The room was great and had everything you could possibly need in a self catering apartment, bedding and towels good quality, and house keeping, well what can we say, the room was immaculately clean 5 Stars!! Bar and Restaurant areas well staffed and immaculately clean at all times. Staff and Owners very helpful Chris and Shannon were very professional in their approach towards all customers and were falling over themselves to give a fantastic service to all. The food was amazing and we ate there two out of the three nights we stayed, we will be returning next year for our 26th Wedding Anniversary and are looking to book once the availability is advertised on the web site. Tom and Debs that are the owners should be really proud of themselves and their Team.

They didn't do Lasagne!!

I recently stayed at The Buccaneer Inn on Friday, November 1st, and had a delightful experience. The spacious room features a large bathroom with a walk-in shower and ample toiletries. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the stunning views added to the charm. Debbie's warm hospitality made the stay even more enjoyable. The inn's location is convenient, being close to Babbacombe Theatre. While breakfast isn't served on-site, Angels Tea Rooms next door offers a perfect morning meal. I highly recommend The Buccaneer Inn for a comfortable and pleasant stay.

Nothing - it was all perfect

The room was spacious, clean and comfortable, with a lovely view. It felt very private, despite being above the pub. The small kitchen area was handy for making toast and sandwiches. Tip - take a tea towel.

Although it wasn't problematic for us, as we parked at a family member's house nearby, the Buccaneer doesn't have it's own parking. The road outside has double yellow lines and although there's a fairly expensive car park behind, it might be difficult to find a parking space in high season. It was practically empty during our stay though.

It's right at Babbacombe beach within easy walking distance of convenience stores, a laundrette, the railway down to the beach proper, bus services. I didn't have a vehicle so using public transport was important. Room has a mini fridge and a lovely covered balcony/veranda for watching the sun rise. Large room, nice bathroom.

For those with hip problems or mobility hindered, there are a set of steps to conquer to get to your room, but it's worth it.

Extremely pleasant and helpful staff. The food far exceeded our expectations especially the freshly prepared tapas despite the kitchen having to deal with a pre-theatre rush which they did with amazing efficiency. Lovely room with many thoughtful extras eg fresh milk in the fridge. We will definitely be back.

Second visit here and now under new owners. We booked the same room and our experience was just as good as before. The rooms are spacious, beds very comfortable and the covered in balcony has great views. The perfect place to people watch! As it was quieter in general in the area, off site street parking was easy to find. We ate in the pub restaurant on one of our nights and the food was good. Would highly recommend this place once again.

Small issue with WiFi but the hosts were quick to resolve it.

The location is just perfect for lovely walks on the Downs and there is a bus stop nearby for going shopping if the weather is not good.Tom is such a friendly guy and nothing is a bother to him. Lovely views to wake up to every morning.

Nothing.. The t.v. channels are a bit limited but really not worth complaining about.

The room was very spacious and spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed. All the staff were very friendly and made sure I had everything I needed.

One stain on the carpet in the passage way. And a hole in the wall in the passage way.

We thought the location, the view from the main window, the size of the bedroom and the bathroom, also the bed it self was very comfortable.

We thought the fridge could of been bigger due to self catering, the main negative for us was the poor bedding including the pillows, the bed it self was great.
