Caribbean Corner, Priory Bay, Isle of Wight
We had a really lovely break at Caribbean Corner which is in a beautiful location just above Priory Bay and an easy walk along to Seaview. Everything was as described and the outdoor hot shower was great!

2 bed chalet near the beach and tiger sanctuary
Leanna was the perfect host, always answered my questions and nothing was ever too much. Her place is perfect for a quiet break and the beach which is only a 10min walk is so wonderful. Would defo recommend and stay again. Thanks Leanne

Seafront 3 bed house perfect for friends/family.
This property is amazing 2 balcony's front of house during day rear of house to catch late evening sun, Lovely and clean and everything you need at hand also how many times have rented a place and expect you to survive a week one one toilet roll not here over 10 in the 3 toilets . Lovely view if you can't be bothered to do the 2 minute walk the the beach front then sit on balcony and watch the day go by, absolutely loved our week.

New Forest, Seaview
Wonderful house in a terrific, peaceful location. The house and gardens are idyllic, and we loved spending time in the hedged gardens in the evening sun after playing tennis. The house is within easy access of all the best landmarks of the New Forest and also bang on the coast. The interior of the house has great style and charm and is a great place to spend time in.

Beach Lodge on West Wittering Beach
You couldn’t wish for a better location than a minute’s walk from arguably the most beautiful beach in southeast England. We were invited to check in early on a sunny day and arrived to find milk thoughtfully provided. Comfortable sofas and bed, and a secluded garden. We’ll bring small children next time!

Solent View Hill Head dog friendly holiday let
Carey is always responsive and happy to help as much as she can, this is our second stay here and it doesn’t disappoint, clean and everything is thought of, will definitely stay there again 😊

'Crab Shack' Luxury Yurt with Harbour & Sea Views
I visited the Crab Shack for a long weekend with my Daughter (8) and our little dog... We had a wonderful time! The Crab Shack is a very comfortable place to stay, well located for a short walk into town, with all the amenities we needed. The shower and toilet facilities, a very short walk from the yurt, were impeccably clean and the water runs fast and hot in the showers. The local independent pubs in town are friendly, serving good food and drink at a reasonable price, and we were lucky enough to find live music being performed each night. Would strongly recommend taking the short (20 minutes) drive to West Wittering Beach for a beautiful day out... Pizza from Pecorino in East Wittering was fabulous too.

Horizon View Come and sea for yourself ….
Beautiful location on the edge of the beach. Amazing view from sitting room and main bedroom. Light and airy house with all amenities and more. Debby answered all queries immediately. Highly recommend.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Beautiful 3-bed flat by the sea with use of pool
The property is absolutely immaculate. It is more spacious than the photos suggest. The beach is literally at the end of the drive. Such a convenient spot. And the beds!! Well, if you don’t sleep well here then you won’t sleep well anywhere. Great place. Great host. Great time.

Sunset strip
We had a wonderful few days here. The view is addictive! We stayed up way too late tracking vessels coming in and out of Southampton. The chalet is spacious and beds very comfortable. It was a bonus to be able to park the camper van right behind the chalet and to bring two small dogs. Sadly weather was too poor to make use of the pool this time. Perhaps we missed the instructions but we had troubke finding no 77. Advise looking at the site plan as you enter the holiday park. All in all a very good stay.

Lodge by the sea to cater for all ages
Great place, well kept, everything works well, beds comfy, felt like a safe place, would definitely go again!

Beautiful 3 bedroom holiday home with sea view
We had a great stay in Louisa’s caravan. The location was great, right next to the swimming pool, restaurants and beach. The place had all we needed for a great week away and the weather was great too! Day trip to the beach at West wittering was great.

Starfish Lodge Discounted ferry sailings available
We had the most wonderful stay at this lodge on the beautiful Isle of Wight. Tucked away in a peaceful caravan park just a stone’s throw from the sea, it offered the perfect mix of relaxation and seaside charm. The location couldn’t be better—waking up to the beautiful sea view and being able to stroll down to the beach in just minutes was absolute bliss. The on site pool and playground were the perfect end to a day exploring for our kids, all the staff here were friendly, helpful and couldn’t do enough to help. The accommodation itself was spotless, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. Everything we needed was there, from towels, a well-equipped kitchen to cozy beds and a lovely lounge area with the most stunning uninterrupted sea views . It felt more like a boutique coastal retreat than a lodge! Can’t recommend this place highly enough—whether you’re after a romantic escape, a quiet solo retreat, or a family break by the sea, this gem has it all. Thank you Rob :)

5* waterside luxury boathouse - pool & log-burner
Catharine was an amazing host and Driftwood is absolutely beautiful in a perfect setting for our group get together. The hosts were fantastic and couldn’t do enough to help, even accommodating an earlier check in for us. Could not recommend this stunning home enough!

Balcony On The Bay - FREE Car Ferry 3+ nights
We loved the apartment - it was spotless, spacious, and in the most gorgeous seafront location. Hosts had fab communication too. We love the area and will definitely visit again in the future ☺️

Vibrant Seafront Home With Seasonal Pool
We had a great family meet up before Xmas. Although the weather was cold the place was great for a walk along the beach and being able to see the sea was great. Must be even better in the summer.

Boutique Hideaway Hayling Island
Thanks to Wendy and Barry for a lovely stay at The Hideaway. It is a delightful little place and they have thought of every practical thing needed for a comfortable stay, including some welcome treats! We have no hesitation in recommending The Hideaway for a break in Hampshire.

Ocean View, a family home right on the Sea front
Beautiful house in a perfect location (as long as you don’t mind a bit of noise from passing traffic and pub next door). The view of the sea is stunning and the house was spotlessly clean and fresh. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Palermo Villa, South Beach
A great location, easily walkable to Southsea Common, hovercraft and Gunwharf Quays. This property is unusual in this area in that it has dedicated parking spaces outside the house. My friends and I loved the layout set over several floors. Every room was spotless and the amenities were as described. We used the outside seating in the private courtyard a lot and the little personal touches, including a birthday card, were appreciated. Any questions were answered by Nicola very quickly. Would definitely stay again.

Toms House 15B (First Floor Flat) Hayling Island
We’d give this place 6 stars if we could! We had a lovely stay in this beautiful apartment. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, and we all felt right at home! The toys for the kids was a great bonus too. If we return to this area we will definitely be rebooking with you. Thanks for a fab stay.

Lovely 2 bedroom flat by the sea
Roomy 2 bed apartment. Lovely garden included to sit out in. Responsive host. Fabulous location a few minutes walk from the beach

'Woodside' Modern Spacious 2 bed Apmt, Own Parking
My family and I stayed at Peter's flat for the Easter bank holiday weekend. The flat was spacious and clean, and the location is perfect for anyone visiting Southsea/Portsmouth. I would definitely recommend this flat and would book with Peter again if I return to the area!

Beautiful 2 Bedroom, Seafront apartment
Absolutely loved our stay at this beachfront Airbnb! The view was stunning, the space was clean and cozy, and the location was perfect for a relaxing getaway. Highly recommend!

BEST location, big seafront boutique home 3 bed
We decided on a last-minute trip to Portsmouth and Helen was very responsive and helpful. The apartment was great - spacious, comfortable, and clean. The main bedroom in particular is huge. All the beds were comfortable with nice linen and pillows. The front garden area is a nice addition on a sunny day! It’s about a 45 minute walk to the historic dockyards (the main purpose of our trip), but we enjoyed the area around the flat; there are lots of nice restaurants and bars, plus the amusement pier for the kids. After we returned we realised we forgot something in the flat and Helen very kindly agreed to post it back to us. Thanks!
