Excellent experience for my parents

Booked this stay on behalf of my parents and they had only good things to say about their time here. They found Howard to be most accomodating and the property itself to feature just about everything you could ask for!

Cosy and Luxe Boutique Stay

Had a wonderful stay with a friend while we were in Phillip Island for a work trip! Howard was so lovely and very helpful both before and during our stay. The place is incredibly cosy with gorgeous decor and top of the line modern appliances throughout. As advertised, the architecture of the cottage is incredible; while there isn't much square footage, the space is cleverly-designed with beautiful quality materials and nothing feels cramped or short-changed. The garden design was stunning as well, and the bed and linens were very comfortable! I only wish we could have stayed longer! 100% will be returning ASAP!
