Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Torquay - Jan Juc

Paddy was responsive and helpful accomodating the needs of our extended family to make the most of our long weekend. It was the perfect location too. Felt warm and cosy and bright when the sun popped out with all the skylights and beautifully styled. Quite a large secure yard for our dog too. She loved the opportunity to join us on holiday and check out the waves. It’s an Immaculately renovated beach house with old style charm- would definitely stay here again. Thanks paddy!

This was our 3rd (or 4th!) stay at the Cottesloe Beach Shack. Gorgeous stay as always, Rebecca super helpful and we just love this place. Super dog friendly with lots of space for everyone. The recent renovations and updates are gorgeous, including the new outdoor space - we can't wait to get back to use it in some warmer weather! Look forward to getting back again soon.

We had a fantastic stay at Wattle Bird for a friend's getaway. The house was spacious and comfortable—perfect for our group of 8 adults and 2 dogs. Rob and Di were exceptional hosts, warm and welcoming, and made us feel right at home. The property had everything we needed to enjoy our time in Barwon Heads, with standout amenities like the BBQ, hot tubs, and a cozy fireplace. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Wattle Bird and would love to return!

We had a great time and excellent interactions with Sally. The place was wonderful and we really enjoyed our time there. Sally was responsive and very quick to sort out every question we had, and made us feel very much at home. The only downside was leaving - we wanted to stay there forever. It was an amazing time and we are looking forward to staying again soon!

We had the best stay at the Sandpiper House with Karen and Cameron as our hosts. Super tidy house with a great view and we were also spoiled with complimentary breakfast during our stay 😊 we had an easy check in with an even easier and simple check out. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone visiting the area!

We felt right at home and at peace the minute we arrived. Despite miserable weather on our arrival, it didn’t dampen our experience in any way - it was a wonderful place to decompress and just enjoy a slower pace, and our young girls were ecstatic to play upstairs and in the yoga studio. Thank you Natalie for sharing such a warm and welcoming retreat x

Relax, unwind, recharge. Mayfair Park was fabulous for all of this. The wildlife around the property was delightful - sitting on the front deck sky gazing or on the back deck watching blue wrens flit here and there. For our active 12yo son - heaps of sporting options which didn't require another person...some that we willingly joined. The 15yo daughter enjoyed the peace, sketching, reading and atmospheric photography. Kitchen well equipped and close enough to amenities. Hope to come back again. Thank you Lance! K.

Simon and Mella’s home was absolutely perfect for our family wedding weekend. The house was ideal for three families and our grandchildren loved the games and trampoline. The house well equipped and had everything (and more) than we could have asked for. The views were magnificent and the surrounds were so very peaceful. Time in the hammock and looking out to the ocean is a must if you stay at 180 Vista! Simon and Mella responded immediately to any questions l had and were extremely accommodating with check in times. Thank you Simon and Mella!

We felt very welcome at Lianas place, it's very nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. Definitely recommend a stay over there :)

We were down for the weekend to watch the footy. Lots of places booked out, it was a busy weekend in Geelong - boat show/racing, regatta, footy, air show next weekend, lucky to find Nicks place available. Walking distance to GMHBA stadium and eateries and waterfront. Nice place, old unit that’s been done up. Garage is small/low, our hatchback fitted but an SUV wouldn’t. A comfortable stay in a good location. Nick was a friendly and helpful host.

Michelle is the best hostess I've come across in a long while. The kitchen was well equipped, even down to a box of bandaids! Everything was so comfortable and the location is great for everything you want to do on the Penninsula. We'll definitely return. Thank you!

Capel Luxe was perfect for our family of five. We were impressed with how spotlessly clean the place was which contributed to a relaxed stay. The host was very responsive to messages. Thanks!

Host was easy to communicate with and was understanding. The place and distance to the beach were great. Would stay there again :)

Deb & Pete we're great hosts and ensured we had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay in their well set up apartment that worked well for us for the 3 nights we stayed. Highly recommend staying here and we would certainly en joy staying here again.

We had a lovely time with Liana. She was very welcoming and made us feel at home. Her unit is cosy and nicely decorated and the courtyard is inviting.

Great spot to stay along the great ocean road. Spent one night with family and really enjoyed this space - wished we had more time to spend using the grounds of the resort. Will be back!

We had a lovely stay at the bungalow in Torquay! The place was warm, beautifully set up, and felt like a perfect home away from home. Peter was a fantastic host – incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always quick to respond to any questions. Communication was smooth from start to finish, which made everything so easy. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in a beautiful location! We will definitely come back :)

Lovely tiny place with a lot of personal touches, which make the place unique and cozy. Great location.

Great little cottage in a beautiful bush setting. Plenty of space for two couples, with comfy beds and everything we needed for a relaxed stay. Peaceful location, yet still an easy drive to Lorne. We really enjoyed our time here!

The property was at an amazing location. Close to all the activities we had planned including the hot springs and St. Andrew’s Beach Brewery. Nik was timely with his responses and gave clear instructions. Lovely space for 2!

Absolutely beautiful place, The hosts were really friendly and very helpful. Even gave us fererro roches and fresh fruit. Offered us late checkout too ! Really kind hosts. Would stay here again for sure and 100% would recommend this beautiful spot.

Just what you want to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city. Clean, quaint, and peaceful. Also feeding the parrots was a huge bonus :)

Great stay, short drive to the beach. Spa and sauna were easy to use with clear instructions from Paul on how to use both. Complete privacy separate the main house to the back where the bungalow is Would definitely come back again :)

Joleen and I loved Jan’s place. Honestly it was well worth every penny. We really appreciate the time and effort you have put to make us feel comfortable and relaxed. We will definitely come back, thank you Jan and Pete!
