Thumbs up for Sea salt apartment Positive: The Sea salt apartment was beautiful, very well presented to an excellent standard. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent value for money. Negative: Only downside is it can be a little noisy outside.

JudithBooking.comJul 2025

A very enjoyable stay Positive: This is a really nice apartment, tastefully appointed, with a good layout and a comfortable bed. The location is great for exploring Whitby. Lovely cafes and breakfast places very close by on Skinner Street. The Beer O' Clock next door is worth a visit - great little micro-brewery - very relaxing and refreshing if you have been walking part of The Cleveland Way! The apartment is close to the railway station and bus station. Negative: The parking is a problem if you have a car, but that is the case for most of Whitby. Pack light and eat out - there are a lot of steps to carry your bags up and it is not always possible to park close to the place. The apartment is lovely, but it is perhaps a bit too minimally kitted out. OK for a short stay. There is street noise so not great if you are a light sleeper. A blind over the back door would be a nice addition.

A great find for a lovely stay in Whitby! Positive: We loved the location and the apartment was spacious, comfy and very clean. The big windows let in so much light and made it feel quite luxurious and we also loved the outside space. Negative: The check out time of 10am felt very early and considering we could not check in until 4pm (we were offered an early check in at an additional cost but didn’t need it on this occasion) felt a big turnaround time that could have been pushed to 11am at least. It also would have been helpful if dishwasher tablets were included as if they were they weren’t readily locatable and would have helped to keep the apartment clean and get more use of the kitchen.

Great location. Plenty of room. Good views from room. Everything you need in thus apartment. Well priced. Central for all the bars and restaurants literally 2 mins walk away also not far from train station..we parked in the Marina car park which was about a 10 min walk. All good. Thanks for a pleasant stay

HushBooking.comNov 2026

The apartment is comfortable in its furnishing and facilities, with a few flaws that take away from the overall experien Positive: The property is very close to the centre of town, making it very convenient for coming & going as needed. The bathroom facilities are very good, and the bed is very comfortable. Negative: The front door was a bit tricky to lock, and the blinds in the bedroom (even when closed) allowed a lot of light in- making it hard to sleep a lot of the time.

JulieBooking.comOct 2026

Lovely place very smart Positive: Fabulous location beautiful appartment Negative: Matteress was a little lumpy and love the shutters on windows but did not stop street lights shinning through all night

LindsayBooking.comOct 2026

Positive: Had the most amazing stay, apartment was outstanding, we didn't want to leave. Will definitely be back .. Negative: We loved everything

PearsonBooking.comOct 2026

Hidden little treasure! Positive: Fantastic location, beautifully presented property, very modern with a cosy welcoming feel. Very clean very comfortable . Negative: Nothing to not like

DonnaBooking.comOct 2026

Positive: Property comfortable, clean and well equipped. Central location. Negative: Entrance to the property not welcoming, rubbish and dirty on entering from the street through the door way to the entrance of the property. The outside terrace in need of cleaning, full of bird excrement and requires some TLC.

StewartBooking.comOct 2026

Brilliant Positive: The layout and its location Negative: The parking

BBooking.comOct 2026

Positive: Very comfortable clean,modern with every facility we required Negative: Nothing really

kirstieBooking.comSep 2026
DavidBooking.comSep 2026

Had a great stay hopefully be back there again next year Positive: The property was clean spacious in a good location Negative: Can’t really say there’s anything to dislike

ClaireBooking.comSep 2026

Would visit this property again, very convenient location. Positive: Excellent location. Negative: Property was always warm, I think summer months might get too warm.

CraigBooking.comSep 2026

Positive: Great central location, ideal to get around Whitby. It was modern, spacious and well laid out. Negative: It was a bit limited with some of the basics. Only 2 tea spoons and 3 mugs which means that bit more washing up or the dishwasher on for only a few things. It could have done with a deeper clear, some of the surfaces had a layer of dust on them so you could tell it hadn’t been done for a while. These are ‘even better if’ items and I would stop at the apartment again

AlisonBooking.comSep 2026

It felt like a travel lodge rather than a holiday apartment. Positive: Location was good. Apartment finished to a high standard. Negative: Felt unwelcoming, the apartment felt soleless. The facilities appeared stingy ie 2 x teaspoons, 3 x mugs, 5 x dish washer tablets, very poor selection of utensils and pans. The hob was ridiculously hard to work, we had to Google the instructions. Alot of thought has been put into the image of the apartment and not enough thought regarding the guests overall holiday experience.

