About this house rental

Nestled in the serene coastal village of Marengo, Amaroo offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and modern comfort. This two-story, north-facing home boasts breathtaking views over Marengo Beach, extending to the picturesque Apollo Bay township and rolling hills.
Just a short 500m stroll brings you to Marengo Beach, where you can indulge in swimming, surfing, fishing, or exploring the enchanting rock pools.
Upon entering the first floor through an external staircase, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, an electric oven and cooktop, a dishwasher, and a spacious fridge. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining area, separated by a convenient breakfast bar. The newly furnished dining space is perfect for gathering with loved ones to share stories of the day’s adventures, and it opens onto the expansive deck through sliding glass doors.
The cozy lounge room is outfitted with luxurious leather sofas, a TV, DVD player, and surround sound system. It also opens onto the north-facing deck, where a reverse cycle heater and air conditioner ensure year-round comfort, complemented by ceiling fans in the lounge, dining area, and master bedroom.
The sun-drenched deck spans the width of the house, offering a Weber BBQ and an eight-seat outdoor setting. It's the ideal spot to soak up the sunshine, savor the stunning ocean views, and listen to the melodic birdsong from the surrounding native trees.
The first floor also houses the master bedroom, complete with a queen-sized bed and private access to the deck. The adjoining bathroom is generously sized, featuring a bath and a separate glass-framed shower.
Downstairs, a second living area awaits, equipped with a TV, board games, and books, providing a perfect retreat for relaxation. This level also includes two additional bedrooms, a second bathroom, and a fully equipped laundry.
The property’s fully fenced yard is a delightful mix of lawn, gravel, and native gardens. Outdoor parking is conveniently located next to the house at the end of a tree-lined driveway.
For those who love to explore, a walking and cycling path connects Marengo to Apollo Bay township, just 2.5 km away. Additionally, the Great Ocean Walk and the Marengo Reserve offer ample opportunities to immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the area.

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

Stunning house with ocean views

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

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.

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.
