Paskins, Cowes - Sleeps 4 - Central
The hosts were great from start to finish. They helped us book the ferry with the discount, and when the ferry was delayed they also helped us get a refund. The place itself was really nice and had pretty much everything we needed. I notice that others complained about noise as it was on the High Street, for us it wasn't too bad. There was some noise, but nothing to keep you up night, although our stay wasn't during any special events.

Pier View Apartment, luxury sleeps 6 in 3 bedrooms
We had a wonderful stay at the Beach House, we have stayed before so we knew what to expect. The apartment was exactly as we remembered it is very much a home from home. The views are absolutely stunning and will not disappoint. We look forward to returning again one day.

Luxury apartment with breathtaking sea views
We truly enjoyed our stay. We loved the area due to wonderful scenery, cliffs, walkable distance to the Needles and breathtaking views. Likewise we loved the flat where we could see the sea and the horizon line straight from the terrace although you need to watch out for your food as seagulls would not miss the opportunity! We also loved local food and drinks (made in the Isle of Wight) which you can find in the local shop close to the flat.

Apartment by the beach
Tides is an absolutely beautiful apartment with a stunning balcony that has the best sea views! It was spotlessly clean with lots of little touches that made it feel very homely! Debbie was the absolute perfect host who was extremely helpful & friendly, & responded extremely quickly to my communications. Thank you Debbie we had a truly fantastic stay!

Beachside Apt.2, Pilots Point. Spacious, sea views
Fantastic views! lovely and clean all throughout. WiFi had good signal. Restaurants and shops nearby. Short walk to the bus stop. It was perfect for our mini holiday!

Coastal View Apartment
We stayed for 6 days in mid-August and it was such a great location and experience for us. Coming up to the day of arrival, Laura was in contact in relation to recommendations for places to see and things to do on site, advice on getting over to the island, where the local shops were etc. The apartment was really quiet and the place was well cared for. When we checked in there was everything there we needed. The fridge was empty and clean, as was the freezer. Everything you would expect for the kitchen was there. You do need to supply your own washing powder, but that was ok. Check out was just as easy and while it was early (10am) there are plenty of ferries running at that time to get you back to the mainland.

Saltwater Apartment
A great apartment within a few mins walk of all the shops and restaurants of Cowes. Very clean, spacious and a great view of the marina. Would definitely stay again

The Ocean Suite, Ventnor Beach (6ft superking bed)
This place is amazing! the views, the location, the decoration, the private, everything feels like a 6 star accomodation. Rowena was very responsive and helpful and has added a lot of personal touches to this place. will DEFINITELY be coming back!

Monterey Egypt Point - Turnstone House
Even better than the photos! Fabulous new house with top spec and so many great amenities. Young people loved the hot tub. Private and yet only 2 mins from the esplanade and 10 min walk from the East Cowes. We loved our stay, Jo was really friendly and helpful in all the communications.

Olive House- 4 bedroom property on the harbour!
Kimberly’s Olive house, is a haven of some sort! 🤓 Situated in a serene, picturesque, riverine area, away from the hustling and bustling of everyday life, combining a blend of modern and urban living, makes it a numero uno for anyone wanting to have a perfect getaway💖 Waking up to the chipping of birds and sight of an array of exotic wildlife, which my family loved to feed, is an experience which will remain indelible. The property was meticulously maintained and had virtually everything we needed, making it the perfect getaway place. It appears to be at the epicentre of the island, making all the attractions available in other locations equidistant away. We were here in February and loved it, the summer is best imagined 🌅 Kimberly is a complete host- proactive, hands on, sympathetic, informative, ……. Her attention to details and sophistication is reflective in the way she manages Olive house and in our estimation, she qualifies to be amongst the exceptional 1% Air bnb hosts.🥇

The Old Post Office- beside the sea bliss + views!
A beautiful house in a perfect location. The place was lovely and quiet, except for the relaxing tinkling of the boat lines when windy. The salt marsh is full of birds and other wildlife. The house was fully equipped and the decor very tasteful. I love an Aga so extra marks for that! The kitchen was so cosy. I would recommend this place.