O’NeilBooking.comSep 2026

Great short break location perfect dog friendly and 9/10 overall Positive: Just a great position and apartment Negative: Nothing

JohnBooking.comSep 2026

Very comfortable and enjoyable stay,also pet friendly which is a huge plus Positive: Cool vibe about the apartment,very clean and spacious and very modern,lots of amenities in very close proximity to the location Negative: No tv in the bedroom,no parking and because of it’s location a little noisy at night,although what would you expect for an apartment fright in the heart of Whitby

CarolBooking.comSep 2026

Paul & Caz Positive: Excellent location. Accommodation was lovely and clean, modern and comfortable. Will be staying again. Negative: Nothing

SophieBooking.comSep 2026
JosephBooking.comAug 2026

Brilliant, great place to stay, very central, clean & tidy but upside down apartment was strange and more importantl Positive: Clean tidy and close to centre of everything!! Negative: It was upside down

CarolynBooking.comAug 2026

Great location, superb facilities, comfortable stay, would definitely book again and recommend Positive: Perfect location, easy to get to everywhere we wanted. Gorgeous property, beautifully decorated and clean, had all we needed. Negative: No parking but could stop and unload then park elsewhere. Bar underneath could be heard but not late. Early deliveries were noisy but we're early risers. Could have done with a fan. Patio set would be better as metal or plastic so we could clean it down after visiting seagulls.

GwenBooking.comAug 2026

Great property lovely and clean excellent location Positive: Fantastic property Negative: Nothing

CarolineBooking.comJul 2026

Nice apartment in central Whitby but poor housekeeping Positive: Comfortable spacious dog friendly apartment with parking close by. No need to move the car all through the stay as lots to do in Whitby. Very central position. Negative: Outdoor seating area dirty and furniture in a poor state. Kitchen and bathroom clean but the place hadn’t been dusted. Minimal crockery and cutlery and no washing up liquid/sponge, good to have dishwasher but don’t want to put it on for two cups.

PlumbBooking.comJul 2026

Brilliant apartment and great location Positive: Very modern and clean Negative: Nothing

VickyBooking.comJul 2026

Beautiful, light and airy destination in the centre of Whitby Positive: Brilliant location, lovely property Negative: Not a criticism just a suggestion, somewhere to put our toiletries, just to keep the room tidy our doggie want a fan of the metal staircase….not a criticism but good for others to know

JaneBooking.comJul 2026

A great place to experience the amazing town of Whitby. Positive: Lovely spacious apartment in the heart of Whitby. It was well appointed and had views of Whitby from the windows at the entry. Negative: It was a bit difficult working out how to open the door to the apartment. Some help would have been useful in the property’s instructions.

DavidBooking.comJul 2026

Positive: Nice location. Modern kitchen and bathroom. Good space. Negative: Should have been cleaner. Crumbs on floor. Cobwebs in places. Not enough glasses. One wine glass. Very stingy on toiletries. Enough for one night only. Customer service replied quickly but in fact did nothing to rectify the situation. For example they said they would replace the glass but didn't do it for our stay. Also didn't send a cleaner. Seemed like platitudes rather than actions. Also they claimed their green credentials but no recycling for guests. Also, no external garbage meant that the bin started to smell after 3-4 days.

WendyBooking.comJul 2026

Negative: Could do with curtains in the bedroom to keep the street lights and early morning light out

HelenBooking.comJul 2026

Really enjoyed my stay, booked again for next year. Think owner needs to take a look at reviews as it’s the same issues Positive: Great location for us, nice modern apartment. Clean Negative: Unfortunately I couldn’t get job to work, I think a welcome pack would have been nice. The entrance needs freshening up swept and table chairs in garden area needs painted or stained. Unfortunately first impressions wasn’t great but inside the apartment was beautiful

CarolBooking.comJul 2026

Caz & Paul, Darwen Positive: Accommodation was excellent, very comfortable. Location was excellent, close to all amenities. Negative: Nothing

TedBooking.comJun 2026

Heerlijk verblijf Positive: Mooi appartement (Sea Salt) op een prima locatie midden in Whitby. Mooi raam met zicht op het stadje. Alles ziet er goed verzorgd uit, prima bed en badkamer. Negative: 2 kleine puntjes: - er is geen kledingkast alleen een rek en daar is slechts 1 kledinghanger voor beschikbaar. - iets meer bestek is prettig (zeker als je de afwasmachine gebruikt).

MillieBooking.comJun 2026

Great stay and good quality accommodation Positive: Excellent location, lovely stay

TabithaBooking.comJun 2026

Perfect for exploring Whitby. Positive: It was central, a little hard to find at first. Very comfortable and excellent beds. Negative: Nothing.

