Welcoming, bright home with plenty of amenties, including a kitchen with a good range of cooking equipment, games shed out the back, and plenty of communal spaces capable of seating large groups comfortably. Hot tub was a treat.
Stayed here with my family and everything was amazing. It was super close to everything you could need.
Everything in the house was well thought out and it felt super spacious. Everyone kept commenting on what an amazing find it was. Would definitely pick as my number 1 spot to book again!
Beautiful property. Play room at backyard for kids. The outdoor (covered) spa was perfect and everyone enjoyed it. Property is walking distance..not too far from beach or amenities.

Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad you enjoyed the property, especially the kids' play area and the outdoor spa. It's great to hear the location was convenient as well. We'd love to host you again in the future!
We had a great time with our friends in your beautiful place.Specially the kitchen was fully equipped and having everything you need to have for preparing a meal.
Fantastic location, walking distance from shops and beach, but also felt quite private. Plenty of heaters for the winter month and the hot tub while it was raining outside was perfect! Cool gaming area with ping pong and fusball table.
We really appreciated the little notes around the house which explained bits and bobs. Check out procedure straight forward. Highly recommend
Plenty of beds, almost all had a separate room, for a house than can sleep 12, not enough couches, but we made do with the 3 seater anda couple of chairs.
Nice an close to shops with RSL across the road
Had a great time, would book again
My friends and I go away every year and this house was by far our favourite :) the hot tub was a fantastic.

Underwhelmed
Unfortunately I don't have many positive things to say about this property. We frequent Phillip Island almost every year and since our go to holiday house is no longer available we tried this one. We are a large family of 7 adults and 6 children (10,9,8,4 2.5 and 1 years old). Upon entry this house it felt smaller than the photos in many aspects, the dinning table was only catering for 6 people which made dinner time interesting. The lounge space was absurd for the amount the house can hold with one 2-3 seater downstairs and a 3 seater upstairs with child like miniature furniture also placed up on the second floor. There was no comfy place to sit and relax with all the seating being uncomfortable. The kitchen was poorly stocked with adequate pots/pans. We had to buy our own fry pan and large soup pot to get by. The induction cooker was not ideal to cook on and the BBQ being only a two burner meant we had to cook in batches. The beds were extremely uncomfortable with poor quality mattresses, doonas and pillows. The Ottoman was still broken (as a previous review states). Everything furnishing wise seemed to have come from kmart, Ikea or alike and it was clear in that not much felt sturdy or comfortable.
There was a terrible smell in the kitchen and when we looked behind the fridge we found mouse poo and a open cavity, and more disturbing was the deodoriser to mask the smell (indicating this is an ongoing problem) this was reported to the property manager and hopefully the owner fixes this as the smell is disgusting and takes over the kitchen dinning area. Lastly the upstairs balcony should not be used as we had two adults walk out on it and it shook, I'd be surprised if this passes building code. We did not use it after this.
Location wise it was about 20 minute walk to shops and across from the RSL.
I hate to be so negative but we really couldn't see many positives in this property at all and definitely would not book again.

Hi Shaye,
I'm sorry to hear that you didn't have the experience we'd have wanted you to. With respect, a large number of the points you have raised are not correct, but perhaps the best thing to note is that we understand different people have different expectations. For example, we expect a home is left in good condition and neat and tidy after someone stays.
The house is so amazing! It was clean and tidy, and so much space. It was absolutely stunning. The location was just perfect, we walked to Cowes town every day and it was a short drive to every where we wanted to go. The hosts are so nice and made check in/check out so easy. We will 100% be coming back!
A Few issues, but a lovely place to spend with friends and family
Check in was very smooth and the entire house was very clean and bright. Did have an issue with the fold out bed being broken- we reported it and had no response, which was a bit tricky as we had a large group.
Also found that the dining areas didn't really accommodate the large group size, but we made do with what we had.
Spa and table tennis table was a big hit and everything else was really great!
