All we wanted and more

A beautiful house full of fabulous art deco. We all felt very relaxed there and able to enjoy the house and all it had to offer. Fabulous location, ideal for all the family to explore the beaches and local towns. We had everything we needed and thoroughly recommend.

Great location with wonderful views. The house and facilities were excellent. Particularly impressed that you were able to lay on a Spitfire doing aerobatics on our arrival.

Amazing house in a beautiful location!

The house is absolutely stunning and feels like a home. We were made to feel so welcome and as there were quite a few of us, they went out of their way to make sure we would have everything we needed. The location is fantastic as its right on the beach. It will be a holiday I'll always remember and I hope I'm lucky enough to visit again one day in future.

Wonderful property for a special celebration

We stayed at Marine Villa for a week at the end of August and had a most enjoyable time with family in this beautiful house. Such a lovely location, fantastic sea views from the first floor and very well equipped for a family celebration. Wonderful period decor in such a charming property, lovely touches added made the birthday celebrations very special. Would recommend for a special family gathering. Thank you, for sharing.

Magnificent art deco house

We were a multi-generational family (13 people ranging from 2-70) celebrating a special birthday. The house was perfect for us all with plenty of bedroom and living space and a lovely big dining table. The bathrooms worked well even though not ensuite. Loads of hot water, crockery, glasses etc. We all slept upstairs and didn't need to use the downstairs bedroom. The gardens and outdoor space were fabulous, we just needed better weather. The locaction is excellent, there is a locked gate straight onto the cliff path with a very popular cafe metres away and steps down to the beach (quite steep return). The owners and manager were extremely helpful. Would wholelheartedly recommend.

Exceptional !!

I had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful house over the new year period. There were a group of us with ages ranging from 17 months to 70 years of age. It catered for us all. The excitement started with the short ferry crossing, which really felt like the start of a holiday, even though it was wet and windy! With anticipation we arrived at the house and it literally took our breath away, there were lots of oohs! And aahs! And remarks like 'good choice' The house was, warm, cosy and comfortable and it didn't matter that the weather was inclement the house had everything you needed, a well stocked library and games. We all loved the art deco furniture and you really felt like you were in an Agatha Christie novel( we did a head count the next morning)! I thoroughly recommend staying here and would like to thank the owners for the lovely complimentary hamper that was left for us and the care that we had during our stay.

Special house, perfect for a group celebration

When I was looking for somewhere to have my sixtieth birthday celebration, I came across this house, and from the description seemed perfect, but just too good to be true. But I can now say that not only did it live up to expectations, but amazingly exceeded them. The setting is stunning, in beautiful grounds on the the clifftop, but it is the house itself that is the star. Big light and airy rooms, with wonderful furnishings and fittings and decor, all in keeping with the Art Deco theme, made you feel you had stepped back into a bygone age. It felt a real privilege to be staying there, and trusted with this amazing place. The big dining room was a perfect setting for my birthday dinner, and the kitchen had everything you could possibly want to prepare and serve the meal. The owner was very helpful and responsive, and on his recommendation we had food for the meal supplied by Deli Tramezzini, which was great, and a cake from Wight Vintage, which was also wonderful. So it was very memorable weekend for us all, topped off by the lovely warm and sunny weather the whole time.

An amazing property for a family get together.

11 of our family visited and stayed at Marine Villa during August 2021. Ages ranged from 11 to 90 and we also had family with accessibility issues which are well catered for. The ground floor accessible bedroom and shower were excellent for our needs. There is one en-suite bedroom, and the remaining bedrooms share 3 bathrooms, this gave our family’s and children a bathroom each which was great. The property easily catered for 11 people, with ample large and comfy bedrooms, large kitchen and multiple ovens, kettles and toasters. The dining room is fantastic seating us all, with room to spare. The house was spotlessly clean. Everything was provided including towels, toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets etc. The garden is lovely, where we breakfasted regularly. We bought two paddle boards whilst on holiday and these were carried up and down the coast path to the local beach on several occasions. A walk to the lower end of Shanklin Chine takes about 20 minutes along the coast path and esplanade. There is plenty of private parking for multiple vehicles. Karen, the house manager met and welcomed us warmly on arrival and went through everything with us. We were lucky to have the master bedroom, wow! This has to be seen to be believed. We envy Laurence and Sharon whom we met today on departure, both lovely and what a house to eventually retire too! We couldn’t find anything that wasn’t catered for or thought of, if we had I expect Karen would of had it covered. Not the cheapest place to stay, but the house is huge, 11 of us still made it look big. The cleanliness and quality speak volumes. Just book it, you won’t be disappointed.

