Great place for a girls weekend, where we each had a bedroom and made use of the well-equiped kitchen and spacious lounge. Fab location - so close to gin-distillery, wineries and everything the Mornington Peninsula has to offer!

Spacious and modern
We were two families sharing for a weekend and found the property clean, modern and spacious. It is only a very short drive to the beach and shopping strip and you could walk it if you weren’t in a hurry. The host, Dianne, is a pleasure to deal with and responds to queries very promptly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others.

Perfect Wedding accommodation for family of the Groom. It was an easy drive to Dromana Estate Winery. The local IGA was a quick backstreet trip for groceries & papers and there was a convenient back way to Jetty Road Brewery for our post Wedding gathering the following day. Perfect really! The Property itself was very professionally managed by Dianne and comprehensively equipped. High standards! Many thanks Hubert

Absolutely beautiful big home for family get together
Looks small from the outside entrance, but huge area when you enter. Plenty of room for 11 of us. Everything you could want for, nothing missed. Made it so easy to cater for all. Beds super comfy, great covered out door bbq area. So secure, and a beautiful light filled home. Will be back. Diana the host was very helpful with any questions and replied on messages promptly.

Thanks for your review Robert I’m so glad you all enjoyed your stay & would love to welcome you back anytime
The property was hands down the most well equipped short stay I have ever had the pleasure to hire! Kitchen equipment was fully stocked including appliances. The rooms are all extremely spacious and there are huge communal areas. The private bathroom in the master was a blessing (and had a great shower). It's a short drive (only a few minutes) from the beach and shops so it's a bit suburban if you want to be beachfront, but we were staying there for a wedding and it was absolutely perfect for that. Loved it!

Thanks for your review Stephanie glad you had a great stay
We needed somewhere to stay in Dromana to attend our sons wedding. This place was perfect. Beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. Nice and large it felt like a home you could simply relax in.
The owners have catered for all your needs and there was coffee and condiments and all the general things you need in the kitchen. We didn’t really want for anything, just bought our food and drinks and everything else was there.
The rooms were a good size and excellent living spaces with a really large outdoor area. It had 3 TVs with 2 seperate living areas.
It is a quick drive to the shops and beach. We would love to stay here again some time.
Mike and family.

Loved our stay here! The instructions and information provided online are clear and detailed. Diane is also super attentive and quick to respond to any questions. The house is super spacious, the two living discreet are great, bedrooms and bathrooms are a great size and the outdoor entertaining area is incredible! Amenities are also fantastic - towels, linen, coffee machine, tea etc. It’s an easy 10-15 min walk down to the beach and main straight. Would highly recommend for a group of friends / family.

Thanks for your review Meg it was great to host you & I'm so happy you enjoyed your stay
We had a wonderful time in this fantastic property. As soon as we entered the house we felt at home. The booking was made up of 4 different families 9ppl in total. The house was spacious enough for us all to enjoy our own time away from each other as well as the adults from the teens.
We would highly recommend Dianne as a host she never once got annoyed with the many messages we sent changing our booking dates (with covid, dance timetable)
Thanks Dianne we hope to stay here again next year