£72 ferry return on Wightlink available
We stayed at Jenny’s caravan for 4nights over the Easter break. Directions were clear and we found it easily. Jenny was a super helpful host, she responded to questions extremely quickly and had good knowledge about the local area. We didn’t end up using the pool or amenities on site so can’t comment. It was a great place as a base to explore the island. The cheaper rate of wightlink crossing was very helpful as well. Thanks for a lovely stay.

'House on the Shore'
Our third visit to this very comfortable and immaculately kept house. The location is very peaceful and quiet with splendid views over the Solent: a constantly changing seascape. Yarmouth, and its ferry terminal, is only 5 minutes away, Tesco in Freshwater less than 10, and since the island is a major holiday destination eateries of all description abound. Many of them are dog-friendly too. The property itself is on four levels, with stairs to each, and there are also steps in the garden which cannot easily be avoided in order to access the house, so anyone with significant mobility issues could find it challenging.

Wow sea view! Lovely Yarmouth detached cottage
We had a fantastic 3-night stay at this cozy detached house in the Isle of Wight. The stunning sea view was a real highlight, and the peaceful location made it ideal for a relaxing break. The house was clean, warm, and perfect for families, with plenty of space and a well-equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. Both the host and property manager were very helpful and responsive, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for a family getaway—we’d love to come back!

Perfect Retreat in Luxury & Historical Manor House
Kate was a fantastc host from start to finish. She responded quickly to any questions asked and sent clear instructions regarding access to the property prior to our visit. She was also very quick to respond when we contacted her about something we were unable to locate upon arrival. This was sorted quickly and efficiently. The property was incredibly well equiped and very comfortable and spacious. It was also lovely and peaceful with a view of the sea. We were a family group of 8 our ages ranging from 7 months to mid 60's. This property worked well for all of us and we had the most amazing stay there. We would thoroughly recommend this property and would like to thank Kate and her team for making sure we had everything we needed.

Bay House by the beach
We absolutely loved our stay here. It was a beautiful home, nice open kitchen and dining to house us all and close walking distance to the beach. Our hosts were so helpful and responsive in the lead up to our stay which we really appreciated!

2 bedroom seaside apartment with panoramic seaview
Rodney met as us we arrived and was extremely pleasant and kind. He went around the apartment with us to make sure we knew where everything thing was. The apartment was very clean and there was a lovely welcome box with lots of goodies including wine and cake. Milk and orange juice were in the fridge along with some butter. The beds were so comfortable too. And a wonderful sea view

'Seaside' Quaint studio apartment,near beach
My husband and I along with our 7 month baby loved our stay! The location is wonderful, right on the seafront. We didn’t have an issue finding cheap and close parking along the street, which was nice since we had quite a few bags. The space was exactly what we needed. The bed was comfortable and the heating worked nicely, we were very comfortable!

“When all else fails take a holiday”~Book Trinny’s
Lovely flat in great location with excellent communication from host.

Eremue Court Hideaway Yarmouth IOW
Lovely place to stay in a central location in Yarmouth with a parking space. Easy to walk to restaurants and the ferry. Property was nicely put together with a double bed bedroom and sitting room with sofa bed. We used both on our stay and bedding for the sofa bed was provided as requested. Very good and well worth it!!

Rockpools-steps from the beach. *Ferry Discounts
This was our first visit to the Isle of Wight and Katie's lovely apartment was the perfect base for exploring the island. It is comfortable, homely and clean with a small private garden, off road parking and is only a short walk to the beach and local amenities. We visited as a couple but it would also be ideal for a young family. We would happily stay here again. Thanks Katie!

Beachfront 2 bed luxury apartment near New Forest
Apartment is amazing - spotlessly clean, great location. Photos don't really do it justice. Highly recommended - we all had a fabulous time

Beach Lookout - FREE Car Ferry 3+ nights
Perfect location , and was very clean premise

Modern Beach Side apartment with easy access.
The apartment is as close to the beach as you can get, we had an amazing view of the sunset in the bay each night. The apartment has free parking and you can also unload your car in front of the apartment before you park it in the designated space. The apartment is fresh, clean and has everything you need. The restaurants are in walking distance which made it feel like home. The apartment is quite spacious and we loved that it had actual beds (instead of a sleeping-sofa in the living room). We arrived a bit early and Chris managed to provide us an early check-in. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone visiting the island. Ventnor is such a lovely place and this apartment fits right in with the vibe.
