Perfect for staying with a baby

This apartment is in a great location close to everything in Barwon Heads. We stayed there with a baby and both a cot and a highchair were provided. It's a very comfortable and relaxing apartment which makes it a wonderful location for a holiday. Would definitely recommend staying here and hope to return one day.

Beautiful Getaway

It was stormy all weekend and still perfect to snuggle up and have Parent time while the kids were happy playing by the water or over the road at cafes. Host was incredible and the whole experience, though too brief, was wonderfully comfortable, romantic and relaxed. We’ll love to be back xx
