I would highly recommend Marina Life Homes to anyone looking to sell their house. They made the whole process feel effortless, guiding me every step of the way and keeping me updated throughout. Lisa, Anna and Maria were absolutely exceptional, not only with the sale of my house, but also in helping me find my next home. A huge thank you to the entire team for all your support!

Thank you to Lisa and Maria for enabling us to buy our lovely new home. Although the probate took quite a while to come through, you were there for us all the way, keeping us informed, reassuring us at each stage of the process, recommending an excellent solicitor in Amy Fardell and keeping the purchase on track. Even after we completed, you’ve been quick to give us advice and recommendations and we know that we can email at any time and receive a prompt and informative response. Knowing the Port Solent houses and their history the way you do is a real asset. Other estate agents have very limited knowledge of the Marina Houses as we discovered when we were looking to buy. We know that whatever our questions are, you are always able to use your expert knowledge to give us an informed answer or point us in the right direction. We totally recommend you to anyone looking to buy or sell their house/flat.

A fabulous experience to assist with finding and securing the perfect property for my needs. The process was efficient and time and cost effective and the property gave us exactly what we needed and desired, Communication was professional and swift and we are very happy after receiving our keys today. Couldn't recommend any higher than the five stars we have given them however if i could than i would! Many thanks to Maria and team!

We got in contact with Maria a few years back wanting to move from London for Port Solent. She was so patient with us as we had delay after delay selling our home. However, when we finally did sell, Maria found us our amazing new home which we love so much. Maria made everything so easy and was always there to help no matter what, answering all our questions and keeping us calm and positive about the whole thing. I can not thank Maria and her team enough as we now have the perfect home where we plan to retire and enjoy life.

I have purchased and sold a few properties with this Company and also use them for letting and they are truly wonderful to deal with. Caroline is exceptional because she keeps you fully informed on what's going on and nothing is too much trouble ! Rob maintains and directs the business and always ensures that the rent is immediately paid into your account, so there are no delays. They are undoubtedly a really professional organisation which provide a continuous high personal service and I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone considering selling or letting their property in this area. NEW REVIEW…….28/10/25 Since doing the above review I have now sold another property in port solent with Marina life Homes and the service I received from ALL of the staff was above and beyond and really exceptional. Lisa and Maria walk 🚢 on water as far as I am concerned and deserve an extra special mention. The amount of work they did behind the scenes to ensure the sale continued despite numerous problems that seemed to crop up is a real credit to them. Lesser agents would have given up but they kept progressing the sale right up to the last minute including on the day of exchange !! They actually sold the property with the tenants in situ and that included a separately let garage as well. They earnt every penny of their commission and are the benchmark which every agent aught to seek to achieve. They are FANTASTIC and they work for their clients 1000 % ! I love πŸ’• them to bits πŸ€—

After just loosing my mum and never having sold a house or brought before me and my dad had no idea where to start, the estate agents we was selling our property with in Surrey was awful complete lack of communication and respect, we was so worried we would loose the house we put a offer in for port Solent but marina Lifes was amazing Maria got straight onto the estate agents/solicitors and helped us every step of the way, it was a long process from our side but nothing was to much trouble they reassured us every step of the way. On collection of keys they even gave us a lovely bottle of champagne and was also happy for us. We still receive emails now from them asking if everything is okay we couldn’t ask for better estate agents. They helped contact our solicitor and explained every step of the process to us. When needing to get into the property to measure up it was never a problem. We was always letting him by smiling estate agent. We will definitely be using these for any future properties and highly recommend, thank you so much for your help. You made buying a property so much easier at such a tough time. I couldn’t

Thank you to the staff at Marina & Hampshire Life Homes. The service provided was excellent. We were selling the house from outside the UK and the communication kept us up to date.

Vey pleased with the service provided and would certainly recommend to anyone seeking an agent. Thanks Again !! Cliff Melvin

Thank you to the team at Marina & Hampshire Life Homes, especially Lisa and Maria, for assisting my wife and I to find a new home in Port Solent. Lisa took the time 12 months ago to show us property styles and then 6 months ago we identified the one we wanted (style, location & outlook). Maria supported us and both the vendor and our solicitors throughout the process, as we learnt the purchasing of both a house and a remote mooring is slightly more complex than a regular house or apartment. Angela's and Rob's knowledge of the Port Solent and living in the marina development to be invaluable.

