Guests say

Riviera Heights is a well-renovated property in a prime location close to Paignton's centre and beaches, boasting dedicated parking. Guests appreciate its cleanliness, tidy interiors, and the convenience of having a washing machine and dishwasher. The property's loft conversion offers airy rooms, though some guests noted issues with heat and steep access.

The property is consistently described as clean and tidy, with only a few mentions of unpleasant odours in the bathrooms, which seem to have been addressed by maintenance.

The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach, town centre, and local attractions, making it an excellent choice for guests looking to explore Paignton.

Comfort is generally good with comfortable beds mentioned, but some guests experienced issues with heat due to the loft conversion and steep access which could affect those with mobility issues.

Facilities like a dishwasher, washing machine, and parking are appreciated. However, there are several reports of maintenance issues such as a frozen freezer, poor Wi-Fi, and non-functional extractor fans, which lower the score.

There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

About this property

Tucked away in the desirable town of Paignton in Devon, is this beautifully presented, two-bedroom second-floor apartment, Riviera Heights. Enjoying a superb location on a quiet road, just moments away from Paignton’s picturesque harbour and the glorious Goodrington Sands, Riviera Heights makes for a fantastic dwelling for couples or a family of four who are looking to explore this beautiful part of Devon. After approaching the property via a large sweeping driveway, park up in the allocated off-road parking space, before unloading your bags and taking in your tranquil surroundings. Be welcomed into the spacious living/dining room with a Velux window allowing the natural light to flow in, here you can look forward to curling up on the plush three-seater sofa, as you select the evening’s entertainment courtesy of the large Smart TV. The budding chef will delight at the fully-equipped kitchen, where conjuring up delicious feasts has never been easier with the help of the electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, along with a handy dishwasher and washer/dryer for keeping your space tidy. Settle down to savour a flavourful meal with your loved ones at the dining table, as the wine is poured, and plans are made for the days ahead. When your eyes grow heavy, retire to one of two well-appointed rooms, a king-size with TV and en-suite shower room and a twin with zip/link, both of which have plenty of storage for your belongings as well as sea views. Awake from a leisurely slumber and start your day off with a refreshing rinse in the contemporary shower room, followed by a steaming cup of coffee from the machine and your favourite songs on the digital radio. Take advantage of your fabulous location with a wander into the town, where you will discover a plethora of eateries where you can sample the local delights, well-stocked convenience stores and supermarkets for stocking up on essentials and the bustling Paignton Pier which offers an excellent selection of family entertainment, including bowling, fairground rides and crazy golf. From here you can access the glorious sands of Paignton Beach, perfect for beachcombing the shores, soaking up the sun with your favourite book or tucking into fresh fish and chips from the pier as you watch the world go by. Keen walkers will delight at the close proximity of the South West Coast Path, a 630-mile trail which begins at Minehead and ends at Poole Harbour in Dorset and promises some of the most breath-taking scenery in the area. For further attraction options, there is the much-loved Paignton Zoo and the Palace Theatre which frequently hosts live performances. Budding historians will not want to miss out on Totnes, home to an impressive Norman Castle which overlooks the town, the Totnes Images Bank and the South Devon Railway, which offers rides through the scenic valley of the River Dart. For a getaway like no other, choose Riviera Heights.

Paignton, a premier seaside resort in South Devon, is located in the heart of Torbay, midway between Brixham and Torquay. Long sand beaches, a beautiful harbour, and a plethora of shops, pubs, clubs, and restaurants are just a few of the town's attractions. Aside from the famous zoo and aquarium, the town is a great starting point for exploring the English Riviera and its neighbouring attractions. Torquay, a nearby seaside town, is almost as lively, offering a wide range of superb retail options, fascinating attractions, and a plethora of green spaces.
