Escape to Paradise: East Wittering Beach House - My Honest (and Slightly Rambling) Review

Okay, so I've just got back from a stay at "Escape to Paradise," that East Wittering beach house with the, you know, sea views. And let me tell you, unpacking this experience is a bit like trying to untangle Christmas lights after a particularly enthusiastic toddler's "decoration" session. It's a beautiful mess. But a good one. A really good one.

Let's start with the access, because I'm a bit of a stickler for that. The blurb talks about facilities for disabled guests, which is great! Though, to be honest, I didn't test the full extent of it. I’m just a regular human, not a mobility scooter, and the website could be a little clearer on exactly what's accessible and what isn't. That being said, getting in and out of the place felt pretty breezy – no ridiculous steps or anything that screamed “accessibility nightmare".

Right, onto the good stuff… the “escape” part!

The sea views. Oh, the sea views. I swear, I spent half my time just staring out the window, lost in thought. Or, you know, just staring. It's genuinely stunning. Waking up to that, with the crashing waves and fresh air… pure bliss. The room had those blackout curtains, which were a lifesaver for a light sleeper like me, and it also has a window that opens – a small thing, but it makes a world of difference breathing in that sea breeze. The rooms are non-smoking, which is a huge plus because it's so annoying when you get that stale smoke smell. The Wi-Fi situation was a godsend. Seriously, free Wi-Fi in all rooms! and Wi-Fi in public areas! This kind of connectivity made it feel like a home away from home. I was able to upload photos and videos, watch my shows, and stay connected with my work.

Food, Glorious Food (and the Occasional Hiccup)

The dining options were a mixed bag, but mostly good. There’s a restaurant and a coffee shop. The Asian breakfast was a welcome change from the usual greasy spoon. I did like the option of a breakfast takeaway since I'm not always into getting ready early. The a la carte in the restaurant option was a bit pricey, but the desserts in the restaurant were to die for! I will admit, I was a little bit disappointed they didn't have vegetarian restaurant options. I was hoping for a bit more variety, but I managed.

Cleanliness and Safety – Because Let's Be Honest, We All Care Now

This is where "Escape to Paradise" really shines. Anti-viral cleaning products? Professional-grade sanitizing services? Rooms sanitized between stays? Yes, yes, and yes! I felt incredibly safe and comfortable the whole time. Seeing the staff trained in safety protocol really put me at ease. It really did a lot for my overall experience.

Things to Do (or Not Do, Depending on Your Mood)

Okay, the fitness center and gym/fitness weren’t exactly my thing. I'm more of a "lie on the beach and read a book" kind of person. But for those who are into that, it's an option. I did check out the pool with a view. And… wow. Just wow. Imagine a clear blue pool facing the sea, with the sun setting. It’s picture-perfect and I spent hours swimming there.

There’s also the spa. They offer body scrubs and body wraps, but I skipped those. Massage was top-notch, though. I did get a foot bath and loved it.

Services and Conveniences – The Little Things That Matter

Daily housekeeping was a godsend. Coming back to a clean room after a day at the beach is a luxury I could get used to. The concierge was super helpful too. I used the laundry service, which was so convenient. And can I just say, the coffee in the restaurant was amazing, especially the complimentary tea in the room. My only little hiccup was with the room service [24-hour]. It took a bit longer than expected. But that's okay, I was on vacation and not in a rush.

For the Kids and all the family

I didn't bring any kids, but I did see a lot of families enjoying themselves. They have babysitting service and kids meal available. I see it offers family/child friendly.

The Downside (Because Life Ain't Perfect)

The biggest bummer? The pets allowed unavailable. I left my little dog behind.

The Verdict (and the Pitch!)

Look, "Escape to Paradise" isn't perfect. Nothing is. But it's pretty darn close. It's clean, safe, and the views? Unbeatable. It's the kind of place where you can truly relax, get away from it all, and recharge.

Here's the deal:

Mariners Stylish Beachside Getaway with Sea Views East Wittering United Kingdom

Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because you're getting the REAL, gritty, sand-in-your-pants version of my Mariners Stylish Beachside Getaway (cue dramatic music) to East Wittering, UK. Forget Instagram perfection; this is unfiltered REALITY. And let me tell you…it’s gonna be a ride.

Day 1: Arrival, Arrival, Annoyance…and Accidental Seagull Encounters.