BeverleyBooking.comJun 2026

Wonderful Whitby Positive: Was comfortable and central. Negative: No clothes hangers,all furniture very very dusty . Outside terrace area needs a really good sweep and a wash. Terrace wooden furniture couldn't be used as dirty.A suggestion would be to replace with rattan that can be cleaned.

SusanBooking.comJun 2026

Pleasant and good location. Positive: This was our 3rd stay. We like how central it is to everything. Its a bright apartment with a comfy bed and nice bathroom. Negative: Its starting to feel a little paired down for the price point. No coffee machine/free pods, no little welcome pack. The free things are rather tight tbh ie 2 sachets of sugar and 2 sachets of milk for 3 nights? I realise its self catering but a lot of other places are far more generous. The windows needed a good clean.

ClaireBooking.comJun 2026

Negative: Although the property stated it was dog friendly, it had ( approx 16) external metal stairs with holes which proved to be very difficult for my dog to manage. Her paws and claws getting caught.

WendyBooking.comJun 2026
SuzanneBooking.comMay 2026

4 night chilled stay Positive: What a lovely find the Sea Salt apartment is, it spotlessly clean, right in the middle of Whitby, it's home from home and everything you need. There are stairs to get up to the apartment but we were ok with this and knew before we stayed. Its a great view of the town from the window. Bed was really comfy, plenty of sockets for charging things. Shower was spot on too. Really loved staying here, although we didn't meet the host Charlie the communication was brilliant 👏 and we had no problem with this at all. parking overnight is a 10 min walk from the apartment at £13 for 24 hours. This was West Cliff Carpark. Negative: Nothing to dislike.

EmmaBooking.comMay 2026

A lovely stay in a lovely well kept property. Positive: Central location in Whitby, close to many facilities. Negative: There is no parking (but that can’t be helped), some of the glass bannisters hadn’t been cleaned, but didn’t affect our stay at all! Can be noisy from pubs (again didn’t affect us, we were aware when booking)

CarolBooking.comMay 2026

P&C Positive: Excellent location and accommodation, very comfortable. Negative: Nothing

CharlieBooking.comMay 2026
JosephBooking.comMay 2026

Lovely stay in sea salt apartment everything you needed when inside Positive: The sea salt apartment was nice and clean everything you needed inside Negative: At 79 and my wife 63 there was just to many steps to get to the front door of sea salt apartment

MartinBooking.comMay 2026

Highly recommended, would be my first choice if available. Positive: The location was in the centre of Whitby, very close to where we wanted to be. Parking is an issue, and access was limited. Having said that, the apartment was great, clean, spacious and with good quality fittings, a very comfy bed and lots of hot water. Could do with more cutlery and a larger saucepan, as we like to cook our own food. Negative: The door from the street was awkward because the wind was strong, and it was difficult to keep it open so we could move our bags. There are two short flights of metal stairs to the apartment door, which may be difficult for someone with mobility issues. I managed to find free street parking nearby, but I think I was very lucky. Whitby can get very busy.

scottBooking.comApr 2026

Enjoyable Cosey weekend away in a modern clean & excellent location. Positive: Very clean , modern and all you required for a great weekend away. Negative: Nothing

LoobyBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: Location Negative: Dirty Noisy Not very comfortable

RachaelBooking.comApr 2026

Will stay again Positive: Absolutely lovely clean and comfy good location 😊

ShaniceBooking.comApr 2026

A nice stay Positive: The property was well presented, really nice decor and felt very cosy. Negative: Not enough towels, only one each which isn’t ideal when you need to wash your hair. There was only 5/6 teabags between 2 of us for a two night stay and when asking if anymore could be provided, we were told you only get a starter pack included but there was lots of coffee/sugar. On the entrance to the apartment outside, there was a lot of bird poo which can’t be helped. It was also quite loud with people outside.

CeliaBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: The apartment was in a central location. It was well presented and very clean. Negative: Struggled slightly with the key box.

LenkaBooking.comApr 2026

Positive: The property was super clean and comfortable. It has a perfect location right in the centre close to the Abbey, the train station and the beach. It was quiet and we found everything we needed. The staff were super helpful and kept in touch the whole time providing all necessary information. We would definitely come back!

