Indigo

Lovely stay.

Thank you for the gift package. Luxury bed linen.

We had a lovely stay at Indigo, was great to have a car park space and it was a good location (albeit a little steep walk up the hills!

). The rooms were a good size and the kitchen had everything you needed (apart from only two cereal bowls). We were disappointed/surprised that they didn’t provide any soap which is very unusual these days and they provided us with 1 pint of milk. For the price, I was expecting a small hamper, especially after reading a recent review about a hamper left for the family. There weren’t any storage drawers in the second bedroom so didn’t have anywhere to put things. But all in all we enjoyed our stay.

Had a wonderful stay.

The apartment was spotless and plenty of room to do our own thing. The balcony was brilliant for sunny breakfasts overlooking the sea. The welcome pack was a nice touch, and there’s a large Tesco a couple of minutes drive away so no bother to grab the holiday shop. Just a couple of things to mention:1) it’s obvious but not stated, there are steep hills and / or steps to the beaches, 2) the local info pack could do with refreshing (although everything can be found online of course) 3) would be nice to have some handwash in the bathroom or kitchen on arrival. Overall we had a fab time and would definitely recommend.

Recently stayed at Indigo.

The accommodation was superb. Ideal location, only a short walk into St Ives town centre, and to Porthminster beach, literally a few minutes. The apartment was comfortable, clean, large balcony, kitchen well stocked. Easy access to the internet, Sky sports and movies. I definitely recommend it as a great place to stay in St Ives.

this was our second visit to Indigo and it was as well maintained clean and inviting as ever.

we had a small issue with TV but it was quickly resolved although we did have trouble accessing programming we wanted but likely to be due to our unfamiliarity with Sky. this did not destract from our enjoyment at all and we hope to return next year.the view of the sea, the proximity to St. Ives plus easy parking and access all added to our enjoyment.

Apart from having no internet for the two weeks which was no problem has I had the data to cover the two weeks.

The location was good for all amenities in ST Ives and the surrounding area.I think the apartment could do with a clock.Yes I would book again.

Fantastic property!

Just a shame about the narrow car park especially when you have a large car one side and a van the other. But not a problem that can be solved!

The apartment had everything we needed for our stay.

It was clean and well maintained.

This was a very comfortable and clean holiday accomodation.

The facilities were of decent quality and the coffee maker was a nice touch.

Very clean apartment with views of the sea over the carpark.

Great level access from the parking space into spacious rooms. The ensuite was a tad small but the main bathroom great. We found the sofa and king size bed far too low for our older hips and backs but the twin room very comfortable. An oven glove would be handy and a bath mat in the bath. There were plenty of mugs but not enough plates to last between the dishwasher use if you wanted to fill it up each cycle and only 2 dishwasher tablets given. The automatic key fob needs a new battery. Fab television when the luddite in me worked out how to use it. Overall though had a lovely holiday and it was a treat to sit out on the balcony this time of year. Thank you

Lovely apartment everything you need good welcome pack only two slight niggles wi-fi went down on the wed and could not adjust the shower tap

Shower in bathroom needed fixing and a cupboard to store food would be helpful, but the apartment was beautiful, clean and comfortable with lovely views over the bay.

Probably going to book zgain next year . Thank you for making our holiday really enjoyable.

A great place to stay with parking and easy access on foot to all St Ives has to offer.

Due to the location of the property, there is no need to drive right into the centre, which is ideal. Photos and description are accurate. We would love to stay again.

Great place to stay.

Well equipped apartment. Very clean. We stayed in this apartment a few years ago and it was not very clean and not very well equipped in the kitchen. What a change. Well done! Will definitely visit again.

Arrived 4pm.

.ish, and all looked good... however had a real problem with the TV Skybox setup and arriving on Sunday afternoon it left us with no support via Sykes other than leaving a voice message via its 01244 numder service... which a lovely young lady answered sometime later... Help arrived Monday via the Carbis Bay team after we'd effected a tempory repair... as coaxial cables had been pulled from twin screw-in plug sockets. The apartment was lovely, comfortable and clean apart from the Oven which smoked terribly when first switched-on...Wednesday, residue of cleanning agent apparently and smelt awful... had to open all the windows to clear smell and worried we'd setoff the fire alarm. We enjoyed our stay but issues shouldn't have happened for the customer to discover. Best Regards John

Perfect location for a family holiday, close to the town and Portminster beach.

Excellent facilities within the apartment. The only thing that lets it down a little is the outside furniture, very basic and uncomfortable. Overall though it was a really lovely place to stay and we would return. Thank you.

Very good location in excellent flat with parking close to centre of St Ives

Absolutely loved our stay at Indigo - mainly for its proximity to St Ives and the most spectacular view from the balcony.

Have marked it down on cleanliness and comfort due to the following issues: Balcony tables are very rusty and need replacing. The balcony chairs are uncomfortable basic plastic chairs with only two seat pads provided for four chairs. The sink plug mechanism in the en-suite bathroom is not working properly so the sink does not retain water. There was a stain on the mattress cover of one of the beds in the twin bedroom. If these things were addressed, it would be perfect.

We had a lovely time at this property, the balcony and view were was fantastic but the table and chairs need updating they looked old and worn.

