A brilliant place to watch the world go by - be it electric trams, horse trams, ferries, or the ever changing weather (in our case including Storm Agnes and a double rainbow too!). Such stunning views! Also enjoyed exploring Sunnyhill Glen (with evening illuminations). Only two of us stayed, which was perfect, might be a tad cosy with five!



A beautiful house in the perfect location. The service was great and the house is very well equipped

We enjoyed our stay and I will recommend, specially for the location that is by the promenade and public transport.

We had a wonderful stay at Santa Rosa, the views from the window were amazing, looking at the sea was great for our wellbeing and it was nice to watch the comings and goings of people on the beach below. The location was great because we could take the nearby tram to the north, the bus, or walk into the town centre. The house was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The island was lovely, lots of things to do and nice beaches, waterfalls and quirky little trains. We will definitely come again.

We stayed for a week and the house was great, very comfortable and had everything we needed.
The road outside is extremely dangerous we had a little one in a pram and you had to be very careful.
The outside area is the house needs some attention especially the decking and the steps from a health and safety point.
Overall lovely stay.



The heating was a hassle.

The house was cold when we arrived, and the heating remained a hassle throughout our stay. Moreover it was a bit too basically furnished for my taste.



Beautiful views, well equipped. Dangerous road.

Ok the house was clean, well equipped. Big leak thru windows (as reported to you). Really needs fixing as ruining wooden floor and of course does impact negatively on stay. The worst aspect is the dangerous road which we feel should be pointed out more. Definitely not a place for children or those with mobility issues, need to be quick across that road. Many thanks

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Santa Rosa, and thank you for your helpful feedback about the window which was fixed immediately after your stay. We do advise in the property description about children and the busy road, the location features stunning views over Douglas bay so we do feel the score was a little unfair in this respect. We hope it did not effect the enjoyment of your stay too much. We would look forward to welcoming you back again in the future! Island Escapes Team

Great view

Great location and great view. Easy free parking on promenade. Enough has been said about crossing the road in front of property (scary). Needs bigger beds.

Ideal accommodation for our extended family, All our needs were provided for, including food and drink in the fridge. The view of the bay was stunning and the children enjoyed watching the boats. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property for a holiday on the Isle of Man.

We have this house for the TT race week and it proved to be perfect, the location was spot on, views over the bay breathtaking and the house was presented excellently, we would all come back again and highly recommended by us all.

Loved the sea views through the two large windows to the front of the house. Very comfy beds,The property was very clean, clean bedding plus having two toilets were handy, Be careful when crossing the road outside the property as it’s very busy, glad they have a blind spot mirror to help you cross, The only gripe I have is that it says you can park on the seafront, we came in two cars but didn’t travel out a lot, as there were too many camper vans taking up most of the spaces we counted eleven camper vans one day, so when we came back after a ride out we were struggling to find a place to park for two cars, probably it was because it was the week before the TT started, but I would have liked to have parked closer to the property



Great holiday in fantastic property

Great house, fantastic central location overlooking Douglas Bay. Spotlessly clean on arrival. Provision of numerous items like bread, milk, butter, cheese, coffee, tea, the list is endless. Ample nearby parking. Great place to stay.

Enjoyed our stay in this well located & well kept cottage. Great views of the bay from the lounge windows and main bedroom. 20-30 min walk into main town area. Watch the road outside the property as it is located on a blind bend. TV took some working out but got there in the end



Really lovely holiday home

We had a really lovely week staying in Santa Rosa. We arrived late on a Sunday night and really appreciated the milk, bread, cheese, butter, tea, coffee and biscuits etc left for us. The house was beautifully clean and very thoughtfully furnished with everything you could need. The table in the lounge folds out and there were 6 dining chairs provided. So nice to eat your breakfast with an undisrupted view of the sea! The kitchen was very well equipped even with oils and spices, washing up liquid etc. The beds were comfy and there were 3 good sized rooms, 2 double and 1 single. One double and the single have views of the sea and electric railway. The spacious bathroom has a fantastic shower and there is a second toilet upstairs. The house is located a little way up a steep hill opposite the entrance to Summer Hill Glen. You have to park on the promenade which was not a problem, but bear it in mind with transporting luggage and it might be more of a challenge for the elderly. You need to take care crossing to and from the house as there is no pavement outside the house and it's by a bend in the road, due to the steepness, vehicles tend to go by past pretty fast. There is a mirror to help you see vehicles coming down but be careful with small children and slower moving people! The house is a great location about 5 minute drive along the prom from the ferry, it's very close to the electric railway, you can see it from the lounge window. it's about a 20/25 minute walk to get to the main shopping street. We had lovely meals at China Town restaurant below the house and Mojo's chippy on the prom. Would really recommend this lovely house, we really miss waking up to the sound of the sea! Island Escapes were brilliant at communication and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them and Santa Rosa.
