Perfect for our 2 families sharing the house. Lovely bathroom. Well set out. Fire pit and outside lights were a great addition. Parking is only available on the street (unlimited). This didn’t bother us and is mentioned in the description but I’m just making a point of it in case it bothers future visitors.

Excellent location and great for beach walks and access to cafes as well as being super dog friendly. The house was relatively neat and tidy, but a little leacky regarding bugs etc. Many of the glasses and plates were greasey and needed to be washed before use, the sliding door didn't work well and there were quite a few of cob webs about. Over all a great location, but not clean as expected.

Beach shack, a little tired in places but with some new furnishings and comfortable enough. Garden is great and location is excellent. Expected a lot cleaner considering 80 cleaning fee, particularly the bathroom.

Great stay in a great house

We had another great stay here. It is so close to everything that you can just walk and even with less sunny weather this time there was heaps to do and see. The best spot to go for a little family getaway.

We had a wonderful stay at Ocean Beach Retreat. The place had everything we needed for our beach stay. The beds were super comfy, the outdoor area was fantastic and we had most meals outside. It also has a great yard which my dog enjoyed immensely. The location itself was fantastic, so close to the beach, lighthouse and shops. Stuart, the host was very friendly and helpful and his communication was very prompt. We are already discussing coming back again next year. Thank you very much for making our Point Lonsdale stay so relaxing and comfortable!
