Luxury sea view hotel with pool- south coast

[newmum1976]

Looking for a luxury sea view hotel on the South Coast, with pool, to celebrate a family birthday. Any ideas? Most hotels I’ve looked at are a bit dated, or have no pool, or get average trip advisor ratings. We need 5 rooms for 11 people. Ideally looking in Poole area, or similar ie. not as far as Devon/Cornwall or too far into East Sussex. Thanks.

But that first one linked to that you said was too expensive had double rooms for £245 per night? I’m so confused as to what you’re looking for now!

Great suggestions everyone. I've been looking for a luxury hotel for a few days as well so have noted them all!

Sandbanks hotel

We keep getting emails from the Beachcroft in West Sussex. Looks lovely but not been there.

I know it’s too far, but for anyone else looking for similar but willing to go to Devon, definitely Saunton Sands www.sauntonsands.co.uk

Thanks, I’ll take another look as £250 would be fine but the dates I put in were £900 per night.

We’ve been here and it’s very good. Just too far for us all to travel to,

Sorry that was to @TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross

If you can change your mind and get as far as Devon, the Harbour Beach Club near Salcombe is excellent.

That looks lovely.

If the length of the journey is what puts you off then you could fly to Newquay and stay at the Scarlet

Have you stayed here? Trip advisor is putting me off.

Look lovely. Forgot to say we have kids coming with us, so this won’t work.

The Haven is nice - pool / spa / beach - brilliant restaurants nearby on Studland.

Sidmouth harbour hotel is nice

The Cumberland in Bournemouth is nice. Not five star, but nice enough and has a good restaurant and nice outdoor pool.

Chewton Glen? No sea view but it’s a very short walk to the beach and it has a nice outdoor (and indoor) pool.

If you dont mind going to north devon for it, Saunton Sands hotel is pretty awesome. Pool and its right by the beach. they also do apts

The Nici, Bournemouth- recently opened.

Knoll House, Studland.

Thank you so much to everybody who has commented. I’m sure i’ll find the perfect place out of one of these.

Royal Hotel at Ventnor on the Isle of Wight is really lovely, has a pool and sea views.

Harbour Hotel, Sidmouth would fit the bill. Breakfast on the terrace is fab.

Sorry I read your thread wrong, I realise you don’t want to go as far as Devon.

Sandbanks hotel is a bit crappy, great location right on the beach but very 3 star

Have you considered Wales? This has a sea view and pool but isn’t terribly luxurious

What about The Pig at Studland?
