Very clean, great location. Short walk to shops and beach. Very warm, cosy, inviting home. Loved the games, especially foosball and giant Uno. Loved all the blankets and couches, were very comfortable. One piece of feedback, would have been nice to have some tissues or paper towels as there was none, also was not super great having to park out the front of the property. But overall very much enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic stay. Was easy to get any minor things sorted (Wifi needed to be reset and was done in minutes) and the place was beautiful. Plenty of room, great spaces for different activities. Walking distance to great cafes and shops. Awesome kids park 1 min walk away. Would definitely be coming again in summer one time!

Thanks for your review Rohan, so pleased you enjoy your stay. Location is so good, we just stayed there ourselves this weekend and the ease of walking 200 meters into town or equally to the beach is priceless. We are having some renovations and upgrades to the house in the next few months, super exciting. Hope you will stay with us again in the future.

Very nice house with ample beds for large family. Nice and close to town and the beach, so the teens could just walk there whilst the adults could relax.The home was well appointed and well equipped with plenty of cups plates etc. The reason it gets 4/5 stars is unfortunately the bed mattress throughout appeared very old and extremely uncomfortable. Overall still a very nice, relaxing place to stay and visit the south west.

About the host

Hosted by Donna McColl

Host profile image

Both Cam and I own our own business (a children's fitness program) that runs in across Australia, we appreciate the importance of a quality service and good communication.
Cam and our son are mad keen surfers, and love more than anything to head to the beautiful southwest to surf. I own a little quarter horse and love to horse ride and compete. Our daughter is a flyer in a cheerleading team and again we travel for her competitions and events, so as you can read, we are a really busy active family, which leaves us little time to spend in our quaint Dunsborough holiday home (unfortunately)
We do however make sure that this home is set up to make our guests stay as comfortable as possible, just the way we like to find it ourselves!

Why they chose this property

This is a lovely property in an AMAZING location!!!
No need to get in your car, the beautiful Dunsborough beach is only a few minutes walk away, the town centre is also just a few minutes away with boutique shopping, cafe's, restaurants and supermarkets. There is a park at the end of the street for children to play in and dogs to run around (we are a pet friendly home).
The Happy Feet Beach Retreat is an old style house with all the modern trimmings you need to make your stay a comfortable.
