About this property
Lower Chine Apartment
A contemporary apartment on Shanklin Esplanade, with a private balcony and sea views.. (Lift Access).
All on the Second Floor:
Open plan living space.
Living area: TV, Freesat, DVD Player, French Doors Leading To Balcony
Dining area.
Kitchen area: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Dishwasher, Washing Machine
Bathroom: Bath, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Cot, highchair and stairgate. Balcony with outdoor furniture. On road parking (at cost 2nd March-30th October); unloading at the door. No smoking.. So close to Shanklin’s sandy beach that you can hear the waves, Lower Chine Apartment is a spacious, open plan apartment perfect for a family break on the Isle of Wight. Set on the second floor of The Adelaide, the apartment has an open plan living, kitchen and dining space, so there’s plenty of space to enjoy the views and relax.
Step straight from the living space and onto the balcony to while away an afternoon enjoying the views across the beach and out to sea… and when the sun sets, it’s the perfect spot to sip on a glass of bubbly while the kids enjoy the flatscreen TV with Freesat.
The master bedroom makes a welcome room to retreat to after a long family day on the sand, and with a kingsize bed and en-suite bathroom it’s a welcoming place to unwind. The second bedroom has a bright, airy décor and twin beds, so it’s ideal for the kids to nod off to dreamland after a busy day making sandcastles.
With Shanklin Beach just steps away from The Adelaide, a stay in this friendly apartment is all about making the most of time on the sand and the nearby attractions. The beach backs onto a classic seaside promenade, so you’ll find plenty to keep the family entertained within easy walking distance.

We enjoyed our stay in this seafront apartment.
We enjoyed our stay in this seafront apartment. Great location, at the quiet end of the Esplanade but close to good places to eat. The apartment was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. We brought basic supplies for our short stay but the fresh milk, tea, coffee etc which were provided were very welcome. Highly recommended- and think it would be perfect for a holiday with children too.
Well equipped apartment right on the seafront. Parking was easy on seafront or in nearby car park but payable as noted in the description. Nice pubs/restaurants nearby. Uphill walk or use the lift to get up to the town.

A modern apartment clean and simple but with all you need. So close to the beach. We bought a 7 day isle of wight parking ticket. The only thing not included is parking. Good for cycling and an easy 40 minute walk to Sandown pier am long a pretty sea front.

Lovely apartment in a great location with every thing you could need right on your doorstep. The apartment has everything you need for your stay. The only thing that needs some attention is the shower, it could do with new grout and unblocking as the water is very slow to drain away and the tray fills up quickly. It would also be a great idea to have a cold tap in the car park to be able to remove any sand of children's feet before entering the apartment block. I would really recommend staying in Lower Chine and hope to return soon myself.

A fabulous flat for a stay.
A fabulous flat for a stay. Great sea view from the balcony & the lounge. Comfortable bed & the place is fully equipped with everything you could need.
Plenty of parking whilst I was there, November, but having lived in shanklin in the past, I know how hard it is to park along the seafront in season, even in the 2 car parks, so worth bearing in mind if you don't like waiting for spaces.
I would certainly stay again.
