Harbour Beach Club Hotel & Spa

We spent a couple of nights here and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Stunning location, beautiful views, lovely staff and delicious food. We dined here on both evenings and found the food to be consistently good. One evening was the table d’hote set menu and the other was a la carte. Both were excellent. Breakfasts were good too, we had the continental option and enjoyed the fresh fruit salad, crunchy cereals, freshly baked pastries and cappuccinos. |The gym and pool were fabulous and they weren’t too busy before breakfast. |Dan explained everything clearly as he showed us to our room, Ashley on reception was efficient and friendly, Ewen had a delightful way of ensuring we had everything we needed in the dining area and Doriana looked after us discreetly and happily over dinner. We were very impressed with all of the staff and one young man even offered to carry our suitcase to the car as we left, as it was raining and we were heavily laden! Staff went above and beyond and we really appreciated that. |Thank you to everyone ( including the chefs!) for a memorable stay. |And for the card and champagne truffles for our ruby anniversary, a lovely touch.

Another wonderful stay at HBC. Our favourite place to visit as often as possible.|The setting is incredible. The views from every aspect of the hotel, |are stunning. |The bar staff are superb - even remember my favourite drink and how I like my coffee also hat my hubby likes strong tea. They all work so hard and such long hours to ensure a pleasant experience for all their guests. |Reception staff are always polite, friendly, welcoming and professional Have stayed many different rooms in the past and have difficulty in deciding on our favourite one. The beds are all huge and so comfortable - like to sleeping on a cloud. |The Spa is amazing. An Oasis of peace and calm. I have spent many hours relaxing in the warmth of the Jacuzzi!-a must do on arrival, after travelling any distance. The treatments are wonderful and the therapists are incredible Oh and not forgetting the early morning beach yoga. A wonderful experience that I always look forward to, rain or shine. |We have never had a bad meal in the restaurant and we love the fact that there is a light bites menu available during the day. |Relaxing on the terrace, overlooking the beach with an Aperol Spritz is another of my favourite things to do! |What else can I say Our little piece of heaven in Devon.

The pillows were lumpy. Carpet needs replacing. Breakfast needs covering and better selection. However, Spa excellent, Courtesy bus Excellent and Adi very helpful. |Stunning views and staff work hard. |Otherwise a good stay for a short break. |If your not a confident driver be Aware of the narrow roads to the hotel. |Great restaurant tge crab shed.....book.

Currently staying at HBC and overall it’s a nice hotel but very disappointed to find that having booked (and paid for) a ‘sea view’ room it’s only got a partial view at best.||Our room is on the ground floor so we have a terrace looking on to one of the two dining terraces. (This at face value is not an issue for us - but certainly not something we would have selected). However, half of the view is obscured by the reception entrance, so if either of us sits on the left hand side of our terrace we cannot see any of the sea; and our view is further obscured by the plants immediately in front of us. (We paid for a sea view after all not a view of a plant pot.) The hotel has presumably put planters in front of the room to give privacy from the sofa/seating area immediately outside our room - but for what they charged for the room that seating shouldn’t be there at all! ||Sitting on the right hand side the sea view is very limited but can be improved slightly by standing up…defeating the object of having chairs to sit on. (See pictures.)||Such a disappointment having chosen to pay for a ‘sea view’ room over a cheaper land view room. It’s disingenuous of the hotel to sell this room as a double sea view - it should be sold at a cheaper rate as a partial sea view room. Very poor. We would have insisted we be moved but the couple checking in before us were told the hotel was fully booked. The room is room 1 so you are aware if you book.

The staff team made our stay so memorable and such fun. Jade and the legendary Chloe in the spa, Dan and Adie who helped us with so much, Ashley on reception, Doriana and the lovely woman from Northumberland plus the team in the restaurant and bar plus everyone we came across were incredible. Plus Paul who drove us into Salcombe on the hotels taxi bus.|Without the team, the beautiful views and great location would have been good, but the staff made all the difference. We’re coming back soon

Wow, wow, wow! We have just come back from a one night stay and we wish we booked for longer. Such a stunning hotel in the most breathtaking location. It felt like we were abroad. The staff were so lovely and welcoming, the room was modern and overlooked the sea (which was beautiful). We stayed for my Husbands birthday and they left a birthday card & chocolates for him which was so kind. Food was delicious! Such a great choice of food & drinks which we enjoyed whilst looking over the sea in the evening and for breakfast. Spa facilities are lovely, they even allow you to use them before check in if you wanted to. Everything was so clean, tidy and modern with a beach/abroad vibe. We had the best time and will 100% be coming back soon. Thank you so much Harbour Beach Club!

Visited the terrace for lunch/tea on a beautiful day. Our order was simple, including one cream tea and one club sandwich. The chicken in the club sandwich was a grey colour - clearly thigh meat, unappetising and sinewy - pretty inedible truthfully. The tea element of the cream tea did not arrive until after we had eaten the food, and after two prompts.|We have stayed twice before, each time encountering similar problems, with sub-standard food and failure to bring the right things on time without repeated reminders.|This is a beautiful location, and should be a wonderful offering, but sadly, even after three years, fails to deliver.|So unfortunate.

We stayed couple of weeks ago for our 40th Wedding anniversary. Don’t normally do reviews but I feel this is deserved. Everything about our weekend was amazing and beautiful, we felt listened to and heard when couple of issues arose and resolved quickly by James (the duty manager at that time). The rest of the staff too were just lovely, the barman (can’t remember his name) made the best cocktails, one which was not on their menu however my husband’s all time favourite. I feel if there’s a ‘complaint’, ‘issue’ or just something not quite right, it’s the delivery of the communication to enable staff to correct it. If you feel there’s not enough food, or something not quite to standard, have that constructive conversation, suggest reasonable ideas, be respectful to hospitality (some are young people trying to make ends meet). Thank you and well done to Harbour Hotel, you made our stay very memorable and we will be returning.
