The view from our room was incredible, a lovely victorian style balcony that felt lovely to sit and watch a sunrise or the sailing boats in the evening. Staff were very friendly and attentive, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was plentiful that you could vary it. Great shower. Took away a lot of interiors inspiration too. Excellent location for not just parking but walking to the old town/local shop/beach. I liked that the restaurant wasnt too serving food late or busy in the evenings, it makes for a quieter venue.

The balcony room was very small, which for us was manageable but it's just something to be aware of. Having the balcony was extra space to spread out and so that help

The hotel was in a beautiful location, facing the sea from the back, where there was a cozy little garden and sitting area. It was a 10 min walk down to the beach and a 5 min walk to city centre as well. The shanklin chine (must visit) was only a short walk away. There was separate hotel parking which was convenient. The staff was very helpful and polite, with the owner actively involved in making sure our stay was comfortable. The breakfast was nice with a decent variety, english breakfast along with cereals and fruits for vegan/vegetarians.

The rooms were a little small but cozy enough. The carpets in the hallway were a little dirty, although the ones in the room were clean. One thing I would suggest is to add some vegan/vegetarian options in the breakfast, such as vegan sausages/bacon, otherwise the breakfast was superb.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning villa hotel, and it exceeded every expectation. Nestled in a tranquil setting with breathtaking views, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and family friendly service. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. Check-in was smooth and personal, a beautifully designed space with spacious terrace, and tasteful, modern décor. What truly sets this villa hotel apart is the sense of peace and tranquility. The breakfast, each morning, was a highlight — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you're looking to unwind, explore nearby attractions, or simply enjoy a romantic escape, this villa hotel is a perfect choice. It's rare to find a place that combines such scenes with authenticity and warmth. I can’t recommend it highly enough — a true sanctuary that leaves you refreshed and inspired.

Salma and her team were lovely! Genuinely hospitable and welcoming. The amount of enthusiastic thank you cards on the way reiterated this was not just good luck. The balcony view is as good as somewhere in the Mediterranean when the sun is shining. Complimentary breakfast on the outside terrace with a view of the sea sparkling in the distance, yes please!

It wasn't an issue as I was not in the room much and knew it was not a luxury hotel but the rooms are quite basic. But, this is only an issue if you are wanting/expecting a 4 star experience. Everything was very clean and the bed was comfortable so not an issue. Just be clear on what you want.

The location and view of the hotel is fantastic. The staff is really friendly especially the owner lady. The breakfast was well prepared and offered variety of options.

They offer only two bottle of water at arrival. If you need extra water then the best way is to buy from market otherwise it is quite expensive to buy from Hotel bar. Also it is best to contact hotel for booking as the website only show you the hotel room but not the room floor. There is no lift at the hotel/house so if you have room at top floor (5th floor) then it will be har for you if you don't like stairs.

The view was outstanding. The hotel has a small games room with pool table where you can play and look at the beach. The manager was really great, she made sure that our stay is as good as it can be. She managed to accommodate in a better room as the one we booked was not big enough. They had great breakfast and a bar. You can also speak to them for a discounted ferry into the Isle of Wight. We didn't because we didn't know.

The carpets in common areas are very bad. The pictures of single rooms does not really give you a good understanding of how small they are. But trust me they are very small, good for solo travelers.

Great location and view. Convenient parking at hotel and on street. Friendly, helpful staff, particularly owner, Salma. Ground floor room 2 comfortable and well presented with own balcony/terrace. Communal areas inside and out very attractive and well thought out. Comfy and not bland at all. Even had garden room with billiard table and table football. Good choice of hot and cold breakfast buffet options. We were accompanied on Friday morning by a pianist playing a variety of tunes. Dinner available as well on request. Variety of guests staying. Relaxed atmosphere. Hotel can even sort out half price ferries.

There wasn't really anything not to like.

It’s in a great location just up the hill from the seafront and there was plenty of parking available. Breakfast was lovely and the sea views whilst eating are second to none. The room was clean, comfortable and good value for money. Shower pressure and temperature was great! I loved the piano player at breakfast, amazing touch! The best thing about this hotel though is the staff. They are friendly and so accommodating. I needed a late check in and this was no problem at all for Salma. Salma and her team are great and I will definitely be coming back again. Thank you!

Nothing at all.

The location was amazing. So close to the beach. I loved the breakfast in the morning and loved the layout. If u don’t want to go out there was amazing places to sit and enjoy the view at the hotel. It was cheap as well. Staff were very kind and even offered to get us vegetarian sausages for breakfast due to our religious beliefs.

I didn’t like the check out time. It’s too early. Our ferry left at 7pm and we had lots of time to spare however we had to check out at 10am. I would’ve loved if checkout was a little later. The latest they did was 2pm but you must pay 15£ for every hour from 10am. Other than that it’s amazinnggg.

Friendly staff, great location, easy parking, very clean and fresh bedroom and ensuite. Comfortable bed and pillows. Delicious breakfast. Enjoyed using the summer house with pool table and outside area seating. As an unexpected bonus we also had a lovely sea view.

Breakfast was delicious but if I was going to be picky I'd ask that fruit salad, prunes and/or fresh fruit is added to make it perfect. We also chose a very busy time to go down for breakfast (which is self service) so it was a little hectic until seated.
