Villa Amanti Apartment - an apartment that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms
Villa Amanti Apartment is a stunning period beach front apartment located in the striking Victorian spa resort of Ventnor on the Island's south coast. Sleeping 4 guests in two bedrooms; one king-size and one twin bedroom, this stylish beach-fronted home has been renovated to a high standard with soft tone decor and elegant touches. Off road, gated parking is provided on the drive. This unrivalled accommodation forms the entire ground floor of this distinctive landmark Italianate building. Including a front patio and a two-level rear terrace with outside furniture, this is a perfect beach front escape in a prime position in what is a highly regarded and picturesque coastal destination.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful apartment. Comfortable, clean, homely, conveniently located opposite the beach and close to local amenities. Fantastic customer service from Island Holiday homes and the owners of the property. We were visiting family and immediately rebooked for the following year. Highly recommend.
What a fantastic week ! The villa was positioned in a fantastic position with sea views and literally less than 1 minute from the beach. Very accessible private parking which is a massive bonus. The villa is absolutely beautiful and quirky too. It contains everything you need for a very special stay. The only thing that was a little bit of a problem was that the water wasnât very hot but we spoke to the maintenance man so hopefully this will be sorted. The outside areas were lovely, secure and spacious which is fantastic if you are taking your dog with you. On arrival there was a lovely bottle of wine and a big bag of crisps which was very welcome! Thank you. Overall a very wonderful stay and I would recommend anyone who visits the island to stay at Villa Amanti.
The Villa was beautiful, situated in an amazing position on the Esplanade and provided every comfort necessary to make our stay wonderful. We all (three generations) loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. An added bonus was that we could park the car on the drive without searching for a space on the road. The local shops/restaurants/cafes were excellent and everyone was so friendly.
Our only criticism was that the previous occupants had not cleaned the crockery/cutlery when they left so we had to run everything through the dishwasher first. This is the reason for the lower score for cleanliness otherwise it would have been 5 as the towels, bedding etc., were spotless.
Villa Amanti was the perfect place for my husband and I to stay - with our children and grandchildren staying nearby.
Excellent and convenient location - comfortable - clean - quiet - bonus of off street parking.
We would definitely love to come back.
Thank you also for the most welcome bottle of wine and crisps!
Villa Amanti is so centrally located that nothing in Ventnor is too far away. While we were lucky with the weather, the flat was so nice that being shut in on a rainy day would have still been a treat. I would certainly stay at Villa Amanti again and would quickly recommend it to others visiting the Isle of Wight.
This villa was beautiful it's in a great location opposit the sea really handy for the shops and restaurants . It's was comfortable and had everything you needed .dog friendly with a secure garden to the rear of the property with seating . Lovely property with sea views
We enjoyed our stay at Villa Amanti immensely. The apartment is beautiful with lots of space and is very well equipped. Being able to park in front of the villa was an added bonus. The welcome bottle of wine was much appreciated. Thank you for a lovely stay.
Disappointing holiday which I would never like to repeat.
Unfortunately Villa Amanti was a huge disappointment. The bottom of one toilet bowl was extensively covered with lime scale and stained brown with faeces.
Light bulbs were out in three areas of the apartment - all the lights were out in the ceiling of the master bedroom - light out in corridor - several lights out in the sitting room.
Stone floor tiles had not been vacuumed or mopped so I was walking on grit.
Villa Amante is in a prominent location on Ventner Esplanade. The apartment is very much as shown in the photographs. Itâs a great size and very comfortable. We found it to be very quiet which considering its location next to a couple of bars was amazing. The Villa has lots of storage space so it doesnât get cluttered.
One of the biggest benefits is the private parking, (Unfortunately it does mean that your view is of the car rather than the sea, but that canât be helped)
The apartment is well equipped with a washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher.
The absolute best bit of about the villa is its proximity to the beach allowing you to just nip across the road and sit on the sand. Its perfectly located for the bars and restaurants in Ventnor esplanade we almost had no reason to leave Ventnor.
The Villa Amanti apartment is a really nice property, iiked the layout, I enjoyed my stay. The leather sofa is the lounge area is dangerously comfy. Sat outside in the front terrace area in the sunshine Sunday afternoon. Big outside seating area at the back but as the weather was a bit testy on other days, did not have the chance to sample it. Within easy walking distance of various eateries, restaurants, pubs... literally a stone's throw from the beach.
I'm a non-driver but it was a stress-free journey from Ryde by bus to Ventnor (bit over an hour), and I idled in a nearby pub for lunch and drinks until check-in time.
Recommend The Hambrough and Smoking Lobster for eating out.
Villa Amanti is in a great location and itâs lovely to see and hear the sea from the living room. It is conveniently located for the beach shops and nearby walks. The parking space on the drive is a bonus.
When we arrived the apartment was not very clean, smelt of pets, lots of long hairs in the bathroom and stained cups in the kitchen. The cleaners had not replenished the toilet rolls and hand soap and we had to go out immediately and buy these from the local shop which was disappointing.
In the main bedroom there is a smell of damp which is due to the built in wardrobe having mould and damp in it. This is clearly evident and needs addressing.
Excellent location, disappointing and tired interior
This building is iconic in Ventnor and has been beautifully restored externally, a perfect location on the beach front which we have wanted to stay in for many years. Unfortunately the interior accommodation was disappointing with tired decor, soft furnishings and furniture that all needs attention, plus the smell of damp/drains was quite apparent on arrival. Grubby walls, lampshades, cushions, seating and headboards, plus damaged furniture inside and out, a damaged freezer compartment in the fridge which didnât work at all added to the disappointment. Thankfully the weather was beautiful so we could enjoy being out and about, as the TV isnât connected to the internet so there was not much choice other than freeview. Therefore cost we feel for this property isnât great value for money, and reading the description the âluxury and high qualityâ statement is misleading. We wouldnât recommend unfortunately.
We stayed at Villa Amanti for two weeks. The location is perfect right opposite the beach with the luxury & convenience of your own parking space . Couple of pubs/restaurants literally next door. The villa itself needs just a tiny bit of tlcâŠthereâs a damp patch on the kitchen ceiling, the drainpipe outside needs a new bracket attaching it to the wall. A gate in the small fence by the seating area would be very helpful too. The people upstairs werenât there until our last night but it is quite noisy when theyâre there but I suppose given the age of the building thereâs not much soundproofing! All in all a fabulous stay in a really lovely apartment & we hope to stay again.
