Happy with our stay

Perfect place for our needs which was a wedding at a local winery. Loved the Bar and Pool Table in the garage. Air con worked very well in the heat. The mattresses in the bunks were a bit thin for adults

Beautiful home. But needs over head fan in bedroom levelled so it can be used. And for the price you would expect wifi and dishwashing machine. Otherwise it was a fantastic location and relaxing.

We recently enjoyed a fantastic stay in Portarlington!

The beautiful home offers an extensive balcony with breathtaking views of the bay and You Yangs, and the beach was just 50 meters away. The house layout is perfect for two families, with separate areas on two levels for privacy. The well-sized bedrooms accommodated our needs, and we loved the games room and cozy fireplace downstairs. This property is a gem for a family seaside retreat, thoughtfully designed for all ages. With so much to do and see, we left with wonderful memories and can't wait to return. Highly recommended for families!

Perfect Holiday Home

This property was wonderful. A beautiful, large and very clean home. Aesthetically pleasing and very inviting. Plenty of room for our large family. Kids loved the pool table, the huge oval to play footy behind the house and the adults got to relax on the balcony with a nice coffee. I would definitely recommend this property.

Portarlington wedding

We were there for a wedding. It suited us as we needed area for small children downstairs. It’s located in quite area about a 2km to shops off The Esplanade. It presented very well but did need a good vacuum and dust, otherwise suited our needs

Great place , great stay very accommodating with only minor issues.

Great stay, very homely feel with all the creature comforts and trims and kept the family entertained even on a rainy day which was a great plus. There were a few minor issues like upstairs TV froze at one stage, bugs in the coffee maker (probably hasn’t been used for a while) upstairs bathrooms lock is slightly faulty, at one point our child couldn’t unlock the door but luckily we were able to giggle it open. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay and would easily go back.

Lovely place and easy access to beach. Well equipped but unfortunately no WiFi but it didn’t really bother us and bed is a little less supportive. Otherwise thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beach stay

House was a base for the fabulous Celtic Music festival we attended. The property wasn't quite what we imagined as the bedroom layout did not really suit our group of 5 individual adults. The downstairs was a little musty. Nice and clean and great lighting upstairs. Tx

Relaxing stay

A group of friends stayed and we all loved having our own bedroom. Lots of space to spread out, 3 lounge areas, each with a TV and DVD player or game console. House was clean and well equipped. Spacious deck to enjoy the autumn sunshine. Nice little view to the water from the kitchen. Excellent communication with Jennene who was lovely and responded quickly to any contact. Overall a lovely stay and hope to stay again.
