What our customers say about their holidays

  The house was absolutely beautiful inside , very stylish , very clean couldn’t fault it inside except for the tin cups and plates and bowls that are more for camping and not for a stylish home .

  Reading the reviews people did comment on the bar that was by the house . Thought we would give it a go as the summer season wasn’t in full swing and we were staying Monday to Friday morning. What a big mistake !!!!! Monday and Tuesday were ok not too noisy as only a few people sitting outside . So here comes to Wednesday night from 11pm -1.30 in the morning a live rock band were playing and it felt like they were in the room with me I tried everything to block out the noise , ear phones , television up load , nothing helped !! Was so upset and stressed with the loudness of the music I couldn’t sleep till 3pm and I needed to be up at 8 as it was on a working holiday with a group of adults with autism and learning difficulties , thanks be I had put them in the back bedrooms but their still heard the music . So Thursday spent the day in much of a daze from lack of sleep So here comes Thursday night our last night , our group had a lovely meal out ,returned to house , packed our bags , as were leaving early in the morning . Got into bed around 10 , sound wasn’t bad from the few people outside in the bar . Just started to fall asleep and guess what another live band started to play at 11 this time they stopped at 1pm Unbelievable !!!! It’s felt yet again that they were playing in my room , put whole house woke up !!!!!! So not another fun night The people who own this house should advertise it only as a party house , if you are up to party and probably want to be in the bar till it closes and then just walk next door to your holiday home it’s perfect for you. Or if you are stone deaf it’s perfect . No way would i recommend that anyone else , families etc stay there !!!! I came home as well as my colleagues and service users feeling shattered , not a great home holiday when you can’t sleep for nights in a row

  The High Tide Property is an amazing property.

  The house is beautiful, lovely and modern with all facilities you would expect. But please take note of reviews before you book. Whilst it was a wonderful house (very modern, very clean), the nightclub two doors away is not a typical nightclub. When reading reviews (when I booked last year) there was only one that said there is a club two doors away (there is now one more). This is not actually strictly true. A nightclub in our experience closes at 2am ish and is usually within closed doors - so a little boom from music is expected. This we could have coped with. This place, however, is actually open until 5.30am and all customers are able to sit outside for the duration of the opening time - mostly screaming/shouting/swearing and fighting on friday night. We could not have been more surprised at the noise coming through the non double glazed windows - the people could actually have been sitting in the bedroom. As a consequence, one member of the party had to actually sleep on the bathroom floor with the door shut to get any type of sleep. The people at the rear of the property also had noise from people coming from another club. A family might find it challenging, or they might not - but just want people to be aware. Just wish I had known before I booked last year. :-(

  Really nice house in a fantastic location.

  The views of the beach and sea from the front of the house are lovely. All the bedrooms are really good sizes and the two front ones are really exceptional. Beds were very comfortable. It was mostly very clean but unfortunately we had to mark it down as some of the bins in the bedrooms/bathrooms still had rubbish in them from the previous occupants. I know that the bins should be emptied by the previous occupants at the end of their stay but the cleaners do need to check this has been done as it shouldn't have been left to us to do. This is particularly poor considering the current covid situation. Also need to clean behind the blinds in some of the bedrooms. Everywhere else was really clean. There are lots of restaurants just a short walk away. Do need a bit of luck to get a parking space out the front with the permit and need to be careful as the spaces directly opposite the house are disabled parking only during the day(10am to 5pm). We did see a warden giving tickets. As everything was shutting at 10pm there was no issue with noise from bars and restaurants. Hive heating control on the ground floor kept saying no signal but we managed to sort this out and get this going. One on the first floor was fine. I would definitely be happy to stay here again.

  The property was easy to find and the instructions to enter were easy to follow.

  The door has no deadlock key which would be beneficial, the area seemed very safe and quiet but it would be good to have just for peace of mind. The property itself had everything we needed tea and coffee were provided and washing up items. The towels were lovely big and fluffy. The house was clean throughout. A lamp would be nice in the front room. There were 8 of us and as it is a terrace it was a squeeze sitting down in the front room, but as we had teens they didn't stay long. The dining room fitted us all in fine. We were a little concerned about the parking but this was not an issue at all there is a car park very close by and the long stay is less than 5 minutes away the app to use it is very simple too. The house is very central to everything in Weymouth only a few minutes walk to the beach and all the activities. Its in a great location and being on a non vehicular street is quite quiet (seagulls excluded). All in all a great comfortable stay.

  High Tide is in a fantastic location, across the road from the beach and close to the shops especially M&S.

  The down side to the location is that it is two doors along from a very noisy bar, with lots of outdoor seating which stays open late until the early hours (2/3am). The noise is loudest in the bedrooms facing the beach but there was also noise from the back road that could be heard from the two twin bedrooms. Take good earplugs if you want a chance of getting some sleep. The household equipment was of a high quality (Dualit toaster and kettle) but there was no teapot and no means of making a decent cup of coffee (we bought our own from Range nearby). All the rooms are very comfortable and well equipped, the children loved the games table. The bedrooms were mostly of a good size and well equipped except for the top twin room, a lot smaller and sloping ceiling. Overall we had a great time despite our sleep being disturbed (less so for the children who were in the rear facing twin rooms).
