Palm Tree Cottage Reviews

Great cottage. Comfy beds. Well equipped . Great location. Would definitely go back
Benjamin
Absolutely loved the property with my two small dogs. Excellent facilities, stylish interior and a superb location for the beach and the surrounding area. I will definitely return if you'll have us.....?
Joseph
Fantastic stay will be sure to book again and recommend to others
Yvonne
We loved the cottage and have already, booked for 2025. My only suggestion is working instructions should be available for all electrical equipment. We had several issues where we had to phone for help this could have been avoided if instructions were available, especially the TV where login details were not available. Thank you for your help Jo.
It was as described and equipped with some nice extras, great location and overall had a great experience.
This property is beautiful, we all loved the cottage. It was clean and tidy the hot tub was lovely, we used it a few times to help out achy bones after the walking we did. It's in a great location with easy access to the coastal path. The owner was great with her communication. I would definitely return to this property and I would 100 recommend this property to family and friends.
Charles
Property was lovely in a great location. The TV was a bit complicated to use but Ed very kindly came over and sorted it out for us. The hot tub was a bonus and very nice garden furniture which is not shown in any of the photographs. The only minor issue we had was the cleaning, bedding, etc was spotless but fridge and freezer had not been cleaned out and there was quite a bit of food from the previous occupant, we also found a plate of cooked chips in the microwave, a bit more attention to detail from the cleaner would be a recommendation. Overall though would thoroughly recommend this property.
Lovely property and location. Few teething issues with housekeeping at check in but these were resolved with help from Jo. The hot tub is so relaxing and the cottage has top notch quality accessories. Would recommend this cottage and we certainly plan to revisit and stay soon...

Also, we accept no responsibility for the acts or omissions of third parties who provide Third Party Other Services to you when your contract is with the relevant third party and not ourselves. Would never have booked with this company had we known. Above is from part of the email received today following complaint. Booked Palm tree cottage on the Isle of Wight this summer and was meet with poor cleaning conditions , bins full up from previous occupants in a heat wave, clothes from previous, food in cupboards from previous. Dirty baking trays, stained cups, dog hair, cobwebs and dust everywhere and unusable bbq .As it was the summer holidays, we couldnt find other accommodation and to come home early. It would have cost another 300 for the ferry. Called Sykes as soon as we got back and provided photos. Was originally told that owners would be contacted , hopefully resolved within a few days or they would take the matter further. Nearly two weeks later and all emails and messages were ignored. Finally got through today and spoke to an arrogant, rude and unprofessional agent who told me he would be happy to hear from my solicitor and Sykes are basically money grabbers. Dont book the cottage or use this company.

Really nice cottage. Had everything we needed.
A clean and very well equipped holiday rental in a quiet postion in Sandown ideal for exploring the Isle of Wight. The housekeeper and owner were very accomodating sorting out any queries and issues
Christopher
We greatly enjoyed the location as quiet yet close to beach, cycle paths and shops. We were surprised that there was no holiday accommodation information pack to say when to put bins out or how to use equipment or house rules. Pleased there was a local map, and kitchen was so well equipped. Greatly enjoyed hot tub and privacy. Would love to return. Thank you.
Andrew
Really well equipped with everything you would need for your stay
We have just returned from our stay at Palm Tree Cottage and reluctantly May I add. We had a wonderful weeks stay. The cottage is cosy, comfy and has everything you need. We had a problem with the TV but we phoned the owners and it was solved instantly and they were very friendly. If I say anything as a negative I would say just a few notes to let you know how some times work just a small thing but would help other than that nothing as perfect and we would love to return one day thank you
Tracey
