We are a family of 6 who had the good fortune to stay at Golden Bay Village in one of their luxury apartments over Christmas.
The apartment is positioned immediately in front of Westward Ho! promenade, therefore, having an awesome sea view and easy access to the promenade.

Had the best time again staying in a lighthouse view property. The customer service was amazing. The properties are very clean , comfortable, spacious and well equipped for a family who cooks to save in expenses. We are going again later this year and cannot wait
