Top Freshwater Bay Hotel Reviews

voco Southampton by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A great stay as usual, rooms are lovely and dinner and breakfast excellent. Staff are friendly and helpful, we always stay here when we are in Southampton"

Leonardo Hotel Southampton

8/10 Good

"Clean room although over the top amount of bleach used in the bathroom. Bed comfortable but pillows not. Annoyingly located in the middle of a roundabout, difficult to access and no parking. We were on floor 2 and the other family of guests thought it totally fine to use the hallway as a play area and shout at each other outside our room. (Not the hotels fault but demonstrates the type of customer). Cheap and cheerful last minute booking. Not going to be rushing back! Nice bar though."

Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good

"Super comfortable bed Reasonable sized room Dated but clean"

The Crown Manor House Hotel

Harbour Hotel Southampton

10/10 Excellent

"Very efficient check in and out. Clean room and surroundings. Evening meal at HarBar excellent. Breakfast servers a little loud"

Albion Hotel

8/10 Good

"Disappointed with to find a whole large bowl of yogurts out of date ( not just one but all were out of date) The lady at dinner greeting us had a bit of an attitude problem and was not friendly Receptionist blamed the staff which was very unprofessional for a hotel of this calibre, they could do an awful lot better We were not the only ones to complain, receptionist indicated that their student staff had gone back to college The clearly is a middle or even a senior management and business model issue that needs addressing"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Freshwater Bay?

The best area to stay in Freshwater Bay is directly within Freshwater Bay itself, particularly along the coastal road and surrounding streets.This area is the heart of the village, offering direct access to the pebble beach and stunning views of the iconic chalk cliffs, including the famous Arch Rock and Stag Rock. You'll find a selection of local eateries and accommodations concentrated here, making it very convenient for exploring on foot.Couples looking for a relaxing escape will find Freshwater Bay ideal. The proximity to scenic coastal walks along the Tennyson Trail and the opportunity for water activities like kayaking or paddleboarding directly from the bay make it a superb base for a tranquil and active getaway.Families with children also appreciate staying in Freshwater Bay due to its direct beach access and the relatively calm pace of life. The beach provides a natural playground, and the nearby Freshwater Lifeboat Station offers an interesting visit for all ages.

When is the best time to go to Freshwater Bay?

The best time to visit Freshwater Bay is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is warmest and most suitable for outdoor activities.During these months, the average temperatures range from 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F), providing ideal conditions for enjoying the beach, coastal walks, and water sports. The longer daylight hours mean more time to explore the stunning white cliffs, such as those at Tennyson Down, and the iconic Freshwater Bay itself. Families often find this period great for a holiday, as the calm waters are inviting for swimming and rock pooling, and local attractions are fully operational.Spring (April to May) and early autumn (September to October) also offer pleasant conditions, with fewer crowds and mild temperatures. These shoulder seasons are excellent for couples or solo travelers who prefer a quieter experience while still enjoying comfortable weather for hiking and exploring the Isle of Wight's natural beauty.
