Nice spacious property clean and well presented.Good central location, close to main street in Cowes.Nice back garden with decent sized swimming pool.Safe enclosed area for our dog.
Everything was amazing. The house is perfect — everything was very clean and well organised (except for the pool), but honestly we can’t complain about anything. We had a beautiful weekend.I would even say the place is nicer than what you can appreciate in the photos. We would definitely stay there again without any doubt! We were 8 people and everyone felt very comfortable.

I can’t recommend enough, the place is clean, good space, excellent location from the shops, we definitely had an relaxing and fun weekend.
We all loved the private pool!
Thank you very much.
The house set up served us well. A great outdoor patio with room to move. The inside of the property was all neat and tidy with good separation from the main living area to the bedrooms.
A place I'd gladly recommend to all.
We stayed here a week and we had the most amazing time! Everything is close by. The house was perfect and really did live up to its listing name. The pool was a hit with the kids. The rooms were of perfect size. The outdoor area was perfect to get away from the sun and light a bbq. The house was very clean and Netflix was was perfect for a family unwind at the end of the day. We will definitely be coming back!

HOME ITSELF IS GREAT!
We loved ‘A Perfect 10’ (House itself) ....the house is large, clean, modern, tidy and has all the amenities that you could ask for. Beds are comfortable and the back yard is great for the kids and the location is close to the shops. It is a beautiful home.
BUT.....we had broken sleep every night and got woken up very early every morning due to the large dog that lives in the house that backs onto ‘A Perfect 10’. This dog has nothing to do with this home but it certainly put a dampener on our trip. We had no chance to sleep in, so unfortunately due to our experience we wouldn’t stay again.
It was our first time staying at Phillip Island, and we were not disappointed. The house was well located and an easy walk into town. We had our dog with us and the yard was brilliant, fully enclosed and large enough for him to run around. The house itself was very clean and well presented. I will be staying there again.
