Company information
Expect a warm greeting from Toni & Sally as they welcome you to the Aqua Bay guest house, a family run business with a friendly, personal feel which sets it apart from the dreary rooms of the chain hotels. It is a guest house where you are invited to make yourself comfortable and treat it as your home.
Property information
Welcome to the Aqua Bay, one of the last remaining traditional guest houses on the Herne Bay seafront. Our lovely Victorian building is central to the charm of this wonderful beach resort that offers both fabulous views and personal customer service for the quintessential English seaside experience. We have two Seaview Family Rooms which give our guests a wonderful opportunity to watch some of the breath-taking sunrises and sunsets which Herne Bay offers. Please note these rooms are located on the 2nd & 3rd floors so not recommended for those unable to climb stairs or with health issues. Our standard rooms offer cosy, comfortable accommodation and are situated at the rear of the building. All rooms have free Wi-Fi, TV, tea/coffee making facilities and a hairdryer. An iron & ironing board are available for guest use on request. Please note we do not provide guaranteed parking, however there is paid parking directly outside the Aqua Bay operated by the local council which accepts card/cash payment. There are also any free spaces available within a very short walk of the guest house.
Neighbourhood information
Herne Bay and neighbouring Whitstable boast many excellent restaurants and pubs all within easy walking distance and we are renowned for our locally caught fish and chips. It has both a welcoming and diverse community, friendly locals and a strong sense of pride that overflows into the clean streets, blue flag beaches and tourist attractions. Herne Bay itself is very popular for water sports, jet skiing, wind surfing, and sailing and is also suitable for swimming and excellent fishing. Herne Bay has also recently been awarded a blue flag for its excellent beaches. The town excels itself for walking and cylicng holidays enabling you to visit nearby Whitstable to savour the many restaurants, bars and fish harbour. Herne Bay is in close proximity of the City of Canterbury and offers the opportunity of visiting many seaside resors and the Thanet coast line which boasts a wide diversity of birdlife and nesting colonies, and skylarks at nearby Reculver.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
