Fantastic getaway for my little family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was dated but very clean and well maintained. Everything we needed for cooking was in the kitchen and plenty of books to read. Very quiet area and walking distance to the beach. Stairs at the front deck get slippery when it rains so be careful and don't fall on your arse like I did

Great location, beds and amenities

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is an easy walk to Cowes main street. Beds, showers are great, and the house presented clean and well looked after. For the price, and I know it is a tough market when trying to rent during major events, but these items would add alot more satisfaction.Little things would make it excellent including* T.V upgrade, a cheap one with Chromecast would be brilliant, in particular those with kids or myself a big kid.* Towels were extremely old.* No soap for the showers. This would not stop me from trying to rent it in the future, in fact I highly recommend it.

Easter break with family.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family went to Cowes for a short break. The house was well equipped and comfortable. The front door should have had a more secure locking. The gate should be widened for larger cars. Otherwise very comfortable and enjoyable.

Fantastic family accommodation

We stayed as a family of 6 and all really enjoyed our weekend at 9 Rita Ave. The beds were comfy, and having 2 showers and 2 toilets was a huge plus. We also really appreciated that everything a guest could want had been thought of, and catered to a wide range of ages. Perfect amount of space for a large family, and the wood fire made it feel just like home. We will definitely look to stay here again in the future. Thank you!

Weekend in Phillip Island

Property was perfect for our requirements, only hicup was turning the hot water unit on, so the first showers were a little fresh! Otherwise a great little getaway and each night we strolled into town for some great meals.
