We had a lovely stay at Seahouse Studio and would love to return one day in the future. The studio is very clean and is surrounded by the most beautiful native garden and views of the bay.
Seahorse Studio in Mornington was amazing. Everything we needed for our stay was catered for and the views from the balcony first class. Made our anniversary very special in a beautiful landscaped location by the sea. Would not hesitate to mention to friends and family wanting a romantic getaway. Kind regardsKaren
