On the Water 5 A One-of-a-Kind Stay | Free Parking | By My Getaways

Ever wondered what it’s like to have a luxury room on a cruise ship – but with all the comforts and conveniences of solid ground? Welcome to On The Water 5, a truly unique and boutique holiday home floating right in the heart of Europe’s largest marina. This is more than just a place to stay – it’s an experience you simply won’t find anywhere else in the world. Set on the sought-after East Jetty of Brighton Marina, this petite, charming mezzanine apartment offers stunning panoramic views over the boats and water – best enjoyed from your very own private terrace. Whether you're sipping a morning coffee or toasting the sunset, the ever-changing waterscape provides a peaceful and picturesque backdrop. Step out of your front door and you’re moments from a buzzing mix of restaurants, bars, cafés, boutique shops, a cinema, bowling, and even a casino. And when you're ready to explore more, Brighton's vibrant city centre is just a short bus or taxi ride away.

Whether you're here for a family break, a getaway with friends, or a work trip, you’ll have everything you need for a smooth, comfortable stay. And if there’s anything you’re unsure about, our friendly team is on hand 7 days a week – just give us a shout. We’re here to make sure your stay is hassle-free from the moment you arrive.
We want you to have the best possible experience with My Getaways. Here’s a friendly Guest Guide to help your stay run smoothly

Our Guest Promise

We want you to arrive at a spotless home. If anything has been missed with the cleaning, please let us know straight away, and we will put it right as a priority. If we are unable to resolve it on the same business day, we will offer to move you to another property or refund you for the affected time!

Check-In

We’ll send your check-in instructions via email and SMS at 3 pm on your arrival day for check-in from 4 pm, once your damage deposit/waiver has been paid.

Damage Deposit

We work closely with our property owners to protect their homes and take damage deposits for all bookings. The day before check-in (or on the same day, if applicable), you’ll receive a 3D Secure link to select your preferred damage deposit option. The full deposit is simply pre-authorised on your card and released within 7 days of check-out if no breakages or damages are reported. Guests who prefer not to do a fully refundable damage deposit have the option of a one-off non-refundable damage waiver at a much lower cost.

Smoking

To keep our properties fresh and clean for all guests, smoking of any kind, leaving traces behind suggesting smoking of any kind, or vaping (including e-cigarettes), is not allowed indoors. Please smoke on the street or patio area, if available.

Noise

To help keep things peaceful for our neighbours, we kindly ask that noise be kept to a minimum between 10 pm and 8 am. We want you to have a great time. A little consideration goes a long way to making sure everyone can enjoy their evenings (and get a good night’s sleep!)

Not all properties can host hen, stag, or similar group celebrations. If you’re planning one, just drop us a message, and we’ll happily guide you to a property that can accommodate your group.

Please note that call-outs due to excessive noise or parties may incur a fee.

Pets

This property is not pet-friendly.

Check-Out

Check-out is by 11 am. Unauthorised late departures may incur a £50 per hour fee.

Before You Leave and as a consideration to future guests, please:

Wash up the used dishes.

Bag rubbish and use the correct recycling bins.

Return keys to the key safe (OR) Keynest location.

Switch off the lights.

Close all windows.

Turn down the heating.

These steps help us prepare for the next guests and save energy; every little bit counts.

A Quick Note on Deposits and Property Care

If any of the above guidelines aren’t followed, we may need to make deductions from your deposit to cover additional cleaning or damages. We hope that’s never necessary!

Thanks so much for your understanding and for helping keep things smooth for everyone.

We hope you have a fantastic stay!
