Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our two families had a lovely stay at this great house. Fantastic location within a few mins walk to a couple of great coffee shops (one vegan) and other convenient shops (milk bar, liquor shop, fish and chips selling lots of good take away options including pizza, surf shop). Walking distance to a gorgeous back beach for walks (it is rough through so not suitable for swimming). Short drive to lots of great beaches and other places on the Peninsula, including the hot springs, Dunes golf course, St Andrews Brewery, Gunnamatta surf beach (patrolled) and many lovely front beaches and coastal areas House was very well set up with all the amenities you need and a fabulous large back yard. Great for families, our kids loved it. The backyard got a lot of sun in the morning but there was no shade, this was manageable for us but perhaps an umbrella or some kind of shade would have been good for the day time to allow for dining outside etc. The upstairs area was quite warm on hot days. Fans were provided but the air con doesn't really cool upstairs. We would stay here again though, ticked lots of great boxes. Loved the area and house. ##### Emma M. ## 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) > > [Travelodge Hotel Melbourne Docklands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Melbourne-Docklands.h3033860.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ambassador Playa I](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benidorm-Hotels-Hotel-Ambassador-I.h1430494.Hotel-Information) > > [Quincy Hotel Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Quincy-Hotel-Melbourne.h57242156.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Melbourne.h23775.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waverley International Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Waverley-International-Hotel.h3504259.Hotel-Information) > > [Ovolo South Yarra](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Ovolo-South-Yarra.h63305062.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in County Down](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-County-Down.d6054336.Hotel-Destinations) > > [1 Hotel Copenhagen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copenhagen-Hotels-1-Hotel-Copenhagen.h915768.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Apartments Royal Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Royal-Gardens.h425401.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Casablanca Mallorca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Calvia-Hotels-Hotel-Y-Apartamentos-Casablanca.h8763741.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantis Hotel, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Atlantis-Hotel.h864494.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) > > [Estival Torrequebrada](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benalmadena-Hotels-Estival-Torrequebrada.h527661.Hotel-Information) > > [Oasis Studios](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malia-Hotels-Oasis-Studios.h44266347.Hotel-Information) > > [Apeiron Blue Santorini - Sustainable Adults Only 14+](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-Apeiron-Blue-Santorini.h68434795.Hotel-Information) > > [Albert 1'er Hotel Nice, France](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nice-Hotels-Albert-1er-Hotel-Nice.h81797.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cottage in the Wood](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malvern-Hotels-The-Cottage-In-The-Wood.h16337.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson on Flagstaff Gardens Melbourne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Radisson-On-Flagstaff-Gardens-Melbourne.h82772.Hotel-Information) > > [Space Hotel - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Space-Hotel-Hostel.h2100092.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Melbourne Southbank](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Mercure-Melbourne-Southbank.h898381.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza Melbourne by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Melbourne-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Melbourne.h845390.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Dublin (DUB) to Paisley (GLA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dub/gla/dublin-to-glasgow) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Tbilisi (TBS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/tbs/london-to-tbilisi) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Maastricht-Airport (MST)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/mst/manchester-to-maastricht) > > [British Airways Gatwick (LGW) to Elche (ALC) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/british-airways-from-gatwick-to-alicante-intl/ba/lgw/alc) ### Packages > [Santorini](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/luxury-holidays/177970/Santorini) ### General > [Visit Bruges](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bruges.dx6155224)
