The Fig Tree Shanklin

Fabulous stay in beautifully decorated with attention to detail hotel. Breakfast freshly cooked and great selection. Quiet location, yet within Walking distance to beach and town. Staff are very helpful Highly recommend Accessible by train or car.

We had a fantastic two night stay at The Fig Tree, the staff were outstanding and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Our room was superb - spotlessly clean, well presented and comfortable. The balcony with a sea view was a lovely treat. Throughout, the hotel looks and feels exactly as a boutique hotel should do: smart, well kept, clean and tastefully decorated. The hotel is very conveniently situated - it's an easy walk into town or to the beach and a short distance from Shanklin Theatre, but also a quiet enough location to make sitting on the balcony or terrace relaxing. We used the hotel bar both evenings and were well looked after by Lucas. We booked our stay via a deal on TPIW and the charcuterie board that came as part of our package was fantastic - one of the best sharing platters I've had, very impressed. Breakfast was also excellent. Good selection of options - toast, cereal, pastries, fruit juice etc in the self service area, which was kept tidy and re-stocked throughout service and the cooked breakfast was tasty and well cooked. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I have to say the hotel surpassed my expectations. It was one of the nicest hotels I've stayed in for a while - I would not hesitate to recommend The Fig Tree and I would be very happy to stay here again. Big thanks to all the friendly, helpful staff members who made our stay so pleasant!

We had an enjoyable three night break at The Fig Tree and were pleased with our choice of hotel. It is well located for exploring the southern part of the island. We stayed in a suite which was spacious and comfortable. The balcony was a bonus, as was seeing the sunrise over the sea. We liked the modern decor and the quality of the bedding and towels. Dinner at the hotel was not available during our stay but breakfast was freshly cooked to order with a reasonable selection and quality. The staff were helpful and welcoming, despite being kept very busy. We had a couple of minor housekeeping issues that were quickly dealt with. All in all, an enjoyable stay and we would return if visiting the area again.
