Weekend Getaway

Jan was a fabulous host who has been effective as a communicator and offered extended check-in/check-out during the weekend to help with our stay.The place is adequate and clean with rooms that allow bright sunlight during the day. Proximity to shops, beach and Arthur's seat make this a great spot as it is also tucked away for privacy and quiet residence.Great place for a family or friends to go away from their regular busy lives.

Near perfect stay

Nearly perfect stay! Great location, very clean, lovely fully fenced surrounding yard, fully equipped kitchen (minus microwave, not a big deal)! Would be great for kids with the downstairs play area. Only thing that would've made it better were if extra towels were provided, but we'd just bring our own next time. Would love to be back soon!

About the host

Hosted by Jan Phillips

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

My family had a beach house in Dromana for 30 years and Dromana was part of my childhood. When the property was sold, as my parents found it difficult to maintain, I knew that I always wanted to buy a home in this special place. In 2007 I was lucky enough to find a house that ticked all the boxes. My idea was that I wanted to create a house that I could enjoy as well as others. I wanted it to provide everything for a holiday so that guests didn't have to load up their car with 'just in cases'!!! I have endeavored to set The Gulls Dromana up as such a retreat and look forward to sharing it with you.
