Little Treasure with up to 25 percent off ferry Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Little Treasure with up to 25 percent off ferry on Chine Avenue, I honestly wasn’t sure what to expect from the name alone. But this four-star property in Shanklin quickly won me over with its charming character and that incredibly welcoming feeling you get when a place just feels right. The fact that there’s free private parking right on site was already a win in my book — you know how tricky parking can be in these coastal towns. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and you can tell the owners take genuine pride in the property.

The Perfect Shanklin Spot

What really struck me about this place is its location in what’s apparently the top-rated area of Shanklin, and I can see why. You’re positioned perfectly to explore the town’s famous chine (those gorgeous wooded ravines leading to the beach), and the whole area has this lovely, peaceful vibe that couples absolutely adore. I mean, when couples rate the location 9.9 out of 10, that’s saying something — it’s got that romantic, tucked-away feel without being isolated from everything you want to do. The surrounding neighborhood offers the perfect balance of accessibility and seclusion.

The Room Experience

The room itself had all those thoughtful touches that make you feel like you’re staying somewhere special rather than just another generic hotel. Everything felt well-maintained and comfortable, which you’d expect from a property with a 9.5 rating. What I appreciated most was how quiet it was — even though you’re in the heart of Shanklin’s best area, the rooms offer a real sense of tranquility that lets you actually unwind. The décor strikes a nice balance between modern comfort and traditional charm.

Exploring the Area

Being right in Shanklin’s prime location means you’re walking distance from the Old Village with its thatched cottages and that famous chine walk down to the beach. The town has this wonderful mix of Victorian charm and natural beauty that makes it feel distinctly Isle of Wight. You can easily stroll to the cliff-top paths for those stunning coastal views, or head down to Shanklin Beach for a proper seaside experience. It’s one of those spots where you can fill your days with activities or just enjoy the slower pace — whatever suits your mood. Local restaurants and shops are conveniently nearby for your convenience.

Why Guests Love It

Honestly, what makes this place work so well is that combination of excellent location, genuine comfort, and those practical details that matter when you’re traveling. The free parking alone saves you hassle and money, while that top-tier location score means you’re perfectly positioned for everything Shanklin offers. It’s the kind of place where you feel like you’ve discovered something special — not flashy or over-the-top, just really, really good at what it does. Whether you’re planning romantic getaways or just want a quality base for exploring the Isle of Wight, this little gem delivers exactly what you’re hoping for. You’ll find yourself already planning your return visit before you’ve even checked out.

  • Fabulous! – Gallin from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Everything!

  • Perfect stay! Definitely recommend! – Hazel from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Everything! Accommodation was amazing, extremely clean and decorated beautifully. Location was perfect for us and only 5 minutes walk from the beach. Kitchen was well equipped. Bed was very comfortable and amazingly the room was a perfect temperature throughout our stay despite it being one of the hottest weeks of the year with temperatures soaring outside! The private outdoor area was a lovely place to sit in the morning for a cup of tea and evening for a glass of wine! The hosts were lovely and very accommodating. We were provided with tea/coffee, milk, bread, cereal, eggs and even a bottle of wine, which we thought was a lovely touch. We would highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again if we were to visit the Isle of Wight again.

  • Lovely apartment in prime location. – Graeme from Australia (9/10)

    Lovely compact self-contained apartment in a great location in the centre of the historic old village of Shanklin and yet only a 10 minute walk to the beach. Very comfortable bed. Complimentary welcome breakfast pack was greatly appreciated. Pleasant hosts. Only metres to bus stops and a 10 minute walk to supermarkets – a car is not needed here.

  • Comfortable apartment in an excellent location. – Ronnie from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Met outside and immediately made to feel welcome. The apartment was of the highest quality – no complaints anywhere. There was even a bottle of wine in the fridge!
    The location was ideal. With a car, nowhere on the island is more than 40 minutes away. Parking was on the main driveway outside the apartment, which was very handy in a busy town.

  • Superb – Denis from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Little Gem. Shanklin Old Village.
    We have been hiring cottages in this country and France for a very long time and Little Gem rates up with the best, both in facilities and location.
    Paradoxically, it is surrounded by one of the Island 's main tourist locations Shanklin Old Village and Chine, yet is very peaceful and quiet. It is in an extension of an 1830 villa and includes a well appointed kitchen, shower room and large bed-sitting room with south facing balcony overlooking a well designed Sub Tropical garden. Because it is located on a slope a breeze has kept us pleasantly cool when hot and the thick stone walls would keep the interior warm in the coldest of English Winters.
    My wife and I are so grateful for the many kindnesses the owners (Mr and Mrs Green) have shown us and who keep the property spotlessly clean, well maintained and tidy. I have no hesitation in recommending this "Little Gem" and shall certainly return in years to come ourselves.

  • A home away from home. – Rita from United Kingdom (10/10)

    Friendly hosts but not intrusive.
    Close proximity to cafes, restaurants and bus stops.
    Lovely surroundings with footpaths nearby.
