Very comfortable and homely apartment with everything you need. Great view of Scarborough beach from the living room, balcony and master bedroom. The apartment is located in the building on the eastern side of the complex, so not in the building closest to the beach, but the view is still beautiful and unaffected by the building in front. Secure undercover car park with lift access up to apartment.
We stayed with our two young daughters (3 + 4yrs). The apartment was very suitable and the facilities in observation rise were excellent. Our daughters loved the lagoon pool, but it was a bit cold during our stay so they preferred the heated indoor pool. There is an awesome whale playground just over the road at the beach and rock climbing equipment and skate park close by, all adjacent to the amphitheater.
Observation rise had a nice little gym and there was a lovely Pilates studio (the hundred) offering reformer just over the road. Plenty of path along the beach for running/walking too.
The location was excellent, only a few minutes to walk to the beach and to many restaurants and cafes. Supermarket and pharmacy too. We enjoyed the coffee from Livid cafe.
Only a 20 minute walk to Trigg beach and a little further to mettham pools which is definitely worth it.
Scarborough seems to be a bit of a party zone at night, we could hear a bit of music and party from the main strip in the apartment but we were completely unaffected by this. Our girls slept like logs!
Check in and check out was a breeze, communication by the staff was excellent although I never actually ended up seeing them face to face. They are available face to face Monday to Friday though and you have emergency contacts outside of these times.
I would definitely stay again. Thanks so much.