  • 1:00 PM: Landed at Gatwick. My stomach is already doing this nervous flutter thing. Travel, you know? Always a gamble. I'm convinced the budget airline I took decided to use recycled air from a clown convention. But hey, saved money, and that's what matters, right? (Narrator: It always seems that's all that matters, until your lungs feel like prunes).
  • 2:00 PM: Car rental. Don't ask. The car was named "Brenda". Interior smelt something awful, and the GPS lady sounded like she was slowly losing the will to live, but Brenda got the job done. Thankfully.
  • 3:30 PM: FINALLY arrived at Mariners! First impressions? OMG, the view. Just… wow. The actual sea. The actual sky. The actual…everything. Now let's unpack the car.
  • 4:00 PM: Unpacked the car; Brenda is safely parked. The apartment is gorgeous… except for the light bulbs. One on the bedside table is out, I swear! (I've noticed a few missing in the main room which can be fixed next time. I will, of course, need to buy some bulbs, which I will promptly forget.)
  • 4:30 PM: Walked to the beach. OMG, the sand is perfect, really. I didn't have much faith in the English seaside but I stand corrected. Also, a seagull. A REALLY determined seagull eyeing up my picnic basket that I didn't even get to use. (Sidenote: I'm starting to think these birds might be the descendants of Vikings or something).
  • 5:00 PM: Decided to stroll along the beach. Found a cute little cafe with a super-friendly owner with a very thick accent. Ordered a coffee that was strong enough to raise the dead.
  • 6:00 PM: Back to the apartment. Trying to settle in. Feel a bit overwhelmed by all the possibilities. Should I hit up a restaurant or just stare at the sea? It's a tough call, people, a very tough call. (Verdict: Sea-staring wins. For now.)
  • 7:00 PM: Eating the picnic that remained in my basket. It was a sandwich; nothing to write home about, I guess the sandwich got me enough energy to start the next day.

Day 2: Sea, Sand, and Sudden Existential Dread – All the Things!

  • 8:00 AM: Woke up to the most gorgeous sunrise. Almost worth the early wake up. (Almost.) Actually, it was. I even nearly considered getting out of bed to photograph it, but my bed was also calling to me.
  • 9:00 AM: Beach walk, round TWO. The tide was out…so much open sea! This time I bravely tackled the sandy bit, but the waves still seemed to beckon me to some far off land.
  • 10:00 AM: Okay, here's the big one: I went stand-up paddleboarding. And let me tell you, it was a comedy of errors. Picture this: me, looking like a newborn giraffe trying to learn to walk, wobbling on a board, and looking very elegant indeed, when a wave knocked me off; I plunged into the frigid water. It was so cold that my internal organs briefly considered staging a revolt. The locals, thankfully, were thoroughly amused. (Narrator: They're probably still chuckling about it). But you know what? It was BRILLIANT. Pure, unadulterated, salty, and icy joy. The adrenaline, the struggle… it was…amazing. I'll be honest, I was terrified, but I'll be even more honest - I want to go again.
  • 12:00 PM: Lunch at a local pub. Proper pub grub! Fish and chips. Bloody good! Washed it down with a pint of something local. Felt like a proper Brit for about an hour.
  • 2:00 PM: Decided to read my book on the beach. Got about three pages done before I was distracted by every single tiny thing. The sun. The sky. The waves. That one guy trying to fly a kite who clearly had no idea what he was doing (and was getting increasingly frustrated). The seagulls. The beach. Okay, so I was officially distracted.
  • 4:00 PM: A very intense beachcombing session. Found a bit of sea glass and some seashells! It was the highlight of the day, to be honest.
  • 6:00 PM: As the sun was setting, the light turned the sea and sky into a palette of oranges, pinks, and purples. I sat in silence, watching it. It was breathtaking. (This is why I came; this is the whole point)
  • 7:00 PM: Decided to have a takeaway. Again (I had to be mindful of the sea and seagulls). The food was a little underwhelming.
  • 8:00 PM: Watched telly for a bit, then decided to turn off the lights, and stare out at the sea, and had a bit of a cry. Sometimes that’s all you need. (Emotional reaction: all over the place).

Day 3: Farewell, For Now (and a Deep, Deep Sigh)

  • 9:00 AM: One last beach walk. I was going to try and find a shell for a souvenir, but then got waylaid by a particularly intriguing rock.
  • 10:00 AM: Packed. Ugh, packing. The worst.
  • 11:00 AM: One last epic sea gazing session. I am going to miss this. I AM. I think I will miss Brenda too.
  • 12:00 PM: Checked out. Said goodbye to the apartment with a pang.
  • 1:00 PM: Brenda’s GPS gave up again. Got a bit lost. Added a slight delay. (I'm starting to think maybe I am the problem)
  • 2:00 PM: Back to Gatwick.
  • 3:00 PM: The flight’s boarding.

Final Thoughts:

This trip wasn't perfect. There were moments of frustration, moments of pure joy, and moments when I just wanted to hide under the covers. But that's real life, isn't it? And you know what? It was bloody brilliant. I'll be back, East Wittering. I'll be back. And next time, I'm bringing a more substantial kite, and a MUCH better sandwich.

(Postscript: Still no idea where the light bulbs went. But hey, at least the view was amazing.)

Escape to Paradise: East Wittering Beach House - FAQ (Because Let's Be Real, You Have Questions!)

Okay, first things first: Is it *really* as good as the pictures? Because, you know, Instagram lies.

