Spindrift was the third holiday we have booked with Luxury Coastal. The previous two had delivered handsomely on the luxury front, and as this trip was to celebrate a 70th birthday, we decided to push the boat out, particularly as Spindrift promised 'a holiday home unlike any other'. Well, its view over Praa Sands is absolutely marvellous. And although we had planned a busy week exploring the area and connecting with family, we could have spent every day just staring out of the windows. Unfortunately, luxurious Spindrift really is not. The photos of Spindrift have been so expertly styled that they create an image that the propery fails to live up to. As another reviewer mentioned last summer, it's all just a bit tired. There are new carpets, and the upstairs shower room has been nicely modernised, but these improvements just highlight the fact that the downstairs bathroom and the kitchen both badly need an upgrade. Ditto the hot tub. From the images, we expected we'd spend a lot of our time on the balcony and patio areas, lapping up the gorgeous views. But the local gull population put paid to that. When we arrived both areas were so well splattered we couldn'y sit anywhere. Puzzlingly, all the patio furniture cushions were also just left out, and so were equally unappealing. It pains me to write such a negative view, but while Spindrift is nice enough, and is in an undoubtedly fabulous location, it's expensive and not what I would consider luxurious.
