This is a great old school beach house. It has room for lots of people and has good access to the beach. Walking distance to the local cafe and the nearest supermarket is amazing. Some updates needed with the bbq, dishwasher and oven, but is well setup for guest needs otherwise.We had a lovely stay with a couple of families with kids and imagine in summer it would be even better!

A comfortable property, homely, a bit old world but everything you need is there. Lovely big front and back yards especially for a pooch. Close to the beach for some walks and not far from the shops in Balnarring.

Girls Weekend Away

5-8 of us school friends have a weekend away each year together (somewhere different - 4hr max radius from where we all live.) It’s a great opportunity to catch-up properly & for all of us to have a little R&R away from home.

A1!

Although we cld only stay 2 nights, this property was “a breath of fresh air” in more ways than one. A beautiful mostly native garden, shrouded with shrubs & trees, many birds quiet neighbourhood, the perfect setting to enjoy our BBQ meals. This home was spotless💥 Inside is a very well organized home with sensor lights near steps, kitchen items easy to find, 2 modern bathrooms, comfy bedrooms, It’s a pleasure to find everything works!! Thankyou - a delightful home in every way . Liz Baker & family.

A good house at an excellent location

The location is excellent and the house is good and very well equipped. However, there are two problems. One is that the door in the last bedroom does not have any device to prevent the wind opening it (which is very easy to fix). The other problem are the 3 stairs leading from the living space into the kitchen and the entrance. Both I and my son managed to fall there.

Hi Moshe Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the location and found the house well-equipped. We appreciate you bringing the door issue to our attention; we'll look into adding a device to prevent it from blowing open. I'm also sorry to hear about the stairs and the falls you experienced—that's certainly not the experience we want for our guests. We'll make sure to assess the safety of that area. Your input is invaluable in helping us improve, and we hope to welcome you back for a more seamless stay in the future! Regards Mornington Peninsula Rentals

Girls getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Spacious enough for us plus one dog and good position. There were also some handy pantry staples available. Would have been helpful to have kindling and firewood in a dry area. We stayed in winter and needed to purchase wood kindling and matches for the fireplace. There are heaters but one of the reasons to book this property was for the fireplace.

Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy

Below expectations

There was too much secrecy about the location of the property until the last minute. The property did not live up to the photos. The bathtub plug didn’t work properly, which was a let-down because the bath was a key need to unwind. There were no instructions for the stove and not enough toilet paper even for three people! And never in my 40 years of rental experience have we had to vacuum and clean a rental property that ought to be cleaned by highly professional cleaners.

Hi Harb, thank you for your review and feedback, we are sorry you did not enjoy your stay at the property. The property is a holiday home not a hotel, hence toiletries are not supplied but enough toilet paper is left to get guests through the first night/day. We ask guests to leave the property as they found it, neat, tidy and clean, once again it is someone's holiday home that they have kindly allowed us to rent out to others, not a hotel.
