Houseboats in Isle of Wight

"Room: 😃 excellent cleanliness, dramatic scenic view, well designed and kept, bigger size than usual (specially the bathroom), unique features - The double shower…wonderful - the noise of the sea from inside the room…very relaxing. 😐 no toothbrush and paste provided, which based on my experience, typically hotels do. Although the noise of the sea from inside the room (door closed) can be relaxing, it can also give you trouble to sleep if you are noise sensitive - note when we have been there was windy and sea wavy. Location: 😃 Amazingly positioned at the west end of the beach, along the west costal path which lead you to Alum bay to west and Compton bay to est, ideal for hiking lovers. Facilities: 😃 big car park with barred entrance and exit, amazing view from the restaurants, good breakfast provided, service at the tables outside on the terrace restaurant. 😐 music in the restaurant at breakfast time, can not seat inside if you are very noise sensitive, bottled water is not included and very expensive. Amenities: 😃 library! 😐google shows there is a Spa, with indoor swimming pool, but THERE IS NOT! - it was the previous hotel being there that had it. Staff: "

"The room was a little cold, but the staff gave us an electric heater. So all was good. Lovely staff, food amazing deffo recommend. "

"Staff very good, and friendly. Food good. Hotel in need of refurb, looking dated inside and room sadly wasn't very clean. I was only staying for 1 night, so didn't want to ask to change rooms and bed was clean. Shame, as this was the only thing that let the place down."

"Really great spot so close to the beach and walk to the local pub/restaurant. Pool on site looked great though I didn't use. Everything I needed in my cottage with lovely bonus of a hot tub after a long walk. Got there by public transport and didn't need a car as bus stop right near the entrance."

"easy check in, and room was ready early, Thanks to the staff for doing a great job."

"Quiet, efficient family run hotel, lovely staff, good value and nice breakfast. 10-minutes easy walk from Ryde seafront/Esplanade, and from St John's Road station."
