Apartment was clean and catered well for our trip. We had a small issue with the bathroom light switch and it was fixed the next day. Excellent service. The host was extremely welcoming and felt like nothing was too much trouble. Really appreciated the milk and drinks on arrival. Fantastic location ten minutes walk to the sea front. Apartment was light and airy and the beds were extremely comfortable. Sofa bed in the lounge was sizeable and all bed linen and towel provided. Nice quiet location away from the main beachfront.

    We have been to Woodgrange previously and somewhat think of it as home from home. It is situated near enough to all local amenities; however far enough away from busy seaside areas. With just a 3-5min drive to seafront arcades etc. Local take away Resturants, grocery shops and supermarket, post office are available with a short walk.

    Fantastic location, right on the beach. The area around the hotel is very nice, several cafes / restaurants for breakfast and dinner, off license shop about 7 min walk. There is also a very nice park with large playground nearby. The beach is not overcrowded (like other areas in Southend), very enjoyable. Our room was on the ground floor but we still could see the sea :) the room has nice furniture, fridge, bathroom has toiletries, everything looks new. Staff very nice and helpful.

    Lovely air conditioned room . Great location on the seafront. Great cooked to order breakfast making breakfast so much better than in chains. Friendly staff who really make you feel like a valued guest. Unlike many seaside traditional hotels, Roslin Beach has clearly benefitted from ongoing investment.

    The owners were very attentive, breakfast was lovely and the rooms really comfortable. I would definitely stay again in future (in fact I have already booked!) I can highly recommend Suenos, and it is right on the beach front with a lovely view.

    As mentioned before, the staff were all great and really friendly and helpful. Breakfast was also lovely. The location is right on the beachfront, by the amusement park so there's plenty to do.
