Wonderful location close to HMAS Cerberus for families of sailors, access to all of Mornington Peninsula, food options available nearby. Property was very clean and lovely. The owner was wonderful to deal with and gave plenty of information with plenty of time for our stay.

Had a great time relaxing in Somers. With easy beach access it made my stay amazing. Loved the studio, and the quality of attention to detail. The small touches made it such a delightful experience. Would highly recommend this place, and I’d come again when I’m in the area
We thought the nest was a fantastic place for us. The room was super comfy and private. And the attention to detail made the stay. It had every thing you need plus some really thoughtful treats. I strongly recommend this accomodation. Thanks

Thank you Shane, it was a pleasure to host your stay at the Nest.
You were very considerate guests and I would be happy to have you return.
Best regards,

This is a beautiful studio. The attention detail is second to no one. We have stayed at many places not just here in Australia but around the world and I truely enjoyed the stay. The ‘care’ that the host showed us, complete strangers, was amazing. The host has thought of everything.
