About Us - Isle of Wight Stays

Welcome to IOW Stays — Your Island Escape Starts Here

At IOW Stays, we believe holidays should feel personal, comfortable, and effortlessly memorable. Founded on the Isle of Wight by Darrel, our mission is to offer more than just a place to stay — we create welcoming spaces and thoughtful experiences that connect you to the magic of the island.

What began with one holiday chalet and a fantastic customer experience has grown into a locally rooted business offering handpicked accommodation with heart. Our properties are carefully maintained, fully equipped, and designed to help you relax from the moment you arrive. From peaceful mornings on your private decking to cozy nights in with Wi-Fi and a smart TV, everything is set up for comfort and ease.

But the IOW Stays difference goes beyond the doorstep.

We offer exclusive discounts on ferry crossings and hand out carefully curated vouchers for island attractions, restaurants, and hidden gems — all chosen to give our guests something a little extra. Whether you’re here for a romantic break, a family getaway, or just a change of pace, we’re here to help you enjoy the Isle of Wight like a local.

We’re proud to partner with the people and places that make the island special, and we love nothing more than welcoming new guests and returning friends.

IOW Stays — stay local, live easy, and make every moment count.

5 star stay at the island retreat. We enjoyed a weeks stay here and loved it. The caravan held more than the essential things, including a coffee machine, air fryer and TV. The oil heaters kept the caravan warm whilst we were out, so the caravan was always nice and cosy for us on return from days out. The caravan was clean and tidy and an easy check in and check out system.We also thought the welcome pack was a fab idea as we hadn’t yet done a food shop before we arrived so it was nice to have a hot brew after a long journey.There was so many things to do in the area in general but most importantly activities and walks were dog friendly so our gorgeous pup Ronnie enjoyed his holidays too. We could have definitely had another week here, we will be booking again.

5-Star Review for Isle of Wight Stays in SandownWe had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Isle of Wight Stays caravan in Sandown! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The caravan was spotless, well-equipped, and very comfortable, with everything we needed for a relaxing break. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beautiful Sandown Beach and close to the island’s main attractions – it made exploring so easy and enjoyable.We especially loved the outdoor deck area, which was ideal for enjoying our morning coffee or a quiet evening. The hosts were wonderful too – responsive, friendly, and thoughtful, even leaving a lovely welcome pack with some local treats!It’s a perfect spot for families, couples, or anyone looking to unwind by the sea. We’re already looking forward to booking our next stay. Highly recommend Isle of Wight Stays for a memorable, stress-free getaway! 🌊🌞
