The property was very homely and comfortable. You feel like it is your own holiday home, as it has a kitchen full of plenty of pots and pans and utensils, comfortable couches, hundreds of books and well decorated with everything you would expect in a family holiday home. Karen the host was very friendly in her messages and information and genuinely hopes you enjoy your time in her family holiday house. I highly recommend this place.

This is one of the best places we have stayed at on the Great Ocean Rd and we go every year. Fab location in Skene’s Creek, ocean views are breathtaking. Birds visiting the balcony are gorgeous. Rooms are spacious and the living space is large and very comfy. We loved it. Very clean and well appointed. Karen was an amazing communicator and made us feel informed and very welcome!

Skene's Creek delight to share with your 4 legged friend
This property is a truly excellent place to stay, even without your 4 legged friend, but it adds a very special extra when your beach loving doggy can enjoy it with you. This house is absolutely great. Set up with everything you could possibly need on holiday. Karen has thought of everything. The house has a wonderful welcoming feel, kitchen has everything you could possibly need, the beds are comfy. Karen was a great host to deal with.

Beautiful sea side getaway
This property has top notch location, minutes from the beach with stunning view. It is VERY well equipped for entertaining & cooking, however the stove has only one setting (high) which makes it slightly challenging to cook certain dishes requiring low heat. Nonetheless, there is great bbq outside so that wasn't much of an issue. Rooms are great and spacious, both bathrooms are great but the pressure in the shower is EXTREMELY low making it very hard to wash of salty water from long hair. Besides these two details, the house is amazing and recommended for family, friends, couples etc. anyone who wants to enjoy nice sea views and the 'beach house' feeling. It is dog friendly too, our little cavoodle loved it!

Hi Natalia,
Thanks for your review and we're glad that you enjoyed your time away.
We weren't aware that there was a problem with the wall oven so thanks for bringing it to our attention so that we can have it checked.
We have recently changed the showerheads in both bathrooms which I believe may have affected the water pressure coming through as we have only recently had feedback about it. I'll get the plumber back to have a look at it and appreciate your feedback so that we can follow it up for future guests.
We hope that this didn't deter from your stay and that you'll come back and visit us again!

Wonderfully relaxing!
We were able to relax and unwind in this lovely space! Swims at the beach, cups of tea, watching the birds and relaxing with a book on the comfortable couches are some of the great opportunities this great house gives you. We had a great stay and enjoyed being together in this lovely location. Thanks Karen!
