We thank you for your patronage Joanne. So very pleased you enjoyed all the high quality amenities at Boroondara, including the stunning alfresco outdoor entertaining area and the pool. It certainly is an exceptional holiday home with a location that's hard to ignore. Walk to Sorrento Park, Sorrento Hotel and Sorrento Village; let's not forget the beach! We do hope to have you all stay once more. Best wishes from the staff at Beach House Rentals, Mornington Peninsula.
We were very pleasantly surprised stepping into this beautiful house. The pictures in the ad did not do this property justice. Absolutely stunning home, stayed here for a weekend with my work team and will be coming back with my family for a longer period !

Our families loved this beautiful home, the huge spaces upstairs and downstairs, the pool and outdoor entertaining areas, the stylish furnishings, comfortable beds. It is so well kept and looked after. The lovely welcome gift bag with slippers and wine from Beach House Rentals and their communication was excellent. Nothing to fault. We will definitely visit again.

Reviewer Comments:
This property meet our needs perfectly. It slept 11 family members comfortably, catering for both adults and children. The house was spacious with separate living quarters that ensured we didn't feel on top of one another. The dining table was also the perfect size, catering all 11 of us for our Good Friday lunch and Easter lunch. The BBQ was in good condition and the oven was a dream. The fridge was a little on the small side as we needed to cram our food in and there were nio towel hooks or rail in the upstairs shared bathroom which was a little annoying. Unfortuntely the pool was solar heated so it wasn't warm enough to enjoy, although the kids still braved the cool waters and had a dip. Location is perfect. Set in a quiet and gorgeous street, the house is a short walk to the beach, to Millionaires walk and to Sorrento Hotel, which offered up some night life and it was a short walk/drive to the St Marys Catholic Church which we visited for Good Friday and Easter Sunday mass.Overall, the perfect place for our family to create some memories and we will be back!

Reviewer Comments:
Lovely house, however disappointing to learn we did NOT have access to the Garage, This was not mentioned in the advertising? Parking is very very tight and road is one way.No wardrobe space in the downstairs bedroom...all cupboards locked, hence had to live out of my suitcase for a week!Cupboards locked in the kitchen, No Cupboard space for food supplies, had to create bench space. No condiments, toiletries supplied? No food storage containers? Had to have garbage removed and maintenance called in to replace globes in bedside lamps - For the price this property cost us, we felt very cheated!
Beautiful well presented house in a great location. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and beaches.
