Find Your Perfect Apartment

Leave the Mainland Behind

One of the most special parts of staying at Shanklin Villa begins before you even arrive.

As the ferry pulls away from the mainland, everyday life fades into the distance. The sea air, the open horizon, the feeling of truly getting away.

Soon after, you arrive at Shanklin Villa – ready to relax and enjoy life by the sea.

And when you book direct, you can enjoy discounted Isle of Wight ferry travel too.

What Our Guests Are Saying

Stylish and welcoming home from home !
Everything has been thought of and the whole place is tastefully modern and spotlessly clean! Been returning for over ten years now and standards have never slipped! Great for multi generational family gatherings and the hot tubs are especially popular

The best of the best
One of the best places I’ve ever stayed in the UK. A beautiful apartment (Eversleigh), with tasteful decor and exceptional comfort levels in all rooms. Did I mention the Spa on the terrace. This wonderful stay left me restored, refreshed and happy. Matt, family and the team at Shanklin Villas were fantastic, they know how to look after their guests and then some. Absolutely loved it. I didn’t want to leave. Thankyou so much for giving me my life back after a very difficult time in the UK. Would definitely stay again. The perfect place for your mind, body, soul and spirit.

Highly, highly recommended
We were so impressed by the apartment. It was spotlessly clean, very well-equipped, ever so comfortable, and nicely located both for the beach and the old village. The welcome hamper was the best we’ve ever received…

Excellant in every aspect, I really can’t fault one thing and absolutely loved the welcome pack.

Brilliant apartment and location
Communication is excellent including ferry booking. Excellent customer service. Met cleaning team on arrival got a great welcome. The apartment is top quality including the TVs are premium brand. The apartment is clean warm and well organised. Location is beautiful near the sea d the beautiful cliff walk. And of course the IOW is a foodie paradise. This was a return visit and we will be back.

Amazing place!
Very clean and spacious apartment. Hot tub was a lovely addition. Rooms are nice and cozy, the beds are comfy. Location is great, complimentary tickets to the Chine was a pleasant surprise. We definitely recommend this place and will be coming back as the island is an amazing place to explore

Tripadvisor 5* Review Oct 2024
We had a wonderful stay.
What a beautiful apartment! Clean, spacious, in a beautiful area. We weren’t expecting an ensuite and a television in each room and it was so quiet you couldn’t hear any noise from the other rooms. If you’re holidaying with friends and/or family it’s a thousand times better than staying in hotel rooms.

Another 5* stay *****
Probably about our 20+ visit . We are never disappointed all villas we have been in have been upgraded on a regular basis . This year some extra touches that were fantastic .
Nothing is a problem to the staff or housekeepers. It’s like going to our 2nd home . Can not recommend enough. No1 place to stay in Isle of Wight
Thank you. Tripadvisor 5* Review, May 2025
