LOCATION: There are plenty of attractions to keep all ages entertained long Sandown seafront. The Pier and glorious Sandown Bay are just a short walk down-hill from the property. Voted one of the island’s best beaches, so why not stretch your legs along the miles of golden sand or swim in the cooling water of the English Channel. The nine-mile stretch between Yaverland and Shanklin, with Sandown nestled in the middle, demonstrates the wonders of geology, with red sandstone through to the white chalk of Culver Cliff. On a lucky day, the remains of fossils can also be found! If you crave an active holiday, the bay is hugely popular with water sports and you’ll be sure to see people paddle boarding, surfing, windsurfing and kite surfing or catamaran and dingy sailing; weather dependent. A short walk towards Yaverland, you will also find the Wild Heart Animal Sanctuary, famous for its big cats. The sanctuary, formerly the Isle of Wight Zoo, gained further recognition due to the owner’s relationship with the naturalist and TV presenter Chris Packman.

Like a hotel with stunning view. The kitchen was well stocked, and we loved the welcome basket which is much appreciated after a day of travelling. Beds very comfortable. We stayed in this block a couple of years ago and I would never tire of the sea view. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Emma Oct 24, 2024 #### Perfect location, walking distance to the pier and beach. Proximity to ocean and the layout of the apartment. The facilities and utilities within the apartment. The beds were super comfortable. The interior furnishings were nice and the multiple seating options in the open plan kitchen lounge worked well. The view was lovely. The entrance instructions we were given on email had the wrong access code to the apartment which wasn't helpful. There was a strong smell of smoke/cigarettes upon entrance to the apartment, whether that is a cleaning product used or the cleaners themselves smoke? Another resident/guest parking in the allocated car bay as ours was closest to a charging point. ##### Emma This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Jul 24, 2025 #### Fantastic property. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Fantastic location and view. Property had everything we needed!

Bathrooms lovely all well appointed.
