We stayed at ‘Sandy Toes’ whilst my daughter competed in a local basketball tournament. The house was very close to the stadium and beach. The heating was superb, bed sheets very comfy and the house was very homely. Just what we needed for the weekend. Thank you so much for having us. We will keep your home in mind next time we want to stay on the peninsula.

Only thing and this is just nitpicking, locks on the toilet and bathroom doors and the accommodation sleeps right then having eight chairs would be great, otherwise we loved our stay.

Lovely old house, plenty of space for the family and location was great, only a short walk to beach/shops. House had everything needed to make our stay pleasant. Easy communication with the host Leanne. We experienced some wildlife(possum's) partying on the roof in the early hours of the morning which was a highlight:) Being able to park behind closed gates was a bonus.

Wonderful place, easy to get up the coast to Portsea if you want or stay in Rosebud.

Went for a family Long weekend. A lovely warm place, I stayed in the main bedroom had a pleasant bed. The place was nice, clean and quiet. The location was good for us. The beach was close but it was too cold for me (June so we expected the cold). The house stayed warm and we had a great time. Many thanks to the owner and manager.

Amazing Sandy Toes

It was love at first sight! We loved the place as soon as we step on it. It is a homey house, very well decorated, tidy and clean. The rooms are amazing and the different living areas are really enjoyable. Just a few meters to the beach, we will be coming back for sure. Management is amazing, everything worked out smoothly. Highly recommended!

Christmas family stay

In general great ... a couple of concerns that we texted the property manager about but had no reply to during our stay - which were that there was clearly an animal living in the roof cavity (we think, a possum) that made a lot of noise on several nights around 11pm, and also that there was a pre-existing leak in the ceiling just outside the laundry door, as as it rained several times during our stay and the ceiling leaked there, we needed to keep a bucket in place to avoid there being a puddle on the floor below, which was directly in the path to the toilet. Also, we stopped using the sliding doors to the small outdoor patio area as they did not slide freely and we had a real issue closing, and locking them again after opening on the first day. All these issues could be easily remedied. Everything else was great, we had everything we needed in terms of kitchenware etc, the property was lovely and cool and well set up, and the location brilliant, with great parking, on a quiet street. Thanks for all.

Fantastic place for a Family Getaway

Couldn't fault the property. Set in a quiet street with easy access to all Peninsula attractions. This was a great beach house for a family getaway. Meticulously cleaned. The house smelt fresh as soon as you opened the door. The personalised welcome blackboard and chocolates were a lively touch. Spacious bedrooms and roomy living space. The beds were very comfortable and donnas very war. There was more than enough linen and towels for everybody. The kitchen had everything you need including a coffee pod machine and the backyard and fire pit were ideal for an evening drink. I also wanted to say how fantastic Leanne was when we had a slight issue with the internet. Her communication was great and her response was very prompt. She made every attempt to solve the issue as quickly as possible, which she did. All communication with the hosts was clear and prompt. It really was a great few days away and we can't wait to come and stay at "Sandy Toes" again.

Great getaway location

We had a great family holiday catch up at Sandy Toes. The house had absolutely everything you could need. There was plenty of room to move and the beds were very comfortable. Location was central on the western side. Would definitely recommend.

Easy to Escape

Sandy Toes was immediately our home away from home, from the opening gates welcoming us into the immaculately maintain front garden to the lovely message & chocolates awaiting us when we entered the spacious retro/modern cottage. All instructions for amenities were easy to find and use. The welcome was full of useful information. We hope to be back again.
