A luxurious oceanside retreat awaits for family getaways and gathering with friends at the beautiful Marisol, set in St Lawrence, just outside the seaside village of Ventnor on the Isle of Wight. Immerse in wanderlust escapism as you cross The Solent by ferry and arrive at this ocean-embraced isle, before taking the leisurely journey by road to South Wight. Our stunning homestay resides above Steephill Cove, promising a beautiful New England-style exterior and vast windows framing ocean vistas. Inside, a curated array of open-plan living spaces, cosy corners, and five bedrooms propose space to gather and unwind. Meanwhile, underfloor heating throughout, a wood burning stove, and a private outdoor swimming pool ensure every season is a dream. Recline within the elegant, ocean-inspired interiors and savour sun-kissed moments in the sea-view garden, all within the most spellbinding setting. Less than half a mile away is the golden shawl of Steephill Cove Beach overlooked by charming cafés, while all around the island is an array of captivating spots to explore.


Living

Adorned in soothing tones and coastal features, endless moments of calm reside in this serene living space. Offering a selection of sumptuous spaces to recline, gather beside the irresistible ambience of the wood burning stove. For cosy film nights, a large, Sky TV with a Samsung soundbar provides perfect evening entertainment.

A separate snug resides next to the lounge, featuring a comfortable corner sofa and far-reaching ocean views. This charming space is also home to a Sky TV with a Samsung soundbar.


Eating and dining

Marisol's open-plan kitchen and dining room is a sanctuary for the lovers of culinary arts, welcoming balmy sea breezes during the warmer month through the glass doors opening out onto the garden terrace and dining area. Imbuing coastal calm are tranquil tones, complemented by pops of colour from potted greenery. For those slow, aromatic moments, a Sage Barista coffee machine awaits for fresh morning lattes.

The perfect space for family and friends to come together over lovingly crafted cuisine, a dining table resides beneath pendant lighting in the dining area. A beautiful farmhouse-style table of solid oak with seating for up to ten offers plenty of room for feasting. Dine indoors to savour the atmosphere, or head outside during golden hour for dreamy alfresco moments.


Sleeping and bathing

Marisol is home to five bedrooms sleeping up to ten guests, each room a luxurious space to rest and reset.

Situated on the first floor, the master bedroom is carefully curated with a calming colour palette and a statement wall, featuring a balcony with mesmeric ocean views, which is shared with the second bedroom. Uncover a super-king bed is dressed in the finest linens, along with a walk-in wardrobe and dressing table to stow treasures, and a comfy armchair. Completing the picture is an exquisite ensuite bathroom with brown marble tiles and both a shower and freestanding bath.

The second bedroom is a stunning sanctuary with nautical nuances, sweeping views and a shared balcony with outdoor seating overlooking gardens and the sea beyond. Twin rattan bedside tables sit either side of a super-king bed, swathed in the highest quality linens. An armchair rests beside the window, and on the other side of the room, built-in wardrobes await for storing belongings. This space benefits from a lovely ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower.

Also on the first floor, the third bedroom is a picture of perfection with characterful ceilings and an alcove window offering views over the ocean beyond. Just perfect for friends or little ones, it features a super-king bed that can be transformed into two singles upon request. For moments of creative expression, a writing desk and chair sit in front of the sea-view window, and a separate armchair promises lingering moments of calm.

Marisol's fourth bedroom is another space ideally suited to friends or children with a sage-hued super king that can be converted into twin beds as required. Soothing tones embrace the walls complemented by tasteful ornithological artwork, and an alcove window shares picturesque views over the garden. A walk-in wardrobe promises generous space, and an armchair and separate writing desk and chair offer somewhere to enjoy restful repose and reflection.

The third and fourth bedrooms share a family bathroom decorated with terracotta tiles and complete with a bath with an overhead shower.

The fifth bedroom resides on the ground floor and promises somewhere serene to relax and recharge. Earthy tones and XV Stripe Kelp Forest wallpaper take inspiration from the stunning shorelines of the Isle of Wight and radiate coastal luxe.