CarolineBooking.comApr 2026

Lovely apartment, in a great location. Positive: Location great. Modern accommodation Negative: No hangers on the rack

FionaBooking.comMar 2026

Great apartment for visiting Whitby and surrounding areas. Positive: Location was great. It was clean and comfortable and modern. Negative: Minor things like no hangers on the clothes rail. Also only a small j-cloth for kitchen use. The kitchen could have been better equipped.

JennyBooking.comMar 2026

Relaxing stay with modern facilities. We would stay again. Positive: Good location, views were good out of the back door and lounge windows, modern apartment and facilities. Very clean and a comfortable bed! Negative: Nothing.

TanyaBooking.comFeb 2026
SophieBooking.comFeb 2026

Positive: Excellent apartment, very clean and had everything we needed. Perfect location to explore Whitby. Good communication from hosts and easy to check in/out. Would definitely stay again!

MichaelBooking.comFeb 2026

Positive: Very central and nice pubs close by Negative: Nothing of note, couch comfort was to to our taste, but hardly used it anyway.

FayeBooking.comJan 2026

A little gem of a place Positive: Communication from Charlie, the Agent. Cleanliness, location and the bed is so comfortable. Negative: No shelf in the shower for products, & no shelf in the bathroom for products.

CathyBooking.comJan 2026

Sea Salt Apartment Positive: Perfect. Situated right in the centre of Whitby, the apartment is beautifully decorated and furnished and has everything you need. Communication with Charlie and Rhys was excellent, self check in was easy. No negatives whatsoever, I would 100% book this apartment again.

MalcolmBooking.comJan 2026
rebeccaBooking.comJan 2026

Overall, a good stay in a great location, but a few improvements would make it excellent. Positive: The apartments are in a fantastic location—perfect for exploring the town centre and the West Cliff. They’re furnished to a modern standard and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We were disappointed to find hair in the bedding on arrival, and some areas clearly hadn’t been cleaned for a while. It didn’t ruin our stay, but it was a letdown. Negative: The bedroom is quite bright at night due to street lighting, so an eye mask is a good idea. We suggested blackout blinds to the hosts, and noticed other guests have made the same recommendation. We received a lot of emails before our stay, mostly about upgrades and early/late check-out options. Condensing these into one or two emails would be much better. The volume of pre-arrival emails didn’t match the responsiveness when we raised concerns after arrival.

JeffreyBooking.comJan 2026
MathewBooking.comDec 2025

Just a shame we could not stay another night😢 Positive: Superb clean apartment, superb location, cannot fault it in anyway and Charlie was very helpful and quick to respond. Negative: Nothing

BryanBooking.comDec 2025

Had a very enjoyable stay, would definitely return Positive: Very clean, nicely decorated, great location Negative: The street light directly outside bedroom window, could do with blackout blind or curtains

SamanthaBooking.comNov 2025

Great modern apartment Positive: Great central location with a good view. It was spacious, comfortable and well-equipped. Negative: The bed sheet didn't fit the king-sized bed.

KarenBooking.comNov 2025

This accommodation is by far the best place we’ve stayed and we will recommend it to our family and friends. Positive: Perfect location. Beautiful accommodation with everything you need. Negative: Nothing to dislike about the property. Loved our stay and will definitely be back in the new year.

KerryBooking.comNov 2025

Epic and comfortable, deffo recommend and I’d stay again. Positive: It was close to all the pubs we wanted to visit and the parking space we chose. It was a lovely apartment, really clean and easy to navigate round. Negative: Nothing, it was fabulous!!

StephenBooking.comOct 2025
GeraldBooking.comSep 2025

AndrewBooking.comSep 2025
MichaelBooking.comSep 2025

Lovely stay, nothing really to complain about. Positive: Beautiful apartment, good location, nicely furnished. The bed was superb. Negative: Main entry door could be better, it’s not obvious that this is the door to the apartments.

davidBooking.comSep 2025
JamesBooking.comSep 2025

Fantastic place Positive: Fantastic apartment, clean comfortable and cosy yet spacious. Right in the heart of whitby town centre. We would definitely stay again. Very well maintained and very stylish

JerylBooking.comSep 2025

Perfect location, good facilities, clean and comfortable. Positive: Perfect location . App helpful for information and to get in contact with the host. Negative: Not clear about parking but this could be a booking.com problem. We were under the impression that parking was included but had to park nearby. Had to quickly get our luggage etc out of the car then go and find a parking space.

LucyBooking.comSep 2025

Good accommodation and clean. Good for short break Positive: Lovely apartment and very clean and modern Negative: Soft bed and mattress. Outside area not suitable to sit out and misleading from advert. Dirty chair and table and dirty ashtray on table. Not too clean outside. Noisy bar next door which was extremely noisy outside at closing time.

