The rooms are very clean and has nice and helpfull staff. We booked including dinner which we would defenitely recommend. It was very tasteful and good value for money. Especially because the restaurants on the boulevard don't have much to offer. The hotel is very nice for a short stay. Brian & Marielle from the Netherlands. more

A lovely hotel !! Spotlessly clean, very nice food and very friendly staff. Thanks for saving our holiday at very short notice. We first stayed in a disgusting hotel (The Braemar) for one depressing night before leaving. We found the Aqua purely by chance and were very glad we did. So much so that we have got a brochure for... more

The beachfront location with superb views across Sandown Bay makes the Aqua a great base to explore the Isle of Wight from. The hotel is very clean, the staff attentive and most pleasant, and the food verry good. The outside decking makes for a great place to enjoy the views, the sun, and to watch the world go by.

Always helpful, and mostly importantly, service with a smile :) The atmosphere in the hotel was relaxing and the rooms were always kept clean and well serviced, which is testament... more

Fabulous location over looking the sea, nice and clean, good traditional food-all the old favourites and also a good choice. Breakfast was especially good. The live music was ok, tho a bit too loud as the bar is small so you couldn't talk/listen to your family-but this wasn't every night. Haven't been to the I.O.W for 15 years and was... more

We were booked into the Aqua by tourist Info after leaving our original booking very disappointed and considering going home. The Aqua ressurected our holiday for us and left us with pleasant memories of our stay instead of bitter disappointment. Breakfast was excellent: quality food, well cooked, friendly service and a nice dining room overlooking the sea. Staff generally were... more