Alright, let's be brutally honest, shall we? The pictures? Yeah, they're gorgeous. The sunsets? Stunning. The sea view? Makes you want to chuck your phone in it (in a good way). But here's the messy truth: Photos are curated. They skip over the sand getting *everywhere* – even in places you *swear* doors were closed. They don't show my perpetually damp flip-flops. They MIGHT – just *might* – fudge the real size a smidge. (Okay, maybe more than a smidge.) But here's the heart of it: It's *authentically* stunning. The feeling of waking up to that view? Worth every grain of sand. One time, I sat on the balcony with a cup of tea, and a seagull literally *stole* my biscuit. He swooped in, snatched it, and flew off. I was furious, but also... impressed. That's the kind of chaos you get. Paradise-adjacent chaos.

Speaking of the view... what's it *really* like? I'm talking, can I actually see the sunset from the sofa?

YES! YES, YOU CAN! Okay, breath. I had to go inside to think about this. And while you could, the weather isn’t always cooperating. I love it. And yes, I'm shouting it from the rooftops, because that view... It's more than just a view, isn't it? It's an experience. The sunsets? Unreal. I've seen them painted on the sky in hues I didn't even *know* existed. One evening, I was convinced the sky was on fire. (It wasn't. Just a particularly glorious sunset.) The sofa? Perfectly positioned. Coffee in hand, blanket wrapped around you, just *watching* the world turn orange and purple. It's a spiritual experience, basically. Be warned: you will spend hours just gazing. And possibly talking to yourself. Don't worry, it's normal. I still do, every time.

How's the house itself? Is it all pristine and perfect, or does it have, you know, *character*?

Alright, let's get down to brass tacks. It's *not* a sterile, show-home situation. Thank heavens. Think cozy, comfortable, lived-in. There's character. Potentially even some *quirks*. The floors might creak. There's probably a drawer that sticks. (Don't worry, it's usually the cutlery one.) But that's part of the charm. It's real. It feels like a *home*, not a museum. Stuff happens there. Someone once spilled red wine on the rug. (It wasn’t me, I swear!) And you know what? It added to the story. Think of it as a place where memories are *made*, not just passively observed. Oh, and the beds are comfy. Very important.

The beach - is it actually *accessible*? I have a bad back/a small child/a fear of sand.

Okay, let's tackle this one head-on. Accessibility is key. The house is *very* close to the beach. In fact, I swear I can smell the salty goodness from the living room. The beach is easy to get to - a short walk. I've seen grannies, toddlers, and people with questionable fitness levels all manage it. It's sandy, yes. The kind of sand that gets *everywhere*. The good news is: East Wittering, from my experience, the sand is fine and easily brushed off. If you're terrified of sand... well, maybe seaside holidays aren't for you. You could have tried a mountain getaway. But if you're just *slightly* averse, embrace it. It's part of the bliss. Also, there are usually a few dogs running around on the beach, so be prepared to befriend some happy pups.

What's the kitchen situation like? Can I actually *cook* something more complicated than toast?

Okay, the kitchen. It’s not a Michelin-starred chef situation, alright? But it's perfectly functional. There are pots and pans, utensils, and all the basics. I've cooked everything from simple pasta dishes to slightly ambitious roasts (one of which almost set off the smoke alarm. Oops!) My worst kitchen experience? Attempting to make a soufflĂ©. It resembled a deflated pancake more than a fluffy cloud. But at least there was wine. There's a dishwasher. (Hallelujah!). So, yes, you can cook. And should. Because eating fresh seafood with that view? *Chef's kiss*. The fridge is decent-sized. Don't overpack it, like I always do. And, for the love of all that is holy, don’t forget the corkscrew!

Is East Wittering itself any good? What's there to *do*?

East Wittering? It's charming. Really. It's got a village feel, but with a proper beach. There are cute little shops - you know, the sort where you can browse for hours, and possibly buy something completely unnecessary but delightful. There are a couple of really decent restaurants - I'm a huge fan of the pub, personally. Fish and chips on the beach? Essential. The sea itself? Perfect for swimming (if you're brave!), paddleboarding, or just generally splashing about. The area also has some lovely walks. Take a hike and get some views. If you like to visit nearby attractions, you have Selsey, Chichester, and Pagham within a reasonable driving distance. Basically, there’s enough to keep you entertained without being overwhelmed. It's a proper getaway, not some tourist trap. My best time? Finding a rock pool, with a crab. It was a tiny little thing with one massive claw. I watched him for ages. (And then I put him back, obviously).

What about parking? Is it a nightmare?

Parking, ah, the eternal holiday question! Yes, there is parking. And no, it's not a complete free-for-all. There's usually space. During peak season, it *might* take a couple of minutes to maneuver, but it's usually doable. I've always managed. (And if I can, anyone can.) Take your time. Be patient. And if you're feeling particularly rebellious, embrace the slightly wonky parking.

Is it noisy at night? I need my beauty sleep – or at least, a chance to pretend I'm getting it.
