Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful Rye property. The house had a modern beachy vibe that felt relaxing and welcoming from the moment we arrived. It was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The location was excellent — just a short walk to the beach, close to the local Milkbar, and positioned in a peaceful part of town with lovely views. We found it to be both convenient and relaxing, with easy access to everything we wanted to do on the Peninsula.Inside, the home was spacious and well equipped with modern appliances, quality furnishings, and thoughtful touches. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the living spaces were ideal for unwinding after a day out.One of the highlights was the fire pit — we used it almost every evening and it added such a cosy, fun atmosphere to our trip. The outdoor area was perfect for enjoying the sea air and the quiet surroundings.The check-in and check-out process was smooth and professional, and the team at Jellis Craig made everything easy from start to finish.Overall, a fantastic stay and we’d absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway on the Mornington Peninsula. ##### Janice F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pan Pacific Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Pan-Pacific-Melbourne.h2432787.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Southern Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Great-Southern-Hotel-Melbourne.h27851.Hotel-Information) > > [Hôtel Beige](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels-Hotel-Beige.h1489.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradis Plage Surf Yoga & Spa resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamri-Hotels-Paradis-Plage-Surf-Yoga-Spa-Resort.h5089326.Hotel-Information) > > [TURIM Algarve Mor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Portimao-Hotels-Turim-Algarve-Mor-Hotel.h12424932.Hotel-Information) > > [Palladium Hotel Cala Llonga - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Eulalia-Del-Rio-Hotels-Palladium-Hotel-Cala-Llonga-Adults-Only.h4021404.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Bulgaria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Bulgaria-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-0-d26-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Ovolo South Yarra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Paddington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paddington-London-Hotels.0-n800049-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [TravelodgeUK Hotels in Hunstanton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hunstanton-Hotels-Travelodge-UK.0-0-d181025--bTravelodgeUK.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [Toxotis Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Larnaca-Hotels-Toxotis-Hotel-Apartments.h65375551.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Melbourne Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Melbourne-Airport.h12401.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Lygon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Carlton-Lygon-Lodge.h4790050.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near La Pinta Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Pinta-Beach-Hotels.0-l553248622811248714-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Masham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Masham-Hotels.s50-0-d6055107.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Bull and Townhouse, Beaumaris- The Inn Collection Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beaumaris-Hotels-The-Bull-Beaumaris.h14906044.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) ### Packages > [Eiger](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eiger-Grindelwald.d6067837.Attraction)