Lisa, the agent, conducted viewings very p[rofessionally and kept us informed as to feedback. We received an acceptable offer and so our case passed to Maria. She went beyond the call of duty by chasing the purchasers' solicitors but more importantly kept our solicitors on her toes, liaised with POSOL, introduced the removal company who acted speedily, and on our behalf, engaged a cleaner. All of this ensured that our sale proceeded to an exchange much to our relief. As for our solicitors, the least the said the better, but without Maria, we might not have got to a conclusion.The whole experience confirmed that good agents are a godsend in getting it done, and we can't recommend Lisa and Maria highly enough.

Although early days the signs that my decision to change was the right one which is born out by excellent reviews on this company from my tenants.

Finally an agent who are refreshing, friendly, responsive to the tenants needs and requirements. A letting agent that finally looks after both the landlord and the tenant. Cannot fault the service provided to us as tenants renting from Marina Life Homes. Professional but very approachable and friendly with it. Happy to help and supportive throughout any interactions. Special mention to Ben who showed us around the property originally, Mandy & Angela who has been our point of contact throughout our tenancy agreements and Lisa for our smooth check out process.

I sold my property through Marina Life Homes. Initially I was concerned as they do not have the wide network of offices and glossy brochures of some other local agents. However they do know their market very well and once they found an interested party they worked very hard to get a deal agreed. Where I do feel they were exemplary was in the time and effort they put into hand-holding the deal and liaising with all the other parties in the chain. We had a few problems with the buyers at the bottom of the chain holding everything up but Maria was on the case on a daily basis chasing agents and solicitors down the chain and keeping me advised. It was quite a stressful transaction in the end but the team at Marina Life were with me all the way and I felt in very safe hands.

Marina Life Homes have helped us renting apartments within the Oyster Quay complex on more than one occasion over the last few years. Always a pleasure to deal with, treating us as valued clients and nothing ever too much trouble.

I can't recommend these guys highly enough. We were selling two properties to buy one, and it was very complicated and stressful, but everything was dealt with by the team so efficiently, and we finally made it over the line in time to spend Christmas in our new home. Special thanks to Maria, who worked tirelessly to communicate with both chains and keep everything from collapsing.

Marina & Hampshire Life Homes were the second agency we used in our attempt to sell our late aunt's park home. Unlike the first agents who had the property on their books for months without securing a serious offer and gave us poor advice on price and marketing strategy, Lisa and the team were professional from the outset and obtained a realistic offer in a matter of weeks. We would have no hesitation in recommending their services.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

If your face fits and fit in with their standards then you are ok, was given a section 21 notification so that they could get rid of my disabled wife and I just they can make more money on the rent, as a result my wife and are homeless and having to move 350 miles from family and friends so we have a roof over our head.the house inspection every 6 months was the same response on the form and was in the property for a max of 3 minutes then leave. The attitude towards my wife was in my opinion with contempt as we believe they did not want cheap properties on their books. Will never use them again, the help we received was minimal as they just wanted us out ontje pretents of doing the property up so they could let the property out at the going rate.

John Β· 2 May 2025

Agent replied Β· 9 June 2025

Dear John, it's rather disappointing for us to receive such a negative review. We have managed this property for 9 years, having taken over the management when your landlord purchased the property. Your landlord now finds himself at a stage in his life to be able to embark upon some major refurbishment and as such, requires the property to be vacant. As the owner of the property, he is perfectly within his rights to do so and as such notice was served. We must refute your comment about β€˜if your face fits”, as you have been living in the property for the 9 years since we took over it’s management. Your landlord has been working tirelessly at the property in the last few days to try to clear what you left behind and his disappointment at the appalling condition in which you left the property is very much apparent. A tenancy is entered into by two parties and the property should be looked after by both parties. We are unable to add some photographs to our reply but they would certainly clarify matters. Negative reviews can be very damaging for any brand and I feel we are well within our rights to be able to protect our reputation by challenging your feedback. That said, we would as with all our tenants, like to wish you the best for the future.

Great experience with Marina Life Homes regarding our new tenancy. Mandy, Lisa and the team were all friendly and helpful, responding to any queries we had along the way promptly.

I recently purchased a boat berth at Oyster Quay through Marina Life Homes. The support I received from everyone from start to finish was exceptional. Particular shout outs to Maria, Lisa, Mandy who all provided fantastic support and advice at various stages of the purchase.
