Little Haven Reviews

Kathryn

Our second stay at Little Haven and just as wonderful as the first. The house is a beautiful place to stay and is in such a great location. The hot tub is such a treat too!

Stephen

We were first greeted by steps littered with rubbish, then grass which had not been mowed for some time with long dandelions and daisies etc. some time into our stay received a text from the house manager asking if we were in a the gardener had forgotten his key. Grass was eventually mowed but we had to leave the gate unlocked. Under the settee cushions there was All sorts including food crumbs, The bathroom door handle was insecure and under rim of toilet was foul.

This accommodation was perfect for our stay. Everything was well thought about lots of added extras including basic foods, dvds and games. Close walk to the beach. The hot tub was fantastic and very clean. Can't fault it at all, we will use this accommodation again if and when we visit in the future.

Louise

Lovely apartment. Decorated to a high standard. And very close to shops. Beach and pubs. Very spacious for a family of 4. They left a lovely welcome pack. Hot tub was amazing and Maintaince person lovely he came at least twice in the week to check on it. Lots of board games and dvds to entertain on rainy days. My only feedback was cleaners arent great. Under sofa was missed. Fridge needed a clean and the Shower Edges need a bleach. Not enough right now to bother me because the whole place looks brand new. but over time And a hairdryer would be lovely and a broom. However we will be coming back. We had a great time here. One of my favourite apartments used so far in the island.

Oliver

Great place to say, super comfortable.

Kathryn

Great accomodation really good location, near to Shanklin shops and the beach. Flat was very welcoming and had everything we needed. The hot tub was a lovely treat. Our son loved the Xbox in the bedroom. Would recommend and will hopefully be back next year!

As all previous reviewers have commented the apartment is perfectly located within easy walking distance to both the Beach and the Town, tastefully furnished with modern appliances with manuals! and highspeed fibre broadband, which proved useful and reliable. Homely and well thought out a perfect base to explore the island and its many attractions and history. The Hot Tub proved very enjoyable and just a perfect way to winddown after returning from a long day at The Portsmouth Historic Dockyard on the mainland, only a 10 minute flight on the Hovercraft and a short Taxi ride to get to. Overall an excellent 2 weeks and we were sad to have to go home. Thank you both for making it feel personal.

Beautiful property with lots of little touches that make you feel at home. Bed was a little too soft for us but the long walks and sea air followed by hot tub to rest our weary bones helped us to sleep. Fabulous location close to both beach and Old Town. The owners included a lovely book to show you how to use equipment, local area and attractions worth visiting. We will definitely stay here again!

Geraldine

We had a lovely stay at Little Haven. It was a very clean, well equipped property and was very tastefully decorated. It was definitely a home from home. It is situated very close to the beach with the option to walk or use the public lift down to the esplande. We would walk down and get the lift back up. The parking space at the apartment was a bonus too. Little Haven had a large garden and hot tub which we used several times during our stay. Its great for family's, we had 2 teenage girls with us, who enjoyed the computerTV in their bedroom for playing games on and watching movies. We would love to return to Little Haven and see more. There is so much to see on the island. Thankyou to the owner for letting us stay in her holiday home and for replying so promptly when we had any questions.

We had a lovely time staying at Little haven, it was home from home with everything you would wish for and on your holiday and more. Very convenient for the bus route to explore the island. Loved the walk down to the Old village along the sea front and through Shanklin town.
