A beautiful, well presented and clean home that had everything we needed for a really enjoyable long weekend. The space was inviting and open and perfect for relaxing inside in the open plan space or outside by the pool. The kitchen also has everything you need if you like to cook. Great communication and fast response if anything needed during the stay. It felt like a home away from home. We loved our stay.

Perfect spot for a break

We had a lovely stay at this property. The location is peaceful without being too far from beaches and shops. Check in was easy and our host was welcoming and helpful with her communications. The house was very clean and comfortable, great for days we wanted to just stop, swim and relax. We'd happily stay here again, it was a wonderful place for a holiday.

I stayed here the night before my wedding with my groomsmen- was a great place to stay and very close to many great locations around Blairgowrie and Sorrento. The host was extremely flexible and was always in communication. Pool was outstanding! Would recommend this place for families and couples.

We had a lovely stay with the kids and loved the large comfortable couches and great pool. We unfortunately got bad weather but kids still managed to get in the pool everyday due to heating which was great. Thank you

Fresh, modern poolside retreat.

We had a lovely week at this property with perfect weather for total poolside relaxation! It’s fresh, open and modern inside, with a great kitchen/living space. The pool and deck are heavenly, warm and private. A perfect location for our family getaway. Unseasonably hot weather meant it was hard to keep bedrooms cool overnight, but overall we had a great time and would definitely come back here again at any time of year. Thanks Donna and Brenda - loved it!

Must stay! Amazing!♡♡

We had the most wonderful time. We were greeted by our host who was very friendly. Donna was so nice and allowed us an earlier check in as we have 2 little kiddies and the latest check out (ever) which was amazing so we had full use of the pool on a hot summers day! Thank you so very much♡♡♡ The property was close to shops and the front beach so we had the best of both worlds. House was perfect for 4 adults and 2 kids. Also perfect for crazy Melbourne weather with heating & cooling. Beds are comfortable, good extras such as tea and coffee. Games as well so we had our entertainment sorted. Haven't played pictionary for way too long! Thank you Donna and co ( you know who you are) for your fab hospitality and making us enjoy gorgeous Blairgowrie. See you soon we will be back!

Blairgowrie poolside bliss lived up to all our expectations!

Our stay was relaxing from the get go with great amenities, and amazing location with close proximity to the beach and shops, all of which were a short walk away, assuming you wanted to leave the comforts by the poolside. Communicating with Donna was a breeze, and she was very accommodating from start to finish. Highly recommended and we will definitely return in the future.
