Perfect location, balcony is great to watch the sunrise and relax in the morning sun watching the world go by. It's right by Shanklin Chine which is pretty and an easy way to get up to the old village (if you're there for a week buy on the first day as a ticket is valid for 7 days). Other big pluses: beds are comfy and the parking being onsite is so so handy!Cleanliness was generally OK but we did need to wash mugs/plates before being able to use and several had chips. The toilet in the main bathroom had not been flushed and had been left rather unpleasant and there was no toilet roll provided in the main bathroom. We did however, really appreciate that hand-wash was provided in both bathrooms and kitchen. Washing up liquid and sponge, and tea/coffee/hot choc/biscuits/sugar were also provided which was great.An overall great stay and we would definitely recommend!

We had a fantastic holiday at Shanklin. The Culver View in the Adelaide building is the perfect location - right across from the beach. We loved sitting on the balcony and watching the world go by. The beach is wonderful - sandy and calm waters for children. Undercover parking is great! The flat has everything you need. Comfortable beds. Although— we think the flat could do with a deep clean. Especially the carpets which have definitely seen better days! Highly recommend this flat. We will return!
