  • "We absolutely loved Palm Tree Cottage, it was set in a really convenient position, close to Sandown, the beach and had a lovely park space a couple of minutes around the corner."

    Brilliant for walking our dog. The hot tub was a bonus and it was so relaxing to spend time in the garden reading and having a glass of something. The only tiny issue was the TV, we couldn’t get normal TV channels easily, but saying that we did learn how to watch TV in a slightly different way through Jo’s advice, thanks Jo. Overall, we had a fab time, loved Palm Tree and would love to return next year

  • "Palm tree cottage is an excellent property, well equipped & well looked after."

    It is well located in a quiet area of Sandown, but still close enough to the beach & the bars, shops & restaurants. Whilst there was an initial issue on arrival, this was quickly & satisfactorily resolved. Excellent customer service. The bedrooms were very good, in particular the main bedroom with the ensuite bathroom. We loved the outside area with the hot tub. A little sun trap, private & usually peaceful. The only exception being on our last day when there were noisy builders working at the next door property!!

    My only suggestion is working instructions should be available for all electrical equipment. We had several issues where we had to phone for help this could have been avoided if instructions were available, especially the TV where login details were not available. Thank you for your help Jo.

    It was clean and tidy the hot tub was lovely, we used it a few times to help out achy bones after the walking we did. It's in a great location with easy access to the coastal path. The owner was great with her communication. I would definitely return to this property and I would 100% recommend this property to family and friends.

  • "Property was lovely in a great location."

    The TV was a bit complicated to use but Ed very kindly came over and sorted it out for us. The hot tub was a bonus and very nice garden furniture which is not shown in any of the photographs. The only minor issue we had was the cleaning, bedding, etc was spotless but fridge and freezer had not been cleaned out and there was quite a bit of food from the previous occupant, we also found a plate of cooked chips in the microwave, a bit more attention to detail from the cleaner would be a recommendation. Overall though would thoroughly recommend this property.

    Few teething issues with housekeeping at check in but these were resolved with help from Jo. The hot tub is so relaxing and the cottage has top notch quality accessories. Would recommend this cottage and we certainly plan to revisit and stay soon...

Also, we accept no responsibility for the acts or omissions of third parties who provide Third Party Other Services to you when your contract is with the relevant third party and not ourselves. Would never have booked with this company had we known. Above is from part of the email received today following complaint. Booked Palm tree cottage on the Isle of Wight this summer and was meet with poor cleaning conditions , bins full up from previous occupants in a heat wave, clothes from previous, food in cupboards from previous. Dirty baking trays, stained cups, dog hair, cobwebs and dust everywhere and unusable bbq .As it was the summer holidays, we couldn’t find other accommodation and to come home early. It would have cost another £300 for the ferry. Called Sykes as soon as we got back and provided photos. Was originally told that owners would be contacted , hopefully resolved within a few days or they would take the matter further. Nearly two weeks later and all emails and messages were ignored. Finally got through today and spoke to an arrogant, rude and unprofessional agent who told me he would be happy to hear from my solicitor and Sykes are basically money grabbers. Don’t book the cottage or use this company.

    Dear Donna, Please accept our sincere apologies for what has happened. I can’t speak for Sykes but I can say that I was only made aware of your complaint on Tuesday 13th August. I am ever so sorry that the cottage wasn’t in the condition that it normally is at check in. I have conveyed my frustrations to the cleaners who also apologise profusely that the standard was not high enough. I am also very sorry that you felt you didn’t want to stay there, however I didn’t receive a call or message from you while you were at the property. If I had known about it I could have rectified the problem very quickly and you could have carried on with your stay. As you will see from previous reviews, we take the cleanliness of the property very seriously so we are very disappointed. Once again I sincerely apologise and wish you all the best.
