Pet and child friendly

We stayed for 10 days with our family and dogs. There was plenty of fenced space outside for the dogs. The kitchen/dining area was spacious. The living area did not have enough sofa space for us all. Easy walk to the beach and various facilities. We enjoyed our time at the house and visiting many peninsula attractions.

The listing said it is pet friendly but when we arrived we discovered the very low fences and gates that don't actually lock due to them decaying. There is no fence around one side separating the back yard from the front and the front fences are at hip height. We asked about if this was appropriate for 2 medium sized dogs when we requested the stay but all we had was an approved stay so we had to assume that it was. When we entered the house we found a note saying not to leave animals unattended for their comfort and safety, which is not ideal when you want to go visit restaurants and national parks where you can't take dogs. Otherwise a very nice stay, clean and comfortable.

Great location, cosy and comfortable

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at this lovely property recently for a relaxing family trip away during school holidays. Size of the house was perfect for two families, each with three kids. Kitchen and dining area was a lovely space. The kitchen was fully equipped and had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The lounge area was nice and cosy but perhaps slightly small as we all couldn't fit on the couch to watch a movie but we made it work with extra chairs. The outdoor seating area was lovely, perfect place to have our morning coffees. Location was excellent and very close to the beach. We went for a few walks to the beach before and after our meals. Overall, our stay was very pleasant and the house was a great choice for our little getaway from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne. Thank you!
