Sunnydene Reviews

Christine
A lovely comfortable and well equipped property x close to all local amenities x
Sharon
Another fantastic week here. The weather was great, the property is as great as it was last year when we came and booked already for 2025. There is everything you will need to either eat in which we did or enjoy the facilities & then eat out. The off road parking is a fab addition. Enjoyed the hum of the trains that trundle past but we love this. Can't recomment this place enough.
Georgina
Absolutely fabulous property, very well stocked with everything and very comfortable, would definitely recommend
Lynne-denise
An amazing property with all the amenities that make it home. Clean and comfortable and the hot tub just makes it a little more relaxing. Easy Walking distance to the beach and pier. Some lovely pubs and eating places again an easy walk away.
Andrew
Had a lovely stay at sunnydene close to sea front and shops would definitely stay here again if we came to Paignton.
Vaughan
Fantastic property very high tech everything you need for a great holiday. The off street parking was an added bonus.We loved the hot tub.The property Very close to all the amenities all within walking distance.
Pauline
A lovely place to stay with everything you need to have a relaxing break. Only a short distance to the beach and Pier. Also you can cut through the local park to the shops. We didn't find a teapot to make up a flask so that might be useful in future. We loved hearing the hum of the trains going past and woul quite happily stay here again. Thank you!
We had a lovely stay at Sunnydene. Absolutely perfect location, just a short and flat 5 minute walk to the beach and pier. Amazing that we had a private parking space especially as we took our baby so it was lovely to have an enclosed garden and to be all on one level. Felt very safe and easy to navigate to all local areas. Hot tub was not working sadly, but the host had attempted maintenance and the communication from Sykes was great. Very modern apartment, comfortable furniture and lovely shower. We cant wait to come back!
Very good location handy for town and seafront enjoyed it here for second time. Many thanks.
The only thing I would change is the seating when watching TV as the is only enough space for 3 adults when the accommodation is for 4 adults otherwise extremely nice and would go back again. Thank you to the owners
Very well appointed and equipped. Good location for seafront, train, buses, local supermarket, town. Parking onsite. It was great for us.
The accommodation was very comfortable and modern. Directions wrre very clear. Parking was great and directly outside so there was easy access. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, as was the reclining sofa. Paignton pier is only a 5 minute walk away, which was ideal for a nice stroll along the seafront. The kitchen is absolutely gorgous, but the island dominates the Tvseating area so you have to monuveove around it. The sofa it would've been better had it been an Lshape to fit more people on when its let out to more than 2 people. It was good for us though and we enjoyed our stay. Just a couple of negatives... We were surprised by the lack of cleanliness in the bathroom. There were hairs on the shower floor and on the toilet seat, plus dirt around the edge on the floor outside of the shower. I shouldn't have had to clean it before using. Plus, the hot tub had a scum ring around the edge before we had even used it! The hot tub is over looked by next doors upstairs windows and houses across the road, so I felt a bit on show. An oven glove in the kitchen would be handy for those like myself who like to cook most days. Apart from that we enjoyed our 7 nights and had a peaceful & enjoyable time.
We had a wonderful time 5 minute walk to the sea front 15 minutes to the shops ... We had a wonderful time 5 minute walk to the sea front 15 minutes to the shops with parking very comfy with a hot tub really enjoyed it would definitely recommend for a couple
Stayed here same week last year everything was very good. .unfortunately this year apartment wasn't as we expected regarding cleanliness. there were areas which was dusty the microwave and cooker front were full of handmarks not cleaned .the bathroom floor and lower levels were dirty. Therefore we were not totally satisfied with the accommodation
You have a lovely apartment, very clean and well equipped. The hot tub was a bonus after exploring Devon, plus the robes were a nice touch. The apartment is in a quiet road close to the beach and amenities. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.
Everything was wonderful quality of everything and even sky x box
Sharon
Great property and great location. There was everything we wanted or needed of the property and a hot tub too and robes to wear when you got out. Bonus of the off road parking but if you had two cars, parking would not be an issue in the road either.

