / pub / food / band / evening social which was good for us lot in our mid 20s. The suite manager and the owner were exceptional hosts, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Thanks. We will definitely be back and can't recommend this place highly enough to anyone.
