Spacious and clean

Lovely spacious property with lots of room for up to 8. We were just 2 and used only the top floor. Modern kitchen, well-equipped (although would have liked paper towels to be supplied) and lovely view from the upper level.

Lovely relaxing stay

We had such a relaxing time at Amaroo. The views were amazing and the house was very comfortable. It was really nice to have things like a dishwasher and a washer dryer. The bed was comfy too. We missed out on seeing the koala but hopefully next time. There were plenty of birds out the front and the house was a nice short drive to the beach. Thanks again for a lovely stay.

Great Pet Friendly Option!

Had a lovely stay at this Marengo property - very peaceful with lovely views and only a short walk to the beach. Definitely amoungst the nicer pet friendly properties available in the area - very comfortable and my pup loved the garden which was fully fenced

Great location

We love staying in Marengo, and this house is walking distance to the beach. We loved feeding the daily bird visitors, koala watching, paddle boarding, swimming and walking on the beach. Perfect way to end the school holidays!

Fantastic views

We had a great long weekend. It’s such a beautiful area. Short walk to the beach. Communication pre and during the stay was great. Would definitely stay again if I was in the area.

Views and relaxation

A beautiful house, with lovely views of the surf. The accomodation was spacious and set in a quiet spot among trees. Apollo Bay was a 25 minute walk away, with 2 supermarkets and a choice of great cafes, restaurants and takeaway places. The communication from the rental group was clear and welcoming.

Lovely spot, shame about the details

This was a beautiful property but we were disappointed to find it wasn't as clean as you might expect for a holiday rental. The carpets in the lounge room and bedroom were covered in dog hair and I found myself sneezing throughout the entire weekend as a result. It was also really surprising that there was no WiFi at the property, which is not something you expect in rental accommodation in 2021.

Disliked: Amenities, communication

The property had a lovely view and was comfortable. However it lack all the little touches that makes good accommodation, GREAT. Simple things like oil, salt and pepper in the kitchen, a clothesline and wifi would have made our stay much more enjoyable. The expected cleaning upon departure was also a little excessive considering a clean fee is charged. To expect that no sand to be left behind at a beach house seems a tall ask. It was nice but I would not rave about it.

Listen to the ocean at night

Beautiful views and you can hear the waves crash at night. Merengo has a great beach and is only a short walk to the house.

Stunning house with ocean views

I loved Amaroo. It's tucked away in a quiet street with access to the Great Ocean Road. It's super close to the GOR but due to all the gorgeous trees and ferns you can't hear the cars go by. We spent much of our time out on the deck enjoying the gorgeous view. There's all the appliances and utensils you could need so it's a wonderful home away from home. Our pup loved staying there with us, running around in the back garden and sitting on the deck lazing in the sun. We will definitely be back soon! :)

Brilliant but a few things which can be fixed to enhance the overall property

Overall the property was really awesome, so close to everything and felt right at home. The only improvements I would say are first the lock on the flyscreen door as once it locked us out on our stay due to unknown reasons which is quite dangerous as I almost could not get back in (the hole in the door was already there too and have photos if required). In addition it would be smart to tell the customer where the AC remote is kept as it took a while for me to find it being on next to the TV in the corner. The leftmost power outlet closest to the fridge, the left electornic point in the two power outlets is broken when you flick it on and needs to be fixed as it tripped the entire house's power outlets and we could not fix this on the last morning. Furthermore if it is possible,cutting down the trees a little on neighbouring properties would work wonders as it would provide a fantastic view to the beach on top of the one that was already there which was ok. Also an investment in some non stick fry pans and or some new kitchen cooking appliances would be awesome as some of the items were very old and one pan even still had black dirt on it from the last time people used the place. However the rest of the stay was perfect and would come back again.

Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Amaroo is a nice place to stay. We enjoyed the abundance of beautiful birds and the friendly koala in the tree outside the front door. The accommodation was clean and tidy and comfortable. The let downs were all the outside lighting on the deck was not working except 1. No lights working in the range hood. Beds down stairs were comfortable but cold. General maintenance of the exterior of the property around doorways patio areas was dirty.If these things were maintained then we would rate our stay 10/10. Beautiful view, peaceful and quiet.
