Perfect Family Holiday

Great house for a family of 6, everything we needed in a nice quiet area and only a short walk to the beach.

Great jumping off point for Apollo bay exploration

House is well located for exploring the coast, had nice layout for hanging out, comfortably slept our group of 4 adults and 2 young children. Note you do need to bring your own bed linens so if you’re traveling from out of the country this may be a challenge.

Good Stay

We enjoyed our stay. The property was very comfortable and practical. Having to supply linen was a nuisance given the tariff and being the only property not to supply linen on our five week trip staying at 8 other properties.

a lovely home

The beach retreat is super comfy and cozy and has everything you need for a break with Teenagers in wintertime. Technology wise it excels with Google Chrome and great WIFI. Although they could provide more of the pantry essentials, the kitchen is very well equipped.

Great location and views of the ocean

Very nice and quiet neighborhood but convenient to the center for grocery and food. The house is comfortable and we enjoyed the stay. One caution is that it does not provide linen and bedsheets. It’s stated in the details but we glanced over it. It costs extra to request linen.

Nice place

The place is really nice. It has all the things you would need for a short (and possibly long) stay. I believe wifi access wasn't listed on the website but the house has a decent wifi speed. The only think I would be a bit careful about is visiting this place over very hot days as there seems to be only one aircon unit upstairs which might not cool down the two rooms downstairs. In our case that wasn't a problem as we needed to heat the place and apart from the aircon unit there was a very nice heating unit (mobile) for the ground floor.

Neat and tidy home

The views from the balcony are lovely. You can just see the ocean! Apollo Bay didn't give us very good weather so we weren't really able to utilise it but definitely would have! The weather also meant we couldn't really walk anywhere from there but it was walking distance to shopping, eateries and the beach. Very relaxing holiday.
