Isle of Wight Accommodation

The Isle of Wight is famous as a summer holiday destination, being the UK sunshine record holder year after year. Consequently there is a wide variety of holiday accommodation available to suit all tastes and budgets.

Many of the Isle of Wight hotels are situated along the sunshine coast of Sandown and Shanklin and are aimed at beach holidays and family holidays. For the business or leisure traveller there are hotels located in all the main towns of the island. See our Isle of Wight map for location details.

Isle of Wight bed and breakfast accommodation ranges from large catered businesses that in times past would have been known as hotels, but are now called bed and breakfast accommodation if they do not offer an evening meal, to small farmhouses and family homes that offer bed and breakfast in their own home.

For holidaymakers seeking Isle of Wight self-catering accommodation the choice is from superb converted barns in wonderful country surroundings, to holiday cottages, to bijou holiday chalets right by the beach, ideal for that family holiday with small children. Many of the self catering chalets are on holiday parks that offer swimming pools, restaurants, entertainment and shops.

For holidaymakers bringing their own accommodation there are many camping and touring parks, from simple tent sites by the sea to award-winning touring parks with all facilities.

Why don't you hire a classic VW Campervan and travel around the lovely Isle of Wight. Go green, come by public transport and pick up your van from Isle of Wight Campervan Hire - a great way to see the island.

So whatever holiday accommodation you are looking for you can find it in our Isle of Wight Guide, established in 1996. We have an accommodation search on every page so just select the type of holiday acccommodation you are looking for and the area you wish to stay and we will list all the matching accommodation.

There is also an advanced accommodation search which enables you to find accommodation that is open all year, welcomes pets, or is a no smoking property. The keyword search will match all listings containing that word e.g. pool will list all accommodation with pool in their listing.

Finally, if you don't know much about our fabulous Isle of Wight click on the Map links for an interactive map of the Isle of Wight. All the accommodation is listed and coloured pins denote the three accommodation categories "Hotel and B&B", "Self Catering", "Camping & Touring Parks".
