Loved it again

We stayed for a similar period last January and immediately rebooked. Location is great and the house is spacious and clean. Everything is supplied, including all kitchen appliances and utensils. Kids loved the heated pool. Views from upstairs balcony wonderful and just several minutes walk from the beach. Perfect for a family holiday.

Great say

The house is wonderful, it fit us all and was lovely. The only problem was the pool was advertised as being heated but was still very cold, I’m not sure the heating was turned on or was set high enough. Can’t fault the house though, perfect for our little getaway.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Oct, 2024
Thank you for your review. The pool is solar heated so it will only be as warm as the weather(sun) can make it as the water runs through pipes on the roof of the shed & back down into the pool. There is no way of turning up the heat. This is explained on a sign in the laundry.

Great weekend escape with friends

We had a very pleasant stay at 128 Esplanade, Robe. This place has everything you need for a trip away. Modern and comfortable self contained accommodation. Very clean and the decor was beautiful. We stayed there for 3 nights. There was everything you need- comfy lounge to relax on, modern bathrooms with toilets and showers, washing machine, and clean and workable kitchen appliances to cook meals. Convenient location with only a short walk to the beach. Very good communication with the host. Overall a great experience. Thank you for having us :-)

Would recommend

I booked for 4 people and amended the booking numbers without any issues. We didn’t have a couple towels provided but the host dropped some off as soon as possible. Check in was easy with a lock box. There was plenty of space for everyone with enough amenities to cover the number of people. There was an issue with the kettle and was rectified as soon as possible. I can’t really fault our stay at all. Everything was lovely. We will be looking to stay again

Thankyou for your feedback Douglas. As per our discussion we were aware of failure of upstairs A/C unit which is why we delivered the extra heater. Due to our proximity to major retailers the new unit did take a few days to arrive. We apologise for any inconvenience and hope to host you again in the future.

The perfect house and location for our family of 12.

The house and location provided everything we needed for a great family holiday for our three generations. The two living levels worked well. The pool table, table tennis table and swimming pool were well used. We took plenty of bikes, and adults and children enjoyed the good bike riding tracks and quiet streets. The beach was beautiful and the sunsets were stunning. Couldn’t have asked for more.

October Stay

Location was excellent, close to beach and town. We appreciated all the extra amenities .The only downside for us was the downstairs shower. It was quite difficult having a shower in the bath without slipping. The soft water was beautiful.

Excellent stay

We had a group of 11 and all had a fantastic time. The house is beautiful with a lovely pool and well equiped kitchen. Being such large group we did notice that we could have had a few more towels and toilet rolls. However, overall this was an excellent house in lovely Robe and we would book the place again.

About the host

Hosted by Happyshack

Host profile image
Happyshack have been a resident of Robe for countless generations (the last four are still ambling around, the rest lie in peace in our beautiful, historic and fascinating Robe cemetery). We have current generations of family in the town running and working local businesses, on the land farming magnificent lamb and beef, in the vines at Mount Benson making succulent reds and crisp whites and on the boats bringing in their quota of fresh crayfish.

We’ve spent our childhoods roaming Robes pristine beaches and investigating the rock pools, attending local sporting events, tobogganing down massive sand hills and camping in backyards. Our teenage years wandering aimlessly and parking on the beach with the music on as teenagers do, swimming, surfing, boarding, kayaking or just plain burning in the sun. We’ve driven down, on to Long Beach in the family car with a BBQ, esky and the kitchen sink and spent the entire day and most of the night there. We’ve skinny dipped in the seclusion of moon light and had camp fires on the beach and reminisced about the good old days. We’ve had the pleasure of waking to the sound of distant waves rhythmically crashing on the shore and to the idling of the diesel engine boats preparing to make the voyage to sea.

Our explosive Christmas tourist season enables us to have so much more than your average country town of 1300 permanent residents. There are specialty clothes and home wares stores, beauty and massage services, divine cafes and restaurants, expansive pubs with live music and poker nights, and every second hand and antique store you can think of. We even have a specialist coffee brewer, ice cream parlour and our own double cinema.

If you haven’t guessed by now, we love Robe, its home to us and we’d like to impart a little of that sense of belonging to you – our guests at Happyshack. Give us a call, if we don't know the answer, we definitely know someone who does.
