Host was so hospitable and flexible with booking. The house is in the perfect location and holds a good amount of people. Was a lovely weekend away!

Great property

Apart from the water views, there is nothing good to say about this property. It looks and feels very much a long deserted house, cold and unwelcome. Grasses were long, and rubbish were laying around. Apart from spider webs and thousands and thousands of flying insects waiting to get in with us or into us (if we speak), it provides nothing, not even a spare rubbish bin in a bathroom, or enough toilet rolls for the guests. And not even a small carton of milk. We were not certain whether we went to the correct property. There was no communication regarding check-in etc. For the one night price of $$$, it was a total rip-off. Would not recommend to anyone. It is truly a horrible experience in a (feel-like) haunting house. Bad!

A great house, as advertised. The host was a great communicator and made the check-in process very easy. The house was clean and the views are spectacular. Very enjoyable after a long day on the golf course. We will be back in the future.

This property has good view with kindly ownner .evreything was good .we had lovely days in. I hope can go again there.

The property is in a great location in Portarlington, right on the water and close to shops and golf courses in the surrounding towns.The check in process was very easy and property was as described. We had a great weekend and would do again.

Perfect canvas for any holiday, just close enough to town but far enough from the holiday crowds... boat ramp conveniently located 200 metres from the front door.Rooms are spacious and every room has an amazing view. There is a children’s park located 400m away and the beach is literally on your door step. We have the privilege of meeting the owners family who stayed in their apartment downstairs while we were there and shared some cooking tips.If staying in summer and you get very hot would recommend bringing a fan for the bedroom.We had a great stay and are planning to go back again next month.

For the price per night definitely not worth the money. Had to take our own bed linen and towels. House smelt of smoke when turned on air conditioner. Bins full of rubbish and drinks left in the fridge. Overall not what we expected.

Beautiful nice and clean house loved evrey minute of it

Fantastic view from the balcony overlooking the bay, great sunset photos to the left, and pier boat ramp to the right.Spacious floorplan with a huge dining table to fit everyone. Another toilet would've been great but with the view and location, other faults are easily forgotten. The Property Manager was helpful and understanding - making our stay a breeze!Great house, I will definitely stay there again.

Thank you Josie for a wonderful stay at your property over the New Year Period! The house was just as stated and clean throughout. Its the perfect location to sit back and unwind- thank you and we will be back!

Overall good Another bathroom and TV would be wonderful

Very clean, great view, good value

The house is in a brilliant location overlooking the water and about 2km walk to the main street - a really lovely walk along the water. However a couple of things detracted from our experience. Firstly, we arrived to find people at the house, cars and boats in the front yard - we found out they were staying on the ground floor - we had no idea there were two separate 'properties' within the one house. The description on Stayz makes no mention whatsoever of this, and the owner didn't advise us of that. We paid a lot for the property and just assumed we had the whole house. It was fine, but would have been nice to have known about this beforehand. The house itself (upstairs only) was big and spacious with spectacular views - but it didn't look to have been cleaned very well at all. The floors were sandy and there was a bit of rubbish underneath beds. Even more disappointing was that there was not a single roll of toilet paper in either of the two toilets! Even little things like no washing up liquid, no tea towels (we had to take all of our own linen), no ironing board and we were surprised there was no dishwasher. There was also no doona for the single bed and we had to call to request one. So yes we had a lovely time but for the price we paid, we just expected a little more.

What a great place to stay. A wonderful house with amazing views. Great for a large family or group. Josie is a terrific host. Thanks again for allowing us to use your property. We’ll be back.

What a view ..... breathe taking

Our stay was just a stopover before hitting the great ocean road. It was conveniently located and the views were amazing! The outdoor balcony was massive and relaxing!!! There is a beautiful walk past the car park to get to the other side where a coffee shop and cafe is located, as well as swings for the kids (about a 15 min walk along the water). The rental house area is one level (up stairs -entry from the rear of the house). It was a great size and open floor plan which made it feel very spacious. The place was clean and tidy with ample seating for guests. The kitchen was a good size and the fridge was a great size too. There was cleaning products provided and basic cooking utensils. There was wifi available and Netflix for the kids. The showers were a good size and one room had an en-suite which made this a little more private! BYO soap for vanity as this wasn’t supplied. The bedrooms had locks to the doors which was a bonus! Many of the bedroom windows didn’t have screens which was a bit unfortunate (being a hot time of the year we wanted to open the windows- we had to lock the doors to prevent kids from getting into the rooms with open windows). There was a lot of mosquitos (especially because of the absence of screens) so remember the spray!!! There were also a lot of spiderwebs (understandable given the location). The house is beautifully located with only a short walk across to the beach. No noise from any neighbours- truely a relaxing place to stay. Ample back yard space for the kids to run around. A gate to keep ur cars secured at night and plenty of parking. The owner was a pleasure to deal with and advised in advanced that own linen was required. The owner has a great amount of knowledge about Melbourne and surrounding areas and was so very helpful in offering suggestions for our travelling and stop off points. Would definitely recommend this place. Whilst it has quite simple facilities and the layout and design is simple and not cluttered, it’s simplicity is what makes this a nice place to stay. Would loved to have stayed longer.

A beautiful property with a view that just makes you want to relax and enjoy where you are. A beautiful open plan. I would have loved to stay longer.

The location is just opposite the waterfront. We can see the sunset in the house and the view is amazing. Our group really enjoys the stay and we highly recommend groups to come for a short weekend getaway.

Beach front property

Very basic house. Not much provided in the kitchen but the place was spacious and with big window for views

Absolutely stunning property and location. Maintained amazingly by Josie. Only thing I would recommend is letting guests know that need to bring own fitted sheets, but would definitely come stay again!

This place is AMAZING! The view was absolutely magnificent.. Very accommodating, great facilities and immaculately clean. My family and friends thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely booking this house again.

We absolutely enjoyed our time there, thank you!

We had a great time in Portarlington over New Years. The house was in a great spot, clean and was comfortable for 8 adults. I would recommend this property to any group wanting a get away. This is a shared property and you have the entire upstairs area, downstairs maybe occupied by someone else. There is a small electric BBQ & you will need to BYO linen. Lots of close by wineries to enjoy and an easy walk into town,

Owners didn't reply a request think this is very poor