One of a kind

Excellent House. Brilliant Location. 5* Amenities. The owners have put so much attention to detail in this house. The aesthetics are impecable. You feel the depth of the history and character of this building. it is superbly kept up to the highest stds. Literally every signle detail is thought through. It is fully equipped for a large group. They have invested generously to deliver a very luxurious stay, They are passionate about the house and hospitality. It makes the difference. Although, they specify it is a self-catering house, optionality on daily cleaning, toiletries, etc.. would be great. I think this house will continue to age gracefully as it is thoroughly looked after. Many generations to visit will enjoy its warmth, character and unique experience.

Sm..Art Deco

A great house and garden with excellent flow and comfortable bedrooms and living space. Perfect for a large group or family but those with boisterous children might need to sterilize certain areas of valued breakable 'decor' items shortly after arriving. All in all a wonderful example of an art deco house with stained glass windows to die for.

Second stay

We have just come back from our second stay in this lovely house. It had everything we needed to make our time really enjoyable. The location is wonderful for the views and convenience for cafes, shops and the beach. The owners had replaced things, redecorated rooms and added to the facilities since we had been before and the local team checked that everything was OK during our stay. Highly recommended.

It truly is the fantasia of Art Deco which the listing and pictures suggest, but with delightful grounds, a spectacular view, and oodles of space too. The hosts couldn't have been more helpful - a real treasure.

Big Family Stay

Having stayed innShznklin many times as kids we chose the same for a big family holiday. We booked Marine Villa and were not disappointed. It’s a beautiful property in a fantastic position with amazing gardens and views. The huge dining room was great for family dinners and a hilarious Murder Mystery night. A lovely stroll along the cliff path to Shanklin or Sandown and a couple of great cafes and bars literally hundreds of yards from Marine Villa on the cliffs. Will definitely be back. Also note the b&b opposite is ideal if you need extra beds.

Perfect family Christmas, complete with decorations!

This home was perfect for a holiday family reunion. Plenty of space, towels, beds, showers and toilets. Something for everyone - a run down by the beach, a stroll through the amazing gardens, cooking, an easy afternoon reading, or taking in a movie. The dining room is warm and inviting allowing for wonderful family meals and making amazing family memories. Really perfect us all. Thank you so much Marine Villa!

A stunning property in a lovely location.

We had a wonderful stay in the Art Deco House. We went with our children and grandchildren to celebrate our Ruby Wedding Anniversary and it was a perfect venue. The house is really well equipped and the welcome pack was very much appreciated. We would thoroughly recommend it.

Memorable visit

What a wonderful venue for special celebrations and family gatherings. Our stay was planned to celebrate my 70th birthday and Marine Villa enabled the whole family to spend some precious time together on the Isle - ages ranged from three to seventy years but the house suited all. The venue gave plenty of space to be all together for meals etc. - or individually to find a quiet corner to read or just sit and relax. The house is well equipped and the garden is beautiful. Many memories have been made and the time to enjoy each other’s company, aside from what is normally a hectic world, can not be undervalued. All would love to return in the future....and hope to.

A holiday you will treasure

I stayed here with family to mark my 50th birthday. We’d been stunned by the photos and descriptions of the house, but the reality exceeded these. An absolutely beautiful place, as is clear, but this beauty isn’t at the expense of it also being a comfortable, welcoming and very well appointed place to stay. Great location - lovely to pop out of the garden gate and straight onto the coast path - and beautiful views out to see from most of the bedrooms.

A fabulous house for a large family reunion

We were looking for a house suitable for 10 adults and 6 children, 4 generations, 92 years old to 9 months. What a find!!Fabulous. The house was spacious, especially the drawing room; the kitchen well equipped for all the cooking plus all the household facilities for dealing with such a large party. There was a huge garden for the children to play in, and there was seating for eating meals and lounging in the sun. The view from the upper sunroom was superb. Some spent time on the beach, down the nearby steps, others walked the adjoining coastal path. It was also easy to catch the bus to other parts of the Island. Everybody of all ages thoroughly enjoyed their stay.
