Beautifully decorated accommodation, spotless and in a stunning location. Very welcoming and the hot tub was a great bonus. Every effort was made by Debbie and Andrew to make our stay with them just brilliant.

Debbie and Andrew were excellent hosts! They were friendly and informative. The accommodation was so lovely and that super king bed! We would highly recommend Little gem to anyone, although I did struggle a bit with the stairs and getting into the shower as it was over a bath I managed as I only have slight disabilities. The jacuzzi was a wonderful bonus particularly if you have travelled from afar. Would we recommend or return? You bet your boots we would!
Great location that's in the heart of the old village part of Shanklin, but it's also quiet, so much so that you can easily sleep with the bedroom window open at night if you prefer a cooler bedroom. The place was spotlessly clean with a well equipped kitchen for its size.
The hosts Debbie and Andrew were very warm and welcoming and provided all the things I needed for breakfast the next morning (bread, butter, jam, milk, eggs, tea, coffee and granola), so that I didn't need to go straight to the shops when I arrived.
There are plenty of nice places to hike nearby, I hiked to Bonchurch along the coastal path, and from Ventnor to St. Catherine's Lighthouse on another, if you enjoy that.
Will definitely be staying here again.

It certainly is a little gem and excellently situated for all the best restaurants in Shanklin as well as a pleasant, if a little steep, walk to the beach.

A True Gem
From the moment we arrived we felt extremely welcome. We were given a warm greeting by the owners. This is an outstandingly presented apartment with attention paid to every detail. The welcome pack outshone anything we have had before. The owners took time to explain the best places to eat and drink.
I would 100% recommend this place to stay as it is ideally located for visiting the Island and the way it is presented. No faults what so ever, a true home from home.
Debbie & Andrew are very good hosts. A small incident dealt with efficiently and without fuss. Apartment is spotlessly clean, right in the heart of Shanklin. Ability for storage of cycles if required. Good welcome pack included, the wine went down very well indeed! We would return, thanks for a good week, we wish it could have been longer....
We stayed for two nights with our 4 year old grandson. Debbie was so welcoming. Loved the little extras that were included to make us feel at home. The place was lovely and clean. Ideal location as no need to go out in the car. Wonderful and would definitely recommend. Thank you
Nice spacious apartment in the heart of Shanklin. Very quiet and close to all amenities. The apartment is comfortable and has everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The garden area is sunny and sheltered. Debbie is a great host and eager to please. Highly recommended for a stay in Shanklin.

Thank you for your kind review and we look forward to hosting you again one day
I cannot stress the word FANTASTIC more with this property. Even during these difficult times, the process was excellent throughout...size, ambiance, decor, cleanliness, location, our 'welcome pack'....it was lovely. On arrival, we were met by the lovely Debbie who explained everything, including the depth of cleaning for our arrival.....and we couldn't fault anything.....and the beautiful weather helped and allowed us to enjoy our private garden.
If you ever think about visiting the region, this property will give you everything and more
THANK YOU from us both
