Charming Beach cottage in Somers

TrentonRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our hosts had thought of everything from the supply of dog bowls, pristine dog beds and everything else you'd need for your beloved dog. Our dog Ivy was right at home from the moment she arrived. Our family had a wonderful Easter; the room layout suited us with our two adult children and their partners. The outdoor eating space allowed us to socialise in what is effectively the second living space, and the outdoor spa was a real treat after a long day of beach walks and relaxing. All beds were incredibly comfortable, plentiful hot water for showers and an easy walking distance to the beach and Somers General Store.

3 br townhouse w spa close to beach and penguins!

NaomiRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We had unexpected few accidents just prior to the date of check-in... Jane was very sympathetic and showed her kindness which eased my worries. Despite we had to miss the first night of our stay due to car trouble , Jane offered an early check-in for us as the house was ready for us. In addition, one of my senior little doggies got injured his neck day before the check-in... I had to cancel booking for doggies at doggies' carer as one of my senior doggies couldn't stand and walk due to his sharp pain around his neck.... I was aware that Jane's property wasn't pet friendly so I considered to cancel. Yet Jane organized a kind arrangement for us and doggies which made possible to go on our long weekend away after all the odds! We will be happy to stay at Jane's again;) Thank you for the compliment milk and serials. Kids loved them.

Island Daze. Spa, Sauna, Cinema Room, Bay Views

GrantRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mauro on several occasions, and he’s consistently been exceptional. He’s incredibly responsive and provides accurate, extremely helpful information. The property itself is well-catered for, with excellent spaces and amenities. The spa and sauna are a must-try – they’re worth every penny! After a surf, they’re the perfect way to unwind and warm up. This is the second time we’ve booked this property, and we’ll definitely be back in the future. Thanks, Mauro! Best regards, Grant Street and co.

The cottage was beautiful, neat and tidy with plenty of character. The short walk to the beach and private, quiet street was ideal. I would definitely stay again.

Waterfront@Waves

FayeRating, 5 stars17 months ago
We had a wonderful stay at this apartment for a week. The apartment was in immaculate condition, spacious and had all the indemnities needed for a lovely week away. The stunning view from the balcony overlooking the beach was a delight. It is a fantastic location opposite the main beach and a 5-minute stroll to the main shops. Secure and easy parking. I would highly recommend this place.

Peaceful escape with nothing to do but enjoy the view and relax. Accomodation is comfortable and has all you need in terms of amenities. James is a great host and it’s great to have a dog friendly place with a great and secure yard.

Seaside Gem

JeanetteRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This house is amazing. Lots of space, clean and in a quiet suburb. So if you want to just relax and chill out and get away from the hustle and bustle, this is the perfect house. It's close to everything on the island, a short drive into Cowes and San Remo for shops. We totally enjoyed our stay. Peter is a great host and quick to respond to any questions you might have. AAA+++

My children and grandchildren stayed in this homely property with us for the weekend. The location and house was absolutely perfect and Richard was extremely kind as we hired the house for a specific purpose. The view from the property is stunning, which is hard to see just how fabulous it is from the photos. Thank you for a memorable weekend.

Island Escape with Pool

AlisonRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We loved our stay at Jane’s place. Her house is something very special and a beautiful place to be. Jane has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable! From a well stocked kitchen, coffee machine, and tvs in most bedrooms, to a beautiful outdoor bbq area with pool towels provided. Every last detail has been considered! We hope we can get to Philip Island again and be lucky enough to stay again! Thanks Jane :)

We have stayed at Jodie's place 2 or 3 times now, my kids love it, we walk to the beach in the morning and if hot enough, pool for rest of the day. It has everything that suits us as a family including the oval and skate park across the road.

Beachfront at Red Rocks! - with heated Swim Spa!

AlexRating, 5 stars6 months ago
The accommodation was a perfect size. Main bedroom is great, large with its own bathroom and enclosed outside area. Shared bedrooms maybe a bit small but they're just for sleeping anyway. Plenty of living space, an extra area for kids. Lots of toys and games and a billiard table. The swim spa wasn't heating for us but Chris the host did warn us due to unforeseen circumstances and offered a refund if we wished to cancel. Very close to a beautiful enclosed beach, not very busy and good for swimming. Far enough away from 5he bustle of Cowes centre but close enough to walk or drive in for supplies. Chris was very prompt in replying. Overall, a very good experience and I recommend this accommodation for groups or families. Thank you Chris for offering your place.

The Lodge at Merricks

KatherynRating, 5 stars5 months ago
The house was ideal for our large family, it was a fairly long drive to the beach and the road in is too narrow for our liking. That didn’t bother the rest of the family though. They all won’t to go back next year! I appreciated Nikki’s quick response to a couple of issues and the fact she was easy to contact.

We had a lovely stay! The host was very nice and always responded quickly to any questions we had, which made everything smooth and easy. The location is great—it's within a kid-friendly hotel, and we were able to access the hotel facilities, which was a big plus for our family. Everyone enjoyed the stay, and we'd definitely come back again. Highly recommend!
