Vacation rentals with beach access in Southsea

Our host Beth was great, very proactive and extremely helpful. We stayed in the 'The coach house', which is a beautiful, serene retreat with breathtaking views. We highly recommend staying here If you are looking for a stunning, private and convenient base for your adventures on the Isle of Wight.

Lovely clean and comfortable apartment right by the sea and a pleasant 40 minute walk to the historic dockyard. The apartment was spotless and very comfortable for a short stay for two people, with plenty of pubs and places to eat to choose from in the nearby area, we would definitely stay there again!

Great location between Southsea and Portsmouth old town.

Fantastic place with a wonderful view. Clean, sleek decoration and everything you might need (but no soap!). We enjoyed watching the buses, trains, and ferries buzzing in and out. View of the HMS Warrior too. Easy to access, clear communication and car parking. A great place to stay.

Great position, view and rooms. Thanks

Perfectly placed on my favourite street in Portsmouth. Great bars and restaurants. Beautifully presented accommodation. Everything we needed in the kitchen. Short walk to Portsmouth. We will definitely stay again.

The flat was very comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. The balcony is wonderful and the location excellent. Loved the views and I got a great photo of the sunset over the Portsmouth skyline. A perfect place to chill out, and I will be back.

I booked this for my engineers who are working in the area & they were very happy with it. Will definitely stay again.

Sarah’s house is perfect for a stay at the Witterings. Located a few mins walk to the beach and close to other area such as Itchenor and Bosham. We stayed as a family with young kids and it had everything we needed, from the games room to the garden. It was a bit rainy when we stayed , but that didn’t stop us venturing out. I can imagine in the summer, the house would be even more perfect. Sarah was super helpful too. The house looks even nicer than the pictures.

Travelled to Island for my wife’s aunts 80th birthday and 60th wedding anniversary celebrations. House was just as described, clean, spacious, comfortable and ideally located for seafront and high street. Extremely well equipped kitchen plus welcoming items including sourdough , butter, preservatives , milk, orange juice and shortbread. Spacious lounge with planting of seating. My wife and daughter loved the soaps, shower gels and fresh smells in the bathrooms. I thoroughly recommend this property and would re book if returning to the Island Tips: Grab the double room on 3rd floor if you prefer medium to soft mattress and watching tv in bed! We felt the middle bedroom mattresses were a bit on the hard side for us personally but this would not stop me from rating this property 10/10.

Amazing stay in Selsey! The beachside view was breathtaking, and the modern design made it so relaxing. As a group of couples, we settled in the moment we arrived. The peaceful surroundings and stylish, creative vibe made it feel just like home. The games on the shelves and well-equipped kitchen with quality cutlery were great essentials for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone!

What a wonderful house , we thoroughly enjoyed our stay . My wife and two young boys loved everything about the house .

What a lovely house - fabulous location - 2 minutes walk to the beach, the garden is a little sun trap and the balcony was lovely bonus to watch the sunset from. The house was clean and it’s great to have a place that has a sofa that accommodates everyone comfortably - we all wished we could have stayed for much longer. Louise was really helpful with all the check in details. We had just the loveliest stay - there were 6 of us, my brother and sister and their partners, along with my husband and I - we try and get away twice a year and have done for years and we all agreed that this was one of the nicest stays we’ve had - the weather help for sure as it was glorious, but the house and location. played a bit part too. Thank you so much.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home on the Isle of Wight. The house is very new and in a great location — just a short walk to the beach! We stayed as a family with kids and our dog, and everyone had a fantastic time. The rooms were tidy, the bathroom was clean, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The heating and WiFi worked perfectly. We’d definitely love to come back again next time!

We had a lovely short break on Hayling. House was beautifully laid out, clean and accessible, child and dog friendly! Although we were only there for 2 days, it would have been good to have things like salt/pepper, cooking oil, kitchen paper etc available, especially for the price. Limited things like tea towels available for use and with a child and a dog, you need more than one sometimes. All that being said, we can not fault the property, the view, the hosts, the information provided to us. Extremely helpful information folder available with not only instructions of everything you may use, departure instructions but local attractions including restaurants. One local place we had been to before and decided to revisit due to the welcomed sunshine was Inn on the Beach, great place 5 minutes up the road! Thanks again for our mini break!

We had a lovely stay, the house is perfect for family get togethers being open plan and is very well equipped (plenty of crockery, cooking stuff etc). The location is amazing, with direct beach access from the garden and amazing views out to sea. Would definitely recommend

We loved our stay at Jackie’s place. It was spotlessly clean and very spacious and comfortable. The bed was comfortable with good quality bedding too. Within walking distance of Hamble Quay and lots of great restaurants and pubs. We will definitely return! Thanks again for a lovely stay!

A fantastic spot to stay in for exploring Southsea and Portsmouth. It is a matter of minutes from the beach and the restaurants in Southsea - the location could not be better. The apartment was stunningly decorated, lovely and bright and airy and so warm. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back. Thank you!

Excellent stay for work at Goodwood event. Plenty of parking outside and the house has got everything we needed. Very peaceful location and great host.

This is only the third time we have had a getaway through Airbnb and again not disappointed. A great apartment situated within easy walking distance of East Wittering Beach and around a 6min drive or so to West Wittering Beach. The apartment was super clean and very homely. We had a two night stay and must admit think we got lucky with the weather. Blue Skies and not a cloud do be seen. Allison is a great host, friendly and responsive and everything was as described.. Would definitely book again as this place is great and an idyllic get away, for a mini break from city life. Thanks Allison!!!

Beautiful apartment spotlessly clean plenty of towels central location and wow what a view in general perfect couldn't recommend highly enough and will definitely look at staying again 10 out of 10

It was great staying at Beshley's place, just 10 mins walk from Canoe Lake and the beach, so was very convenient.

We had such a lovely long weekend. The flat was spacious and impeccably clean. The beach was 30 seconds walk away, and there were other beaches and rock pools within a 5 min walk. Our two daughters, 6 and 9, loved the beach, going crabbing, having a barbecue on the beach, and getting ice cream from the ice cream shop. We’ll be back!

Just perfect for what we needed, large and comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms, small and secure yard to allow dog out in. Quiet area and building, a plus for a fireworks nervous dog on NYE!
