Heated Indoor pool & outdoor spa, next to beach! Welcome your holiday paradise!
WELCOME TO YOUR HOLIDAY PARADISE! Enjoy spectacular views at the Island Escape, centrally located at Surf Beach on stunning Phillip Island. This holiday rental home is within walking distance to breathtaking beaches, and close to major attractions, wilderness areas, entertainment, and shopping.
The highlight of Island Escape is the fantastic private, heated indoor 12-meter swimming pool. It’s kept at a steady 30-32 degrees Celsius, perfect for everyone in your group to enjoy year-round (see photos). A luxurious 6-seater spa sits outdoors under the veranda, where guests can relax while overlooking the dunes and coastline. After a day discovering all the island has to offer, let your cares melt away in your own secluded oasis.
There is plenty of room for the entire family to unwind: 4 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 living areas, Home Theatre Room a fully-equipped kitchen, and an expansive outdoor fenced yard. Ideal location across from the sand dunes with the island’s best beaches located just across the street. If you enjoy surfing or fishing then look no further. Endless options for entertainment within 10km of the property.
Let the kids play on their own private playground or run free in the fenced yard. This ideal location on a double block means children have room to play safely and adults have room to park automobiles, boats, or jet skis.
Another huge hit, not only for the kids but adults as well is the newly set up Home Theatre Room. Stream all of your favourite content, whether it be live action sport or your favourite movies on the state of the art sound system with projector.
Enjoy Phillip Island wildlife viewing from your holiday home: Wallabies roam the sand dunes just across the street, and shearwater birds soar through the sky from September through March. A nature reserve lines the property on one side. The Penguin Parade, one of the island’s main attractions, is just a short drive away.

LINEN: A booking at this home does not include top & bottom sheets. What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillow's with covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. Therefore you will need to bring your own towels for house and beach/pool.

WOOD: We do have a wood fire heater but if you wish to use this we only supply wood at an additional cost, this isn't included in the cost of the reservation. A 1100x500mm wood box full of wood is $100. This also needs to be arranged prior to your stay.

I hope so Janice, always love having your group stay. Welcome back anytime!
The pool is fantastic, the home cinema and spas were great, and there’s plenty of different spaces for everyone. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the ceiling fans in all the rooms distributed the cold air from the upstairs and downstairs reverse cycles efficiently…we will be back again
We enjoyed a couple gets away, Great relaxing weekend in Surf Beach!
Very spacious cozy family home, Beds were very comfortable.
Pool kept at lovely 32°, definitely would stay again.

Delighted you had a great stay Jess and enjoyed the warm pool. Thanks so much for looking after house so well, would always welcome you back!
It’s a great house to entertain family and friends. We rented it for a whole weekend, did not need to go anywhere else the entire time. The kids enjoyed the heated pool and home theater!
A few days away with family and was just what I needed. The house is as advertised but I should have used the pool more! Large secure yard for the dogs was great, location was great and communication with the Hosts was A+.

Great pool, beautiful views, very close to the beach
The pool is a great size and nice and warm for the kids. The beach is very close and the house is quite private. We spotted plenty of wildlife around. Would be great if the house had a dryer though, we stayed over a very wet weekend and it was very hard to dry our towels, my recommendation would be to pack extra pool towels.

About the host
Hosted by Lucas Piera
Born and raised on Phillip Island and now have young kids to enjoy what this special place has to offer. Couldn't think of a better place to raise children.
Why they chose this property
Loved the location and the size of the land. Double block so plenty of room.
What makes this property unique
Love the location of this house, away from the hectic crowds of the extremely busy peak holiday periods. We believe the beach across the road is one of the Islands best and doesn't get anywhere near as crowded, often having the magnificent beach all to ourselves.
