We had a wonderful week staying at Solent View Apartment. We were met by Andor who was welcoming and gave us all the information we needed. It’s our second visit and we cannot wait to book again but it looks like October is the next time we could book, it’s very popular. The apartment has everything you could need and would recommend it for anyone looking to spend time in Cowes. It’s close to the shops. Some lovely walks along the beach. ##### Susan Wallbank This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elsa Oct 17, 2020 #### Very well-appointed apartment, with good quality kitchen-ware, beds and other equipment.

Having a mirror that runs the width of the living room gives the appearance of it being much larger and increases the light in the room which is a really good idea. There is plenty of hanging space in the bedrooms and a chest of drawers in the master. The beds are very large and comfortable but the space around them is quite limited, so you might need to do a bit of a shuffle to get to the far side. The bathrooms are well equipped and there are plenty of power sockets in the bedrooms and around the apartment. There are plenty of saucepans but no ovenproof dishes or serving dishes to put something in from the saucepans. There are very large salad serving bowls but nothing smaller or ovenproof. The shelves in the kitchen cupboard are also quite high so a bit awkward for shorter people, so perhaps something like a small step would be a good addition. The housekeeping team were extremely helpful, and immediately came over with a new key fob when we let them know ours wasn't working. A welcome pack of something like milk, bread, etc would have been nice although a few tea bags, coffee sachets were provided. I am not sure if this is the letting agencies policy but we have always found this to be really helpful when we rent, especially if you have had a long day travelling, the last thing you want is to have to go and try and find a local supermarket. Regarding location, if walking into Cowes it is up and down some quite steep hills so may not be suitable for some visitors, if you want to walk to town for a meal. However once you find it, the car park is quite central. We had a lovely week here just before Christmas and would return again. This is a very nice apartment that just needs a few tweaks to make it perfect and I would recommend it. ##### Melany This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good Sep 24, 2019 #### Overall we enjoyed our stay & would return again. Overall we enjoyed our stay & would return again. As our arrival & departure times were changed to allow deep cleaning due to Covid we didn’t expect to find cobwebs in the living area & discarded items behind a chest when looking for a lost phone. The overhead lights in the bedroom didn’t work & nor did the extractor fan in the main bathroom. These problems are reflected in my ratings. Having said all this it’s a large comfy apartment in a great position.

We spent a wonderful week here, using the apartment as our base for exploring the Isle of Wight and became fascinated by all the cruise liners and cargo ships passing in front of the balcony on their way in and out of Southampton. We would definitely like to return. ##### Alan This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tara Apr 18, 2019 #### The apartment is a luxury apartment with a beautiful view of the Solent.

The only slight gripe we had was that the en-suite bathroom sink is very near to the bathroom cabinet and one can bang your head on it if you want to rinse your face but that is a very minor gripe. ##### John This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sam Nov 5, 2018 #### Very enjoyable stay. Very enjoyable stay. Apartment is lovely, spacious and some good features. One tip I would have is that there are very little of the basics provided, which is no problem but would be good to know what does come with the apartment such as olive oil & dishwasher tablets so we could have brought some with us. Overall very happy, good safe parking & nice and close to The sea. Will definitely return. ##### Sam This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Aug 3, 2018 #### Literally couldn't fault the apartment, everything you could ever need has been thought of and cater Literally couldn't fault the apartment, everything you could ever need has been thought of and catered for. The beds are comfy, the kitchen well equipped, it was spotlessly clean and there are loads of gadgets to play with, we found Alexa particularly amusing, especially after a glass or two of wine. The view from the balcony is stunning and were lucky enough to see two large cruise ships sail out. Nice touch with the welcome pack, the wine was very well received. Overall a fantastic week away! ##### James ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hamilton by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hamilton.h1889137.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonkle House](https://www.expedia.ca/Wishaw-Hotels-Bonkle-House.h15996183.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature London Gatwick Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Crawley-Hotels-Sandman-Signature-London-Gatwick-Hotel.h6579.Hotel-Information) > > [The Harlow Hotel By AccorHotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Harlow-Hotels-The-Harlow-Hotel-By-AccorHotels.h950.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ibstock-Hotels-Pinewood-Lodge.h17183221.Hotel-Information) > > [The Crown hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Woodbridge-Hotels-The-Crown-Hotel.h520172.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Peterborough.h2254377.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique Luxury Escapes](https://www.expedia.ca/Diss-Hotels-Unique-Luxury-Escapes.h29745570.Hotel-Information) > > [Windermere Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Windermere-Manor-Hotel.h22280374.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Gatwick Airport Central](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Travelodge-Gatwick-Airport-Central.h10160516.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Northampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Northampton-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Northampton-Town-Centre.h12543.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Milton Keynes](https://www.expedia.ca/Milton-Keynes-Hotels-Novotel-Milton-Keynes.h892420.Hotel-Information) > > [Beautiful Country Cottage private Indoor Swimming Pool ,Hot Tub, & Games room.](https://www.expedia.ca/Swindon-Hotels-Beautiful-Country-Cottage-Private-Indoor-Swimming-Pool.h34047025.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Peterborough by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Peterborough.h281577.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Peterborough.h2928593.Hotel-Information) > > [Heated indoor pool & spa, countryside holiday cottage near the beach & park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hastings-Hotels-Heated-Indoor-Pool-Spa.h18971402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Lumley Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Chester-Le-Street-Hotels-Lumley-Castle-Hotel.h175571.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tintagel-Hotels-Camelot-Castle-Hotel.h8083111.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson BLU Hotel Durham](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Radisson-BLU-Hotel-Durham.h2226171.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h7234788.Hotel-Information)
