STOP right now — do you wannabe a guest in the iconic Spice Girls bus?
One of the Island's quirkier tourist attractions, the Union Jack emblazoned double-decker Spice Bus has been converted into an Airbnb, and you'll really really want to stay there.
Up to three people will be able to stay in the bus, driven around London by Baby, Ginger, Posh, Scary and Sporty in the 1997 film, Spice World.
The bus will make its debut on June 14 and 15 at Wembley Park in London — but don't worry, it'll soon be heading home to the Isle of Wight.
Island Harbour Marina manager, Darren Cooke said the bus, which has lived at the marina since 2014, will head back to the Isle of Wight at the end of June.
Guests will have the run of both floors, although there are no toilet facilities on the bus. However, a separate bathroom will be located a few steps away.
Darren said: "The idea really came from the owner of the harbour, Eamon O'Connor.
"We've had the bus for a few years now but haven't really done anything with it.
"It was getting quite derelict inside."
The bus is now in London, having undergone its transformation in Christchurch.
When it returns to the Island it'll sit at Island Harbour for guests to rent and enjoy.
A stay in the bus will set you back £99 — so what are you waiting for? Say you'll be there.
