You won't find better hosts anywhere. They went way beyond good service to make our stay comfortable. Charming, large rooms and you can fall asleep to the surf every night. Very clean, great food. Highly recommend Shoreside if you're traveling to the Isle of Wight.

Wonderful place with great hosts

Andrew and Jo are the perfect hosts. They were very welcoming. The rooms were very comfortable, very clean, and modern. Breakfast is very good, with warm pastries to take away with us. The location on the sea front is perfect. Definitely a place we would visit again.

Fantastic hotel with great friendly service.

Fantastic week, we have been to Shanklin many times but have never enjoyed it as much as our stay in the Shoreside Inn, the rooms were big an spacious with great sea views. Fantastic breakfast every morning. Andy and Jo the owners could not do enough for all the guests staying with them. We will defiantly return.

Jo and Andy are a lovely couple and cant wait to go back!

From the moment we arrived Andy and Jo could not do enough for us. They gave us advice about local places to eat and visit. The room was clean and comfortable with a wonderful view of the sea. Breakfast was well prepared and could not be faulted. Would definitely recommend and return.

Shoreside Inn

From the moment we arrived Andy was there making sure we had everything we needed not just for our accommodation but for our plans while staying on the Island, nothing was too much trouble. That’s enough about Andy, now Jo, based on the breakfast Jo provided, I’m sure we would have happily eaten an evening meal there, the quality of food was excellent and alway delivered to our table to whatever specification we requested, lovely people and great accommodation to use as a base to explore Isle of Wight.

Exceptional stay

We really couldn’t fault our stay here. Jo and Andy are super friendly and very welcoming. The room was lovely (we had the suite with the bath with a view!) Bed was comfy and the bathroom was huge! Breakfasts on both mornings was top notch. Everything cooked perfectly by Jo with fantastic service ftom Andy. We had the full English and eggs Benedict.The freshly cooked pastries are a nice touch too, packaged to take away for elevenses. Will definitely return if in the area again and highly recommend staying here if you are visiting the island.

Amazing

As a seasoned traveller and working in culinary myself, this has to be one of the best experiences in Hotel/B&B's I've ever had. Andy & Jo treat you like family from the minute you park the car, Andy greets you and insists on carrying your bags, he has a wealth of local information to assist your visit to the isle of Wight, a very polite couple who could not do enough for us. The room was impeccably clean and tidy and very spacious with an extremely comfortable bed, As for breakfast, it is obvious Jo takes pride in her work, it was outstanding, very clean(no greasy plates here) and well presented, everything was cooked to perfection with care(especially fried & poached eggs). they even accommodated all our food allergies & intolerances. A must stay if visiting the island, we'll be back.

Jo and Andy made us feel so welcome, great communication. Andy gave us a map of the area and marked the map for us, according to our interests. The room was excellent, the jellybeans a nice touch. A great bathroom and super sleep in bed. For big tea drinkers like us, we actually had enough tea and milk! Amazing. Breakfast was made to order by Jo, with a pre option of fruit and end option of home made take away pastries. We would have stayed another night but were committed to a wedding. If we return to UK we will be back to Shoreside.

From the minute we arrived we were made to feel so welcome. Jo and Andy our the most wonderful hosts. Our six nights away was perfect. From Andy’s hosting skills to Jo’s most amazing cooked breakfasts with specials and take away pastries to keep us going through the day, who could ask for more. Their extensive knowledge of the island gave us plenty to think of doing each day of our visit and we were sad to leave. With all of the things the island has to offer for a holiday, the main reason for us looking to go back is to be able to stay here again. 10 stars if I could give them. Thank you Jo and Andy.

An excellent B&B and very good value.

This is a marvellous B&B. As well as the obvious advantages - location on seafront, free parking, quiet (adults only) the rooms are modern, fresh and well-appointed, we had a fantastic bathroom too. Breakfasts are made to order, good choices, beautifully cooked and presented and every day we were offered a freshly-baked pastry to take away for later. However, the big selling point for this place has to be the fantastic welcome by the owners- friendly and helpful but not intrusive, nothing too much trouble and very knowledgeable about all the places of interest on the island. Service over and above all expectations and a genuine interest in delivering the best holiday experience for their guests. Wish all B&Bs could be this good, it helped to make a brilliant holiday. Go there if you get chance!!