We couldn’t use the bar stools as no were for your knees. The bed was to low to the floor and needed a much thicker mattress as to me this to one-off the most important parts of your Holliday, the on-site bathroom isa little to small couldn’t bend down in the shower unit , main barroom great plenty room but do think both shower units need grip handles. For us the couch was also too low as we are the older generation , these are only little things that can be fixed overall it was lovely in a good position and parking was perfect with no steps to the front door. You do though have to be able to walk up very steep paths and steps to go into town or beach we just managed it and we are in our 70s.

Always a happy holiday in a Gallinas Point apartment

Very nice property in good location.

As mentioned by others the 9am check out and 4pm check in effectively means 6 days not 7 and even with Covid is excessive as the cleaners appeared at 9am on the dot so wouldn’t be cleaning till 5.

Our second stay in Indigo and we love it.

Our main gripe is check out at 9am when you don’t let in until 5!! And you don’t allow the use of the Car parking space after 9 either!! I know it’s a pandemic but think 9am too early to check out and you should at least let your guests leave their car until day 11am do they can go for breakfast before the long journey home. I did text the number in the book to request the use of the carpark too but I didn’t get a reply. Thanks

The apartment was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and with a high standard of fixtures and furniture.

It was in a quiet location with lovely views across the bay. We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to revisit.

Did what it said on the tin !

Indigo is a lovely spacious and perfectly located apartment for St Ives with a lovely balcony, view & parking.

We had a lovely 2 week stay and would love to return, but sadly the extortionate price increase of nearly 50% (an increase of almost £1000 for the same two weeks in 2022) has put us off returning. We have stayed with Carbis Bay Holidays for many years and have always found the prices to be reasonable and expect an increase in line with inflation each year, but this latest huge increase is extremely disappointing to see. Looking at other reviews for other properties it seems we are not the only people to think this. We also missed our cream tea on arrival that we were expecting from previous years. It’s a shame that’s gone too. A lovely property but price increase for 2022 unjustifiable.

Wonderful sea view apartment.

Spacious modern and clean. Only 5 minutes to the beach. Perfect for families. Lovely atmosphere around St Ives harbour in the evenings.

Beautiful apartment, spacious and well equipped.

Great to have the balcony for some outside space and with sea views - loved it there

“We would like to thank all involved on our week away. The apartment was absolutely spotless. We were really impressed with the standard of cleanliness. It was well equipped and an ideal base for our favourite beach- Porthminster. The Housekeeper gave us a very warm and helpful welcome and we have found all staff very friendly and efficient. Our daughter said that she wanted to live there! The only thing we can complain about is that the week went too quickly! Thank you for a lovely holiday.” C.Pallett

"We had a fantastic trip, really special place, we have already made a provisional booking fornext year, the standard of accommodation at Indigo was excellent, all mod cons including flat screen tv and sky, as well as ipad docking station and a fully functioning modern kitchen. The view from the room was good. We ate out every night and the Ocean bar and grill on the sea front was our favourite place." D Murten

"We loved the apartment and St Ives, there is a nice public leisure centre with childrens pool and gym just up the hill 5 minutes from Gallinas Point. We used this most days, good for the kids if weather is bad and for a nice swim / gym. We also liked the seals in the harbour almost every afternoon. We liked the fact that we could eat in some nice restaurants but that they also had a childrens menu. St Andrews Bistro was a favourite, very nice food for grown ups and atmnosphere but also very welcoming for children. Paradise Park was great, nice day out for the family, with indoor play. Only 10 minutes drive. We loved everything and will definitely return." A. Devey

"Indigo was a really perfect accommodation. High standard, uncomlicated administration, real like description and pictures on website, tidy and clean. We felt like home. Weather was very good and we had a wonderful week. We made some trips around and tried several locations for eating. Best we had at "Nare-Hotel", Veryan. We can only say it was a lovely week for holiday, only too short." V. & U. Trier

"Just like to say what a beautiful apartment Indigo is. It was spotless and the views were to die for I didn't want to come home, I could have stayed there for the rest of my life. St Ives never disappoints, we had my husband birthday meal at Pizza Express and then a drink at The Sloop In just more or less next door to Pizza Express." M. Shorthouse

"Thanks for your email. We enjoyed another week at Indigo and it met all our expectations. We had a great lunch at the Porthminster Cafe and loved all the walks around the beaches in the area from Lelant to Zennor. The parking at the apartments meant that there was no need to use the car everyday." L. Trower

"Indigo lived up to expectations, modern, well equipped, light and airy, with quality fixtures and fittings. The location is excellent for St Ives and for Porthminster Beach. We would book this apartment again and would be happy to recommend it to others. During our stay we visited the Minack Theatre which was spectacular, we also went down the tin mine at Geevor which gives a unique picture of what life was like for miners, until not so long ago." D. Muffitt

"We enjoyed the week at Indigo thank you, the apartment was well appointed and clean. We went to The Loft which we really love, another favourite of ours is Porthminster Cafe- definitely to be recommended." V. Collier

"We stayed at Indigo, the property is very well equipped and the king-size bed is extremely comfortable. Restaurants in St Ives that we particularly enjoyed were Ocean Grill (great food and great views over the harbour) and Porthmeor Beach cafe (great food and great views over the beach). Porthminster Beach Cafe and Cafe Pasta are also recommended." S. Berry

"We had a great week at Indigo, which was very clean and well-equipped, we particularly appreciated the wifi." L. Trower

Fantastic

Had a lovely week, great view from balcony. Flat is well equipped and comfy. Very clean would definitely book again
