Finding the property was easy and we parked on the main road, after meeting Vincent, he told us we could park round the rear of the property. The first time we did this it seemed tricky but after a couple of days it becomes easier. …

Vincent and Erwan were so accommodating from the point of booking onwards. We were travelling a long way and arrived late in the day but we were so warmly welcomed. The room was perfect with all possible needs catered for, including some absolutely delicious cake! Breakfast was excellent and we will definitely be back. Thank you!

This is probably the best B and B we've stayed in. Vince and Erwan are amazing hosts. The rooms are very comfortable and very well appointed. Breakfast is the highlight - so much choice and well cooked. Torquay and the surrounding bay is very accessible. We will definitely be returning.

Having spent just 2 days at Villa Marina I wish I could have stayed longer. From the wonderful warm welcome to the amazing breakfast and the attention to detail throughout, Vince and Erwan provide a friendly, pleasant atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this jewel of a guesthouse.

My friends and I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Marina over the bank holiday. I contacted the BnB directly and was fortunate enough to be able to book the entire property.From start to finish the experience was fantastic. Vince and Erwan were great hosts with the perfect balance of professionalism and “casualness”. The rooms were spotless and decorated very tastefully. Breakfast was top notch and everything about the stay was made to be as easy as possible.We will definitely be returning and hope to see Vince, Erwan (And Merlin of course) soon.
