About this property

Spacious & Family Friendly Home | Only three doors down from The Esplanade

Ideally located at Port Elliot on the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula in SA, Port Elliot Beach House has Knights & Boomer Beaches 100m away and famous Horseshoe Bay just over 300m east. Sea and Bluff views from upstairs balcony and living areas. Everything is within easy walking distance - beaches, great cafes and hotels. At the right time of year you'll be amazed at the number of Southern Right Whales that turn up - they think it's a great place to holiday and they should know!

Life's Luxuries

Just 12 years old and custom built over two levels with 5 spacious bedrooms all made up with Bed & bath Linen - 1 KS / 4 QS beds + 1 x single in 5th Bedroom + trundle, sleeping 12 in beds. 2 very separate full-size living areas equipped with HDTV & HD BluRay DVDs & collection, everyone will have a fabulous holiday! Children & Teens can enjoy their own space, downstairs while others can relax upstairs and take in the sea views to the Bluff at Victor Harbor. With plenty of room and two full-size bathrooms (one with huge bath) enjoy life's simple luxuries after a day at the beach soaking up the sun and surf or dining in one of the many cafes and hotels, including the renowned Flying Fish Cafe just a stone's throw away!
All beds with doonas and linen are made up for your convenience -there is nothing to bring except personal effects and clothing!

The Great Outdoors

Everyone knows Horseshoe Bay, so grab your towels and head for the beach as both the Bay and Knights Beach are just a stroll from the Beach House. Some may choose to simply enjoy the sea views from the balcony, cycle or walk the trails in the area. A hit of tennis at one of 6 courts adjacent to the property will appeal to those with extra energy - players bring your racquets! When the sun goes down, leave the car behind and stroll down to the local Hotels and cafes - the only limits are just how much to do and see whilst holidaying at Port Elliot Beach House!

OWe had a wonderful time! Ideal location and amazingly comfy beds, pillow and bedding. Disappointed that we could only see half the view as the windows were not clean. Could have done with some small shampoo, shower gel and extra TP too. Definitely be back! Thanks Robyn.

We Enjoyed our stay. Easy to check in and prompt responses. Beds were comfortable and made up when we arrived. Issues with oven didn’t resolve so had to use bbq. Both bbq were clean and easy to use.Both toilets are in bathrooms so a bit tricky in the morning with 10 people wanting to go at the same time as people showering. Floors could do with a bit more of a clean as sand and body hair found on floor.Very close to beach front and town amenities. Plenty of cooking amenities and cutlery, crockery, glasses. We think we will book again for our next long weekend however would like the oven to be repaired as we rely on an oven. Thankyou

Lovely guests but admit the oven can be tricky with settings! We are very fussy abt beach sand as house thoroughly vacuumed and mopped each stay but we notice if guests don’t use outdoor shower during their stay the sand will come back inside!

Great stay, amazing host

Lovely house within walking distance of Port Elliott’s quirky and interesting shops and cafes and hotels. Walk down to the beach or along the coastline and see the best sunsets. The house has everything you will need and is extremely comfortable, the two levels are great if staying with teens. Robyn is an amazing, gracious host who really cares about your stay in her beautiful home. Will definitely be returning, thanks Robyn ❤️

Port Elliot's finest

Robyn the host was extremely helpful and accommodating. She was quick to respond to any queries and requests. Robyn approved an early check in and late check out which was very helpful a generous gesture. The property itself is clean, spacious and has beautiful views.The beds are soft and comfy and there were plenty of blankets. It is conveniently located close to the beach and all the amenities. Perfect for a family celebration as significant as a 70th birthday. Something that we did notice is that the bathroom sink is missing a built-in plug section so if you were to drop something, it would have been lost. But otherwise a lovely experience and perfect for our family celebration. Thanks Robyn.

About the host

Hosted by Robyn Coles

Host profile image
We built this property for us and like minded holiday makers after years of renting the wrong beach house! We wanted room, airy space and lots of natural sunshine light! Plus room for everyone to spread out and enjoy the holiday - including us. Why Port Elliot - we travel the world a lot and this would have to be one of the best beach holiday hubs in Australia and around the globe - we still love it as much and every time we go there we come home having had a wonderful time - even the coldest of winters are marvellous if rugged up!

Why they chose this property

The proximity to the beaches, walk to all the great cafes, walk the coastal path and its never too busy. It is quietly located on a corner just far enough away from Horseshoe Bay not to have parking issues in peak season! Cool in summer with lots of glass and warm in winter sunshine!

What makes this property unique

5 good size bedrooms KS upstairs / 4 queen downstairs + 1 single bed & trundle so everyone has a proper & comfortable bed! 2 full size living / dining areas - 1 upstairs and 1 down Children & Teens can be downstairs & adults upstairs - everyone has their space!