DuncanBooking.comAug 2025

Positive: The location was excellent very central to whitby everthing was in easy walking distance. Really nice modern apartment the pictures don't do it justice

ChristopherBooking.comAug 2025
willisBooking.comAug 2025

FANTASTIC STAY Positive: Excellent location beautiful apartment would 100% stay here again. Park in cliff street car park 2 minute walk. 2 great pubs with live singers on. Negative: Black out blinds would be good as the sun shines through first thing so no late mornings, and the balcony needed a clean but that is being really picky.

TrudyBooking.comAug 2025
georgeBooking.comAug 2025

Enjoyed our stay at this apartment Positive: Central location , clean and comfy inside . Negative: Outside area needs cleaning The bin in the toilet was full of previous tenants waste

JamieBooking.comAug 2025

Perfect stay Positive: Loved the location of the property, the apartment was really beautiful and comfy and clean. Negative: Only issue was the bedroom there needs to be blackout blinds or curtains to block out the street lights as it’s really bright.

NinaBooking.comJul 2025

Great Whitby Accommodation Positive: What a little beauty this apartment is, so glad we found it. It was very clean and comfortable in a brilliant location. Plenty of information about booking in/out which was very straightforward. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and hope we stay again sometime in the future. Negative: Nothing to dislike for us at all but probably not for anyone with mobility problems due to steps/stairs.

kerryBooking.comJul 2025

Beautiful place to stay Positive: The apartment was absolutely beautiful very clean and loved the location a beautiful 2 minute walk to the harbour and beach ⛱️ with some lovely food shops and other nice shops on the way. Whitby has stolen my heart ❤️ Negative: Nothing to not like. I would suggest putting a fan in the apartment has it was very hot 🔥 days .

KayleeBooking.comJul 2025

Lovely private place in a great location Positive: Loved the property, loved the big rooms and private feel, bed was super comfy, fittings were high quality not flimsy stuff you usually get in apartment stays. Central location with private outside area, windows were hefty enough to block out noise when closed so that didn't bother us at all with the seagulls and street noise, but blinds do let a lot of light in. We didn't cook but seemed like there was plenty of cutlery etc. Negative: For a weekend was fine but the sofa is quite small and not really a cosy environment for getting comfy if you want to spend time at the apartment at night. Only one toilet roll and very little coffee/tea sachets. Check in at 4pm is quite late, and early check in fees are too high in my opinion. These are small things though and didn't affect our overall stay

CarolBooking.comJul 2025
MichaelBooking.comJun 2025
RobertBooking.comJun 2025

Positive: Great location lovely n clean Negative: It is a beautiful apartment, just think it would benefit from having black out blinds in the bedroom

Turtle59Booking.comJun 2025

Great choice in Whitby Positive: Lovely standard of refurbishment, great central location. very comfortable. Negative: a bit minimal on loo paper, minimal cost to offset image Otherwise, very nice

CathyBooking.comJun 2025

A lovely apartment! Positive: The apartment was very modern, clean, with a comfortable bed and well equipped. Negative: The centre of Whitby is busy so plan ahead for parking as there's not much parking nearby. If you're a light sleeper or not used to busy areas, take ear plugs with you to help take the edge off it. Don't let this put you off as it's a really nice place, we certainly will be returning!

SteveBooking.comMay 2025

Lovely apartment Positive: Excellent location. Tucked away but close to all the amenities. Well appointed and comfortable. Negative: Sofa and chair could be a little more comfortable. Maybe an additional footstool.. However I'm being really picky here as I like to stretch out watching TV;).

LeanneBooking.comMay 2025

Fabulous stay! Positive: Gorgeous apartment, modern, clean and central location. Definitely return when back in Whitby Negative: Could do with a few hooks for towels.

ClareVrboMay 2025

Weekend away Had a lovely stay, stunning property perfect location excellent communication The apartment has everything that’s needed only suggestion I’d make is maybe curtains in the bedroom as the bedroom was light all night with the lights from the street the blinds just didn’t block much out, but other than perfect would recommend starting here and would use again

TraceyBooking.comApr 2025

Positive: Right in the centre of town, well equipped, everything you need Negative: Street light right outside the bedroom window, so very bright, could do with blackout blinds

DavidBooking.comApr 2025

Sea Salt excellence Positive: Everything Close to centre Loads of shops and amenities close by.Apartment is light and airy very clean all mod cons bed is very comfortable and the bathroom is a good size All in all would recommend Negative: Only drawback we had were the steps
