Nest on the Hill - A Luxurious Escape
Staying in Kurt’s beautiful house for the weekend was a dream. Everything was immaculately clean and high quality, the pool overlooking vineyards was just delightful in the warm weather. Four couples stayed and it never felt cramped, it is the perfect place for friends to stay. And so close to all of Red Hill’s best wineries, and only 5 minutes from Merrick’s for coffee in the morning! Kurt was kind, flexible and so attentive. Everything was absolutely perfect and we can’t wait to stay again.

Phillip Island Resort Coastal Villa
My family and I had an amazing time at this place! The location is incredibly convenient, with everything you need close by. The amenities are top-notch, including both indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court, a restaurant, and much more.

Beachfront at Red Rocks! - with heated Swim Spa!
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.

Accommodated everyone comfortably and catered to everyone’s needs. Beds were clean and comfortable. Beautiful kitchen, outdoor dining, outdoor gaming room, swimming pool, bbq area, walking track just out the back, minute’s from the beach and I could go on…. Lol. It has everything you would need for a great time away. Kim and the team were a great help whenever we needed something, they were very responsive. Responded straight away. Definitely would visit here again! ❤️

Private house rentals

Light filled, great location, accessible home.
Fabulous spacious and light-filled house! Appreciated that each room had a double or queen bed, with a number of lovely communal spaces as well. Great location near shops and cafes, with beach a short 10 minute walk. Claire was a very gracious host, providing some useful local recommendations and even some breakfast supplies of bacon, eggs and toast. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The Wülshed
This is a beautiful rustic authentic place to stay, lovingly preserved and restored, in glorious surroundings.

Water views, beach access
This was hands down the *best Airbnb* we’ve ever stayed in! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The property is **beautifully maintained** and **fully equipped** with everything we could possibly need – the kitchen had all the essentials (and more!), the living spaces were cozy, and the bedrooms were incredibly comfortable. Our kids absolutely *loved it here* – they haven’t stopped talking about the stay since we left! The space was so family-friendly, safe, and had plenty of room for them to play. It’s rare to find a place that keeps both adults and children this happy. The host was wonderful – responsive, thoughtful, and made us feel truly welcomed. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re looking for a **perfect home away from home**, especially with kids, look no further. We’ll definitely be returning! Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Plus, the location was perfect for exploring Phillip Island's attractions. Highly recommend! 5 Star

Myrtle House @ Red Rocks
This is a great, spacious and modern place to spend many many days. All you may need are already thought of and available in place. Just 8 minutes from all markets, and very quiet place. Lots of options for games, including a full size table tennis. All things considered, we had a great time and Yale's place is built so as to create great family memories! Thanks Yale!

The Wave Shack, Phillip Island
We had a fantastic weekend here, place was stunning and felt so luxurious and comfortable. We absolutely loved our stay and were sad to leave. Aura was a lovely host, extremely helpful recommendations and easy check in instructions!

Family Island Getaway - Short stroll to beach!
This place was amazing! Very easy to find, very quiet. Perfect for if you want to spend your time relaxing. Perfect location, only a short 6 minute drive into town or right outside is a bus stop if you wanted to get public transport into town, really can’t get much better than that. This place was so worth the money, it’s much bigger than what appears in the photos and has everything you could possibly need. Definitely will stay here again.
