Great apartment for a beach holiday! I love staying at this apartment complex, this is my second time. It’s quiet, has great views of the beach and is perfectly located for a quick swim or a walk to the shops and restaurants in Cowes. I had a solo getaway but it’s a great spot for families or couples. The apartment was clean, safe, and had everything you need including cooking facilities, large tv and aircon for hot days. Really enjoyed my time here.

Cowes off season was very peaceful. The property is in an excellent location. The owner responded promptly to a query. Beds were comfortable. The verandah did need sweeping and cleaning and the kitchen could be a little more generously equipped but overall an enjoyable experience.

MotoGP weekend

Property was presented professionally - very clean . Proximity to Main Street and entertainment was terrific. I actually think I stayed in the same apartment a number of years ago when we were coming down for the Island Classic motorcycle event. Highly recommend- thanks to the host Con.
