The hot tub is a highlight, adding to the relaxing experience. While most found the property clean and well-equipped, a few noted housekeeping oversights. The owners are commended for their responsiveness to issues.

Most guests found the cottage to be clean and tidy, but there were several mentions of specific cleanliness issues such as pet hair, full bins, and leftover food, which suggests room for improvement in housekeeping.

The location is consistently praised for being quiet, close to the beach, and convenient for exploring the Isle of Wight, indicating a high level of satisfaction among guests.

Guests describe the cottage as cosy, comfy, and spacious, suggesting a high level of comfort. However, the lack of an information pack caused minor inconvenience to some.

The cottage is well-equipped, with a particularly well-received hot tub. Some guests experienced issues with the TV and BBQ, but the owner's responsiveness to problems mitigates this slightly.

There is no mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

For a taste of history, visit the bustling harbour of Cowes, where you can admire the impressive vessels and watch a regatta or two. Of course, no trip to the Isle of Wight would be complete without trying out some of the local seafood offerings. Wherever you choose to explore, a stay at Palm Tree Cottage is a chance to soak up the best of the Isle of Wight.

Situated on the south east coast of the island, this lovely town has something for everyone! It is home to the longest stretch of beach on the island, extending six miles from the chalk headland of Culver Cliff in the north, to Dunnose Head in the south. This glorious expanse of sand provides excellent bathing, and facilities for all kinds of watersports. Blackgang Chine is perfect for the young and young at heart, with attractions such as the Hall of Funny Mirrors, Giant Hedge Maze and a 100m fast boat slide. The Shanklin Chine is also well worth a visit, with its dramatic waterfalls and deeply shaded paths. Boasting lovely coastal walks and spectacular scenery, Sandown is known as one of the sunniest places on the South coast, making it a perfect holiday destination for all.

    My only suggestion is working instructions should be available for all electrical equipment. We had several issues where we had to phone for help this could have been avoided if instructions were available, especially the TV where login details were not available. Thank you for your help Jo.

  • Tracy

    It was clean and tidy the hot tub was lovely, we used it a few times to help out achy bones after the walking we did. It's in a great location with easy access to the coastal path. The owner was great with her communication. I would definitely return to this property and I would 100% recommend this property to family and friends.

    Few teething issues with housekeeping at check in but these were resolved with help from Jo. The hot tub is so relaxing and the cottage has top notch quality accessories. Would recommend this cottage and we certainly plan to revisit and stay soon...