Lorraine
Great place. Location 5 minutes from beach, shops and pier. Convenient for train to other resorts. Apartment was clean and very well equipped. Hot tub was great and sky tv welcomed on rainy days. Parking space was a bonus. Could have done with extra information on arrival as there are 3 properties on the road with No.1 on the gate and didnt immediately see it. Overall great place to stay, Excellent!
We had a lovely comfortable stay. Everything we needed there and more to make our stay feel like a home from home. Extremely close to the beach and local shops which was great with a 5 year old. Also very close to neighbouring beaches for watersports. We had a fab stay and would definitely come back. Thank you. Emma Derek Tyler amd Rhys x
Fantastic little apartment close to beach facilities great really enjoyed our holiday would definitely stay again couldn't fault anything. ...
Douglas
Fantastic accommodation. Very well served with everything required for a stay. Love the state of the art kitchen with island. Only complaint please fix the loose toilet seat. Hot tub despite small was very adequate. Outside decor could do with a lick of paint. Will be returning next year.
Great property in a lovely location beach only a 5 min walk away. Hot tub was a lelovely added bonus would definitely recommend staying here.
We loved the property. Such a great location and everything finished to such a high standard. Had everything we needed and was very comfortable
We absolutely loved our stay here. Couldnt fault it. The apartment was perfect, clean. Great location and had everything we needed. Hot tub was a wonderful bonus. We have already recommended to family and friends.
A lovely apartment very modern and clean in a nice location hope some time to visit again. Many thanks.
Hayley
Absolutely love it! Second time here and wont be the last! Beautiful home from home! All mod cons! Just stunning!
Beautifully kept and wonderful utilities that are easy to use.
Lovely little place with all the modcons , comfortable and modern with everything you need for an enjoyable stay , me and my girlfriend just stayed a week and wanted to stay another week we loved it so much and so close to everything, 5 min walk to sea front nice little hot tub etc , comfortable beds , lovely shower , great induction hob and airfryer . We loved it and had the best time even the rain didnt spoil it for us . We hope to be back one day . All the best James and Laura x
Very impressed with standards of the property throughout every thing that was needed just a shame can't find any availability for the same period this year . Would have loved to re book this property for this year
Rachael
Beautiful apartment and home from home. Very Clean. Enough room for the 3 of us. 4 would be a push in the TV area. Beds were comfy. The dressing gowns provided was lovely. The gadgets were amazing. Sofa was so comfy. Location was great. About 7 min flat walk to the main part. Parking space was a godsend. Trains are close by although didn't wake us or bother us at all. Hot tub was a nice touch and enjoyed. Shower is amazing. Well decorated and everything you need for the week the sky box and large tv was a big bonus. All round nice apartment. We have already recommended it to others would are looking to book for 2023 and we would like to stay here again if we can. Thanks for a lovely stay! Things that could do with improvement Toilet seat needs attention as moves slightly. We couldn't work out how to switch heating down. Was a touch warm at times. could benefit from an ashtray outside. Personal preference though!
Hayley
Absolutely stunning little apartment! The owners have thought of everything to make this a home from home! Clean, modern and very comfortable and location could not have been better! Everything is within walking distance, so no need to use the car!
Absolutely beautiful modern property with no expense spared I cannot recommend ... Absolutely beautiful modern property with no expense spared I cannot recommend it enough also with a parking space and a hot tub too what more do you need
Lovely place in good location, close to beach and amenities, good bus links to neighbouring towns such as Torquay and Brixham, if you don't want to use your car. Also the steam train and river cruise is a good day out.The apartment is modern, clean, beds very comfortable, off street parking a bonus, so is the hot tub, enjoyed our stay very much, the weather was great, would definitely go back again.
A lovely place to stay with a high quality finish throughout. Ideally located in a quiet area near to the seafront and not too far from the main shopping area. Some people have mentioned the fact that there is a train line close behind the property and while we did hear them, they weren't that loud and never bothered us. Very comfortable beds with a TV in both bedrooms and plenty of wardrobedrawer space, a nice shower room with an extra large shower which is powerful with plenty of hot water, a quality kitchen with high end appliances, and a comfortable lounge area. We think perhaps the extra large kitchen maybe should have been a bit smaller to allow a slightly larger TV area but as there were only two of us staying this was never a problem. A strong WiFi signal and the inclusion of Sky TV plus Netflix is a real bonus! Also an Xbox which can be used as a dvd player. Good off street parking to the front of the property. The hot tub, which we didn't use, seems to be a bit of an afterthought and is squeezed into a small corner next to the property and tight against the boundary wall. Personally we felt that it didn't add anything to the property and it may have been better to not be there therefore allowing the pricing to be lowered a touch. That said, judging by the visitors book, other people had used it so probably just our personal view on it. Overall a very nice place to stay and we would definitely consider it if we come back to Paignton again.

On arrival we were very impressed with the accommodation and very pleased with the facilities available. We had a great holiday and the outside space made evenings very pleasant. All was very modern and everything you could wish for was there, including the seafront just a short walk. Parking space was a bonus.

A beautiful, modern property with everything you could possibly need. Stylish and very clean! It is so well located with only a few minutes walk to the beach or many barsrestaurants. It has a lovely hot tub that my family regularly used!
He apartment was high end with all the mid cons and gadgets. The beds were very comfortable. However being woken up every morning by the trains was not the best. We feel the listing should advise there is a fully working train line directly next to the property., There were very little instructions for the gadgets and oven, hob, microwave and washing machine, we feel there could have been more details on how to operate these. When we arrived we could tell the apartment had been cleaned however there were clumps of fluff and dusts on the floors in the bedrooms and bathroom.,also there were sweet wrappers on the floor at the side of the bed. Were were not given any fresh bedding for our second week, We tried the hot tub however it was set on 42 degrees it was far too hot being as the outdoor temperature was miss 20s, it made us feel sick when we asked the owners about this they said they were aware of it but did not do anything to rectify this. We even asked the person who came to check it each day he said they are aware of it., We were told that rubbish day was a Friday, we never got our dustbin emptied on the Friday. We could see there were recycling outside other properties but we were not told we had any. Overall we had a good holiday and the apartment was very nice, its close to the beach and the town centre. We feel that we overpaid for the property for the 2 weeks due to the above. Having all mod cons is one thing but the rest of the things need addressing before that price can be justified. I also let the owners know all of the above.,
Sunny Dene was really well appointed with every thing you could possibly need for a relaxing break, the parking space and hot tub were a lovely bonus, highly recommended.
