Doug is an amazing host.
The property was clean and tidy and in excellent condition. We had plenty of room to spread out in.
We will stay again on our next visit to the island. The location suited us perfectly I can highly recommend this property.

We loved this property
The home was clean and tidy. Well equipped. Little touches of convenience like tissues in most rooms, basic cooking supplies, dog bags and bowls, games for the backyard and toys for children.
It felt really well thought out in terms of leaving toys and books for children to play with
I also really loved the home made honey that was compliments of the host from the bees you can see from the backyard.
We also brought our family dog with us and he had a great time. It was very hot and there was limited shade outside but it didn’t really affect us as we were out with him on adventures everyday.
The location was perfect. Super close and convenient to everything. But also away from the business of Cowes. We enjoyed walking to the inlet and exploring the area.
The host Doug was extremely helpful and responsive when I had a question. Very polite and friendly.
Would highly recommend this home to anyone!

We had a fantastic weekend getaway at this place. Rhyll is amazing and this place is aptly located to everything you want to explore in Philip Island. The beach is a 5 min walk down the road.
The place is clean and well equipped with all amenities. Beautiful house in a beautiful location.

The house doesn't look impressive from the outside but inside was nice and clean, with everything we needed along with little special touches that weren't advertised or necessary but really made for a great visit (e.g., board games, free local honey, fresh lemons, a few toys and books we could use, etc). When we left behind some chargers for our devices Doug got in touch and offered to mail them! Location was excellent - the nearby tennis courts and general store were so convenient, and the neighbourhood was quiet. Would definitely come again!
5.0
Fantastic little 3 bed house with everything you need for a short or long stay. Awesome outdoor area with BBQ in ideal spot for bringing family on a holiday. Playground and tennis court across the road with the boat ramp a short walk away. We’ll be back with friends and family for a longer stay!
