A single unit central to the local shops and restaurants of Hastings.

Two bedrooms, main bedroom with a queen bed.
The second bedroom has two king single beds.

The dining table can open up to seat 4 people.

The enclosed front yard is private and has a table and chairs to relax with or coffee.

During the day lovely Somers beach is only 15 mins away and for the surfers only a few minutes more to Point Leo. Hastings is walking distance to restaurants, shops and then pier. Relax and soak in a warm bath. Or see a movie and the Drive In cinema located at Dromana only 20 minutes away. Red Hill wineries are around 20 mins away also, or perhaps see the Mornington peninsula from a higher view in the gondolas, at Arthurs seat.

Free WiFi and NETFLIX on the 58 inch screen TV. There's a small collection of dvds available for your enjoyment, and a small collection of board games too.

Full use of the kitchen if you’d prefer to dine in too.

Inside pets are welcome, and an enclosed rear yard with a lockable gate if you need to go out for a while.

Also, an outside hammock to relax in.
There is a single external camera that faces the driveway only.
Come and see what the Mornington Peninsula has to offer and relax and enjoy your Stayz. The accomodation is for quiet use, so please do not disturb the other residents in the neighbouring units as they’re private residential homes.

The property was great for our family with two kids and dog, it was clean, comfortable and well equipped. We were really happy to see a doggy door and fully enclosed back yard. Having a washing machine and outdoor clothes line was very practical for a week stay.
