Easter weekend getaway

We loved our stay! Such a beautiful home, lovely views, and so close to the beach at only a 2 minute walk! The only issue were the pillows that weren’t comfortable as they were lumpy and flat so I’d advise to bring your own. Thank you for a lovely stay! We would definitely stay again!

A fantastic house that had everything we needed and more. The dog had a great little fenced side yard to hang out in when we went out; the kids could easily walk down to the beach and explore the rock pools; it was an easy walk in town but far enough away that it felt peaceful; and it provided a great base to do some hikes in the Otways. The kitchen was really well set up with a good oven, coffee machine, and all the pots, utensils and crockery you could need for a long term stay and lots of cooking at home. The bedrooms and beds were clean, comfortable and quiet. Communication from Sharee was perfect and check in/check out was seamless. It's one of our favourite houses we've ever stayed and we'd loved to come back again one day.
