This was our second stay on Fortune, and we loved it just as much, if not more, this time! It is a very well-maintained, comfortable, beautifully decorated and deceptively spacious houseboat which has absolutely everything you need. We love cooking and the kitchen is well equipped, and the open plan design and stunning views make it the perfect destination for a break with family and friends. Our age range was 20 - 65 yrs old, and there were eight of us on board plus our beloved elderly black lab! We enjoyed a week of fabulous weather, and it is so relaxing being out on the deck enjoying the sunsets, meeting the ducks and swans who are regular visitors and just watching the world go by. Thoughtful welcome gifts from the owners who check in to make sure that all is well, they really care. We have been visiting Bembridge for years now, it is our happy place, and this is our favourite holiday rental by far. We were all so sad to leave Fortune, and we hope to return again soon. We highly recommend!...

Our stay at fortune was fantastic. I can't recommend the property enough. There were 7 people staying on the boat including adults and teenagers and there was ample room. Than main living / dining area is spacious with amazing views over Bembridge Harbour, The Duver and over the Solent to Portsmouth. The location is perfect for water sport access which was great for our teenagers. The property was extremely well presented and the owners contacted us to make sure we had everything we needed, which we did. Thank you so much for a truly memorable and comfortable stay on Fortune. We will be returning as soon as possible. ...

We had a fabulous holiday on Fortune! Beautiful houseboat and such a relaxing setting. We have stayed in several holiday rentals in Bembridge over the years and this is by far our favourite! We all loved it, including our four legged friends! Will definitely return. ...

This is the second visit to this beautiful houseboat for ourselves and friends. Location is stunning, very comfortable and the decor is really lovely, with a ‘sea creature’ theme throughout. A great deal of thought has gone into the design and furnishing of this property. There is nothing you could want for. We would highly recommend it....

Our third stay on Fortune in the first week of October when dogs are allowed on all the IoW beaches. Two of us lived there over 60 years ago for a short while and love revisiting all our old haunts - so many lovely places to go to and Bembridge and Seaview are great for pubs and restaurants. When we walk through the unassuming front door we are still surprised into a broad smile at the utterly fabulous design and views from the main deck. A brilliant piece of architecture that is a real pleasure to stay in. The owner and Classic are always helpful if something needs attention and we hope to be back again next year. There are only three of us so we have masses of space but feel Fortune is so unique it is well worth it!...
