Amazing Stay at Rob’s Beautiful Home

We had a fantastic long weekend at Rob’s place. The house was spacious, bright, spotless, and beautifully designed. The large, green yard was perfect for relaxing, and watching the sunrise was truly breathtaking.The place is also dog-friendly, which was a big plus for us! Rob was an excellent host—friendly, attentive, and even offered to watch our dog on the last day so we could explore the beach and nature more freely.We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back!Thank you, Rob, for your kindness and hospitality!Search

Amazing

We stayed here for two nights and to say that it was anything less then amazing, would be a lie. The owner of the house was really friendly and made us feel comfortable. It was even better that we were able to bring our two dogs.

Comfortable home away from home

Rob is a great host, he is very helpful and knowledgeable about the area and provided fabulous communication. The house is shared but our area was private. The house is as presented in the photos. The garden is really lovely. We were there on a cold, rainy Victorian winter weekend and were very comfortable. The house has all the amenities that we needed for our stay. It is in a very quiet location.

Happy Stayer

One of the nicest home owners I’ve come across, was very welcoming and overall just a top bloke. The house has everything you need both on the inside and outside. Would definitely recommend giving it a look, 10/10.

Relaxing getaway

The Stayz website itself was very glitchy and wouldn't allow me to login to it. Relaxing time away, easy to login to WiFi as a guest. The dog loved the backyard, the hot tub was good and so was the mini golf. Easy to contact manager if required. Everything was clean and we had an enjoyable week. Thank you

On our List Property

This property is one of the few houses (bnb) in our list of recommended properties. Beautifully landscaped backyard, clean house and the best host ever! His name is Rob. He is very accommodating and gives you privacy. My daughter wants to go back there for summer next year. Highly recommend this property!!!

A Most Delicious & Relaxing Stay

We had a brilliant time. Very easy check in. Incredible property. Remarkably clean. The host takes so much pride to give the most inviting surroundings. To ensure the Photos don’t do it justice. The host is the most inviting, friendly guy and makes you feel extremely at home. If you have stress & needing relaxation. This is definitely the spot. We will return soon 🎈 Weather was perfect too. Oh what a beautiful time we had.

Awesome backyard

Beautiful house with an awesome backyard for our 2 fur babies. Love the fire pit Friendly owner who lives onsite. It wasn’t mentioned in the description. Respected our privacy. Works outside around the house when we were there, and shared the kitchen albeit when we’re out. Was fine with us but wasn’t expecting it. All in all, a nice stay for us

The house it self was very nice

Me and my partner wanted to get away for my birthday for a romantics weekend. Great place for the dogs nice back yard the house was great but one small problem the owner was there living in a seperate room that made us feel uncomfortable. We didn’t end up having a romantic weekend at all or using the spa. If your going to rent this place and you think you will have the whole place to yourself think again. The owner of the property will be there with you. It doesn’t say on the right up about the owners being there so if you feel comfortable with him being there than go ahead rent it out. We were very disappointed.

Chillington by name and by nature

The property is as good as it looks it’s photos. It does not feel like you are only 10 mins from Rosebud beaches. The location was perfectly situated or you are keen to go to the hot springs or play some golf. So accessible. My dogs were made very welcome and we really enjoyed spending some time with our host, Rob, and hearing some of his own travel and adventure stories (of which he has a wealth of, with some that will leave you with some serious wanderlust).
