Kasbah

Isle of Wight


Kasbah brings a burst of North Africa to the streets of East Wight. Chunky wooden furniture and colourful furnishings give bedrooms a Moroccan feel; some also have partial water views. The downstairs bar is lively – if you're not a night owl, avoid Thursday to Saturday, when the bar is open until 2am.
