    There was nothing I didn't like

    Location was good. The breakfast was really lovely. I really enjoyed that and the hosts when out of their way to be as helpful as possible as I'm disabled and they couldn't do enough for me. Would definitely recommend

    Really struggling to come up with anything that didn't meet our expectations. We were very satisfied.

    We had a wonderful stay at The Drey. Tracy could not have done more to make us feel welcome. The breakfast each day was excellent, we had access to everything we needed and the location suited our needs perfectly for our first stay on the Isle of Wight.

    Nothing not to like - guest house was exceptional, welcome wad warm, and location was perfect.

    The room was well equipped and comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Tracy is a wonderful host and was keen to make our stay a really relaxing holiday. The extra touches - luxury full-sized toiletaries, beach towels and umbrellas to borrow, and plenty of drawer space and hangers in the wardrobe - made our stay even better. We will definitely be returning next summer, and would happily stay for 2 weeks.

    They only thing stopping me giving this full 10/10 is the 16.00 check in! That aside, I would recommend this place to stay.

    Great location. Lovely spacious room, plenty of space to unpack if you're there for longer. Comfy large bed (too many scatter cushions! Personal preference!) Plug socket near bed. Large bathroom, again, plenty of storage drawers. Loved the 2 sinks. Bath mats in front of the sinks are a bonus! Tea and coffee making in the room, along with water. Decent sized drinking glasses in the room. Lovely folder providing lots of info about the island! Host was very polite and welcoming.

    Very clean, tastefully decorated, free parking, near Sandown beach resort and the host was really lovely and hospitable!

    We were very satisfied. It is a ten minute walk to seafront by the Pier, which may not suit everyone, but we had a car and drove to the beach anyway, not least because we needed to get to the dog-compliant stretch which is at the eastern end of Sandown.

    Lovely clean room with a spacious en-suite in a great location close to the station. Very friendly and accommodating host who accepted our small, well-behaved dog. Not much else to say really - it met our needs perfectly. This was a return visit after a great week in 2022.

    The host Tracy is extremely friendly, thoughtful and kind. The property is well located in a quote area, but only 2 min from the train station and 8 min walk from the beach. The room is very clean and contains everything we need. We absolutely enjoyed our stay at The Drey and will come back the next time we visit IOW.
