“Entance and stairwell totally uninviting.”

This did not give a good first impression. Fridge was not cleaned to a required standard especially given the COVID situation is still with us. The same could be said of the utensils. We found it strange that there was only one wine glass .The biggest disappointment however was the noise and disruption coming from the apartment above. We had interrupted sleep every night for a week which did not give us the relaxing stay we were so looking forward to .The noise was unbearable and included late ...

This did not give a good first impression. Fridge was not cleaned to a required standard especially given the COVID situation is still with us. The same could be said of the utensils. We found it strange that there was only one wine glass .The biggest disappointment however was the noise and disruption coming from the apartment above. We had interrupted sleep every night for a week which did not give us the relaxing stay we were so looking forward to .The noise was unbearable and included late night and early morning. Sometimes it was like someone was jogging on the spot!!!!!

“Although the location was absolutely fantastic, the bathroom smelt like stale urine and the bed was uncomfortable.”

Mrs Nichols October 2020

“Thoroughly enjoyed my time at Sailaway.”

Enjoyed being able to eat breakfast and look out to sea. Bathroom facilities were great with a lovely powerful shower.

- Mrs Nichols, October 2020
Mrs Makin August 2020

“Location was excellent.”

Apartment was lovely. Only down side is the main communal stairway and entrance which sadly lets the place down. Unfortunate incident due to rain. Dreams cottages dealt with so professionally and were absolutely brilliant dealing with the situation.

- Mrs Makin, August 2020
Ms Williams August 2020

“The flat was lovely and clean and had good equipment in it.”

A great location for shops, restaurants and the beach of course. Top tip is to book the restaurants a day in advance otherwise you have to take pot luck. I can highly recommend the Marlboro fish and chip shop near to the harbour, excellent food and service. We had a great time in Weymouth, it is quite windy there though so take a long sleeve top to the beach if you want to stay on the beach.

- Ms Williams, August 2020
Mrs Kirwin July 2020

“The only good thing about this property is the fantastic views of the beach.”

It is in need of updating. The bed is so hard and uncomfortable, I slept on the sofa for a week.the wardrobes were antique and smelled horrible did not put my clothes in them, in fact I used nothing in the bedroom.the bathroom was old and a very noisy flush, I had to put my fingers in my ears every time I flushed. The living part had horrible pictures on the walls and was a miss match of furniture, could be so much nicer. The kitchen although it had lots of cupboards did not have a washing machine or a dishwasher. It had dent been cleaned properly, when I moved the rug to place it on the slight step up in the kitchen there was lots of sand under the rug, the table cloths hadn't been changed and was dirty, luckily I found a spare tablecloth in the ugly unit stuck in the living quarters

“The apartment is superb, perfect location and so well equipped.”

Mr Reece April 2019

“A bad smell in the bathroom.”

A noisey resident upstairs setting their alarm from 6.00 am going off every 10 min for an hour. Certainly woke us up every morning.

Mr Richard Cox May 2018

“The flat (second floor) is right on the sea front, just a few doors along from the famous clock, and I loved the view - watching the sun rise over the sea in the mornings in particular.”

If you drive, a parking permit is provided; and if not (like me), it's only two minutes walk from the railway station. The flat itself is smashing - well equipped and with the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in! I'll be going back - stayed April 2018

“Absolutely stunning flat.”

Beautifully decorated and furnished (the photos don't do it justice), and immaculately clean. In a perfect spot for easy and close access to everything Weymouth has to offer. But also quiet at night as bedroom in back. No problems with booking or finding the premises as good and complete access instructions given. Will definitely use again. The parking permit was also useful and saved a huge amount on parking fees - stayed August 2017

The property

Sail Away is a stylish apartment for two, Grade II listed Georgian town house, on Weymouth’s Georgian esplanade.

On the second floor, it is a luxurious apartment with high quality touches such as a wooden four poster bed coupled with arguably the best location in Weymouth - opposite the long and sandy beach. The large sitting room come kitchen has picturesque views of the sea and long sandy beach.

Perfect to enjoy a nice romantic meal whilst admiring the fantastic view.

The property has a spacious master bedroom with a four-poster bed, in keeping with the feel of the Georgian town house.

An early morning stroll along the beach taking in the fresh sea air is the perfect way to start your day.

Continue with a stroll into town, just a few minutes away, and a spot of lunch in one of the many restaurants ranging from harbourside bistros specialising in local fresh fish to traditional fish and chips, perfect eaten on the promenade.

The other end of the town leads you to the beautiful spot of Greenhill and down to Bowleaze coveway.

If you wish to leave your car parked, then on the esplanade you can get on many buses to explore the surrounding areas.

The route will take you to Portland Bill, one bus being an open top which is great to enjoy the scenic tour.

Or, you can go to Dorchester and browse the town there, which offers many high street shops and popular brand restaurants.

Sail Away is perfect to whisk your loved one away for a truly romantic seaside break.
