Really clean, lovely and warm having stayed end Nov to 7th Dec when storm Darragh arrived. All electrics worked which was a bonus to others we have stayed, really did feel at home. Lots crockery, glassware, cutlery. A clothes airer would have been ideal for number of days rain we had but that will not put us off staying again. We thoroughly enjoyed. No freezer, no problem you work round it, buying fresh is good! It's a fab place to stay and recommend it!

Very clean and in a convenient position.

Bathroom window would not close properly and bathroom basin tap very stiff. I reported these, but surely the cleaning crew should have done this. We were asked if the faults could be dealt with while we stayed but I refused as it would have been time off our holiday.

There was a problem with the key safe, but this was corrected quickly.

All the people I spoke to at the office were helpful and apologetic.

Good location with allocated parking nearby. Nice views from terrace and only a short walk into the town. Traveled to Snowdon (about 40 mins drive) and Portmeirion (2 miles) and went on railway (250 yards). Very clean and tidy. Bathroom on second floor via spiral staircase.



Excellent stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Porthmadog. The apartment was excellent, located in a private cul-de-sac so we didn’t notice any cars or people coming and going other than the few people staying on the site. The apartment had great facilities which we weren’t aware of - for example the sofa is also a pull out bed, the kitchen was very well stocked with every utensil you would need (we brought scissors and a sharp knife with us as you don’t always get these in rentals but there was a big selection of tools). Nice touches were: Welsh cakes on arrival, dish cloths and soap in kitchen, heated towel rail, lots of board games and (up to date) activity leaflets. As a base to explore the area it was perfect and also had some nice walking routes straight from the door. I was worried that the train station would be noisy but didn’t hear it at all. Balcony was bigger than it looked in the photos, you can easily get 4 people eating on there and has pull out table and chairs for 2 more. Overall very peaceful, comfortable and well presented apartment.



Hopefully be back soon

Clean, close to everything. The weather makes it -which was great for our last two days but not so much the first two.
Steam train trip was lovely, sunny day in Portmeirion well worth it.
My son did some very successful crabbing just outside the apartment.
We really home to come back again.



Very comfortable with a touch of luxury

We've stayed on this beautiful site many times before but this apartment was by far the most comfortable.
It has a lovely view of the harbour and there is ample room on the balcony's modern seating to sit watching the wildlife.
Apartment has all you need but the bathroom with its underfloor heating and very modern 'rain' shower was very pleasurable.
Apartment is very modern, clean and the beds are very comfortable. The area is so quiet and tranquil, it was a very relaxing break.

We had an amazing stay at Dros y Dwr, the apartment was great, it was spotlessly clean, decorated to a high standard, very comformatable and had everything that we needed for our 8 night stay. The view from the living area and balcony is second to none, the location is perfect for walking in to porthmadog which has cafes, restaurants and shops. You can walk further to lots of other lovely spots, or drive out to all the great things close by. Absolutely loved our stay and will be back!!

We enjoyed our stay at Dros y Dwr Porthmadog. The situation was lovely. The apartment suited our needs, although more information on the heating would have been useful. However it was beautifully kept and I can imagine in the summer the balcony would be a great asset.



You know you have had a good holiday when you don't want to leave.

Wow, wow and wow. To start the location is perfect. Look out o the patio window and you have beautiful views of the harbour, look out you front window and you have beautiful views of the mountains. You are situated a stone's throw from the main town with everything you may need. Tesco, go outdoors, numerous cafes, coffee shops, general stores, paper shops ect.

If you wanted to you could leave the car and not have to drive anywhere for a week.

The house itself was perfect. Everything was spotlessly clean. Very tidy. Not too cluttered but at the same time had everything you could possibly need. Where we stayed had WiFi (which the kids too full advantage off), TV with access to Freeview channels and apps. We had a washing machine, microwave , oven and all the cooking utensils you could ever need.The beds were comfy and clean.

Outside the living room, through the patio was a reasonable size balcony with comfy outdoor furniture. I literally lost hours if not days just sitting here enjoying the view watching the world go by.

Honestly, off the top of my head I can't think of something that was missing from the property. It has everything needed for a stay here.

The question of would we go back is actually WHEN we will go back. A property that is so close to the main town yet because it is a private estate is very quiet and tranquil .

As for the price. What we paid for a week was very reasonable considering what people are paying for caravans with no amenities. What we paid for this house a night was not much more than what you pay for a room at the premier Inn not far away so we were more than happy.

Lovely place in an ideal location with great views from the property and the estate. Excellent condition, very clean and tidy, thanks to the cleaning staff, with lots of amenities. Plenty of places to go within walking distance, including restaurants, cafes and bars. The many other attractions of north Wales are only short drive away. A really enjoyable stay.

Quiet, well equipped apartment with fine views of the Porthmadog harbour.
Regrettably the apartment hadn't been serviced on our arrival after 4.00pm. But after contacting STS this was rectified.

Very enjoyable, the STS staff were very helpful and timely when sorting out minor problems (the kettle broke which tripped some fuses) The accommodation was bang up to date, with lots of equipment. A bit expensive but it was in July

Lovely view, location and well equipped apartment. Just a bit disappointed we had to clean the shower trap out and long hairs on the throw on the sofa. We would come back as overall we had a lovely stay.

The property was very clean and everything we needed for a very pleasant stay. The only thing was it states it has a balcony but upon arrival and reading the instructions it states that the balcony is going to be repaired and you use the balcony at your own risk which should be stated in the descriptions before you book. Upon inspecting the balcony there were raised nails which could have injured someone. I would recommend this property but only when the work has been carried out.

This apartment was certainly the best we have stayed in on the estate, and we have tried a few. It scores a ten on design and comfort, and the owners have done their best to think of everything you might need. It’s hard to beat the view of the harbour from the balcony. What’s not to like?
