About this property

Home by the surf at Smiths Beach, Phillip Island

Our family home is walking distance to the popular surf beach at Smiths Beach on Phillip Island.

The beach is patrolled during the summer season from 26th December to 26th January by qualified surf lifesavers, however please always swim between the red and yellow flags.

Smiths Beach has a general store for all your daily papers, bread and milk needs. The town of Cowes is a short 10 minute drive away, where you will find supermarkets, shops and many good restaurants.

The famous Phillip Island racetrack circuit is only 5 minutes drive and the popular tourist attraction the Penguin Parade is a further 10 minute drive for the nightly arrival of the Fairy Penguin.

Smiths Beach is the best spot to surf for kids and beginners on Phillip Island. It has soft waves that are ideal to learn in. There is also a popular Surf shop that provides daily lessons for beginners, including surf board and wetsuit hire.

A very comfortable 4 bedroom 2 bathroom family home with 2 livings areas and 2 TV's. There is also a fully fenced backyard from the street.

Awesome family holiday house with space for everyone

The location of the house is perfect, walking distance to 2 of the best and safest beaches on PI. Ideal surfing for beginners. The house has everything you need to sit back relax and enjoy with heaps of space to spread out. Booking and checking in/out was hassle free. We would recommend to any family and will be back. Thank you Sally and Bill, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
