Maritos Reviews

Runbir
The house is a new build & looks fantastic. Kept very clean inside. The house itself has been set up really well, bedrooms upstairs and downstairs, the lounge area doubles up as the kitchen with plenty of light coming through the bifolding doors. The beach is right behind the house. Pathways, dunes & onto the beach which was great for taking the dogs out. The only downside was the rear garden, its just needs maintenance to bring it back to being lush green. I would definitely recommend this place for a vacation, its great for kids & the dogs.
Lovely place to stay but there was an issue with the initial cleanliness of the kitchenliving room and required to do some cleaning when we arrived. After that all was good and we enjoyed our stay right through.
Lovely comfortable property. Plenty of room for 8 people, excellent heating systems, and general utilities are all very good. The only disappointment was being advised 3 days before arrival that the Hot tub was not going to be available. We were refunded 100 but too late for any other solution. Sykes not especially helpful to be honest.
Perfect house for 6 adults 2children 1 puppy Not so keen on village of Talacre ... Perfect house for 6 adults 2children 1 puppy Not so keen on village of Talacre very run down no restaurants and even fish and chip shop closed in the week

Maritos is a fabulous property with regard to the accommodation itself and we have only positive feedback to give on the property itself in layout and comfort as well as the location next to the beach and the hot tub is a bonus to relax in after some lovely walks and trips out along the coast. We would definitely recommenced to others
Hannah
We absolutely loved Maritos. It's a lovely holiday home thats really nicely decorated. A clean modern feel throughout. The kitchen and lounge area with bifold doors into the garden is perfect for us. Fantastic size rooms. Comfortable beds. Lovely clean linen. Really nice touches everywhere like shampoo and conditioner and bodywash in showers. The size of the smart TV in the lounge was fantastic. So nice to be in a holiday home where the owners have made such an effort. We had a couple of things we needed support with and Lorna addressed it immediately. Definitely will return. Fantastic space for adults and kids alike.
A very nice, immaculate property in an ideal, quiet location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I would recommend this holiday cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful holiday near to a nice beach. The property is also nicely located for all local amenities in the village of Talacre.

The house was immaculate, really clean and a great place to stay. Was 7 of us and a dog, had 0 problems, and had a really great stay. Would love to revisit
Another lovely stay at Maritos, property is immaculate and well stocked with all the essentials. Garden and hot tub are great for chilling late afternoon into the evening after visits to the beach. Very quiet area so no disturbances. The owner posted something we'd left behind free of charge which we were very grateful for. This is the second time we've stayed and will definitely return.
We had a lovely family stay at Maritos. The property was exactly like the pictures. It was modern, clean and had everything we needed to have a wonderful family holiday. All the rooms were bright and spacious. It was close to amenities only a short walk to the beach. Two local pubs were warm, friendly and welcoming and it was only a 5 minute walk to get daily papers. The hot tub was well maintained and provided opportunity for even more relaxation. We would highly recommend this property and would definitely go back.
The property was perfect for our family stay. It was clean and well maintained. The instructions were very clear, and the owner helpful. I would highly recommend the accommodation, youll not be disappointed
