About this property

Nautical and nice! A few steps from a lovely sandy beach. WIFI INCLUDED.

Come to Pembrokeshire with an average 1667 hours of sunshine per year! Stella Marina is situated in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park with fabulous scenery and many beaches, and Freshwater East beach is just a few steps away! Leave the car where it is and stroll to the beach without having to worry about time restrictions and expensive parking. This is a nautical themed chalet and the blue and white decor is fresh and homely. This is an end of terrace chalet which benefits from a patio area on the side so you can have sunny lunches. The chalet benefits from a new and improved pitched roof and coloured cladding which provides a more cosy and secure feel. The lilac blue is in keeping with the pastel colours of the Pembrokeshire harbourside cottages. The accommodation consists of an open plan lounge/dining/kitchen. Wifi is included and there is a new Sony TV with freeview catch-up TV BBCiplayer, Netflix with subscription and a DVD pLayer. In the lounge there is a lovely feature fireplace with a shell and pebble flame effect which continues the seaside feel and adds instant warmth and ambience. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need and includes an electric hob, oven, and dishwasher. The dining room has a comfortable extendable table and a quaint dresser housing lots of books, games and DVDs. There is a new blue and white striped stair carpet to:
Bedroom 1 this has feature wall with lighthouses and ships and a cosy double bed and there is also a built in cupboard with hanging space. Bedroom 2 has wallpaper with ships and two 3ft adult single beds (no bunks!) with new memory foam mattresses and also a wardrobe.

The little house was immaculate when we arrived and with lots, but not too much, of seaside decor throughout. All very tasteful and lovely....blue and white, stripey, coastal pictures and wallpaper, puffins everywhere and more. The bed was comfy ( always very important!) and the bed linen beautiful and lovely quality. Nice to have coffee and tea and milk there when we arrived and some cakey snacks too.

Donna’s chalet was perfect for our family holiday, 5 minutes walk to the beach with a great restaurant at the end of the road (Jacks at the Longhouse) for dinner on our way to the beach! Donna sent helpful tips on local sights to see before and during the stay. We fell in love with Freshwater East, the beach is so clean and not busy! Loads to do for children in the local area. Can’t recommend enough! Thanks Donna!

Amazing holiday at Stella Marina

From the moment we walked through the door we felt at home, lovely welcome pack waiting for us, the cake was delicious. The chalet was very homely and comfortable, everything you needed. This was an excellent location to explore West Wales and just having the beach across the road was fantastic. I would defiantly recommend Stella Marina to anyone thinking of holidaying here and would defiantly stay again. Thank you so much for letting us use your amazing chalet. xx

Relaxing family break

We had a lovely week in fresh water east, the property was very clean and the kitchen very well equipped. The only thing it was missing was a washing machine but there are laundrettes locally. The chalet is on a lovely complex which was very quiet and only 5 mins walk from a gorgeous long sandy beach. We loved exploring and went to 4 beaches, pembroke castle castle the dinosaur park. So much to do for families in the area. Thank you for a fun and relaxing week

Everything we needed (apart from the weather!)

A lovely, compact, clean property within easy walking distance of the beach. A great base for a week’s holiday with the kids. Had everything we needed. Bottle of wine, milk, coffee, tea and Welsh cakes to greet us upon arrival. Much appreciated, thanks. Free good Wi-Fi and NetFlix compatible TV kept the kids happy. Bodyboards, windbreaks, beach tent etc in the under stairs cupboard. The kitchen had all we required to eat in most nights including Dishwasher, cooker, microwave and a full range of pans and cutlery. Lovely sandy beach with rock pools within a few hundred yards. Plenty of places to visit when the weather wasn’t so great. Pembroke Castle, Carew Castle, Picton Castle, Manor Wildlife Park, Tenby etc. Had a great week and would definitely stay in this seaside-themed property again. Very friendly, helpful owner. Thanks again.

Very damp cottage

On arriving for a 2 week stay the cottage stank of damp. Despite using the heating and ventilating a lot over the 2 weeks the smell of damp was still strong on the day we left and all of my clothes had taken on the smell. The 2 bedrooms do not have any wardrobe space at all so you have to live out of a suitcase. The only available WiFi at the cottage is a very slow BT Open network which drops out intermittantly and costs over a fiver each day. The next door neighbour parked his car directly at the bottom of the steps to the cottage blocking them completely. This forced us to scramble up the grassy 45 degree slope. When the grass was wet this was definately a health and safety risk and not to be recommended for anyone who is not very agile and sure of their footing.

Sea, sand and adventure

With 2 young children aged 6 and 8 it was an Ideal spot for a break by the sea. The house provided all that we needed for a short vacation. In the local area lots of lovely local beaches to choose from, the closest only 8 minutes walk from the house. Jacks bar 2 minutes walk away provides good food, drinks and a friendly staff. When the weather was not so good Hanger5 trampolining in Harverfordwest. Heatherton World of Activities was great fun day out for all the family. And we all enjoyed our visit to Pembroke Castle. Great memories for our grandchildren

Simply a great chalet in great location

Putting aside the great location of the Fresh Water East great sandy beach that’s just a 5 mins walk from the chalet. The chalet is well positioned with good allocated parking. The owners Donna & Tony have made a great job of creating the seaside holiday feeling with good choice of decor. The beds and seating are comfortable. All the equipment is clean & modern and everything you need for a great holiday is there. No hesitation in recommending.

Stella holiday apartment 'Stars'

This was our second visit and it was just as perfect as we'd remembered. Our hosts had thought of everything & the apartment was so well equipped from the kitchen diner & lounge to wet day & outdoor play equipment. We really appreciated the comfort & cleanliness and especially the homely, welcoming touches that showed our hosts thoughtfulness. We will definitely be back for a 3rd visit.

Fabulous as always

I have stayed in Freshwater East on many occasions, this was the first time at this property. The chalet was very clean and very well equipped with all you could need. The bedding smelt clean and the beds very comfortable, the whole place had been cleaned to a very high standard before we arrived. There was even lots of items for the beach ( which is a 2 minute walk) including beach tent, wind shield, buckets, spades, body boards and sun shade. Freshwater beach is wonderful and very safe, there are Lots of rock pool at either side of the large expanse of beach. Travelling a little further a field there is lots to see and do. I would highly recommend this accommodation decorated with a seaside theme, and hope to return next year if not sooner.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Fracchiolla

Host profile image
We purchased this property in 2016 and we have made many improvements and continue to do so to ensure we provide a quality stay. We love to relax and walk along the beach and we would love you to experience this too.

Why they chose this property

We chose Stella Marina as the chalet is located at the beach end of the park with quick and easy access to the beach so you don't need to lug those chairs. From the chalet there are views across to the hills. We also chose this chalet as it has room for two 3ft single beds (not bunks) and there is also a side patio for sunny lunches.

What makes this property unique

You are at the beach in a couple of minutes and as soon as you hear the sea and feel the sand between your toes all your worries melt away. The kids love to run free on the safe sandy beach and the river runs through the beach and provides a sea pool which is great for paddling and is safe for inflatable boats.
