GUEST REVIEWS

We absolutely loved our stay, we had the whole family together from Syd & Melb for a week & it was the best trip! The house is great & the location is perfect, walk out the front & you are at the beach & walk 10mins to get to the main shopping strip with so many retailers to choose from. Thank you Holiday Shacks

We had a great family holiday at Ocean Luxe Retreat. It was ideal for multiple families with young kids and we had lots of fun playing on the tennis court and swimming in the pool. The house was immaculate and had great facilities!

We had an amazing stay at Anchor Beachfront house! Right on the beach with amazing views overlooking the ocean. You can enjoy the view from the relaxing front porch, sometimes glistening sparkling sunshine, dolphins, and at other times windsurfers on the windy days. The living room dining room and kitchen make the most of the view with the expansive living area. Very well stocked kitchen to prepare meals. Great place for when a family gets together, reunion or just a quiet retreat. An altogether amazing experience! We will be back!

Glen Shian is ideally placed – a short walk to the beach & a short drive to Mt Eliza Village. The layout worked really well for us, with 5 seperate sleeping areas (double beds), 4 indoor common areas & ample outside areas (including pool-side). The choice of common-areas allowed us to combine for meals / games or break into smaller groups & ‘chill out’. The premises were modern, clean & well maintained and Holiday Shacks staff were there to greet us & made themselves available for assistance.

Absolutely amazing experience with Holiday Shacks doing everything to find us a house at the last minute. I cannot speak highly enough of the service they provided and the beautiful house they found for us. I will definitely go through Holiday Shacks again.

Perfect for a family getaway. Plenty to keep young kids occupied and a good walk to the ocean for beach combing. Very well-equipped kitchen and comfortable bedding.

We stayed at Coastal Tranquility hosted by Andrea. Our two night stay was superb, Andrea’s communication and hospitality superlative and the attention to detail in the styling, decor and provision of home and kitchen wares beyond brilliant. The house boasts beautiful ambience, high ceilings, natural light and wonderful views. We felt like we were on cloud nine and Andrea’s thoughtful touches in our welcome were very much appreciated.10/10 for comfort, cleanliness, ease of communication and luxury atmosphere. What a brilliant home and weekend. Thoroughly recommended.

What a house! Everything was immaculate and hassle-free. We hardly left the house in 3 days because it just had everything we needed – we felt like we were the Kardashians!!!!! Supermarket, cafes and take away food all close by and the views were amazing – we slept with the blinds up! Thank you for an amazing stay.

We had a lovely 2 week stay. House was clean and well laid out for a family. Check in process with keyless entry was great. We appreciated being able to bring our dogs. Almost everything you could need for a super comfortable stay.

Jenny

Loved our stay at Ocean Luxe. Very spacious Size of property meant you didn’t have neighbours on top of you. Great location – walking distance to Rye Ocean beach and short drive to Gunnamatta. Lots to do at house – tennis court, pool & pool table. Very clean inside. Only criticisms would be the gardens around house and tennis court table were very overgrown, some curtains were damaged and dishwasher wasn’t working properly. But none of these took away from an amazing stay. Would highly recommend.

Our group had a wonderful time at Coastal Tranquillity. All four bedrooms are well appointed with very comfortable beds, with the highlight being a huge master suite complete with luxe bathroom and balcony with bay views. The 2nd bedroom has a queen bed with ensuite and bedrooms 3 and 4 also have queen beds and are adjacent to a full size bathroom. The kitchen is huge, contemporary and well-appointed with a nespresso machine, – large fridge with filtered water dispenser. The lounge and dining areas are really comfortable with a large TV and Netflix. Although it was too cold to enjoy while we were there the outdoor pool and entertainment area would be perfect for the summer months. An added bonus was that it was in walking distance to restaurants in Rye so our group was able to walk to and from dinner without the hassle of worrying about driving. We will definitely stay there again!

Thank you Holiday Shacks for another wonderful stay at Newhaven . We were lucky with perfect summer weather so the pool, spa and tennis court were fully utilised. The kitchen had every thing we needed and the views of the bay and the city are truly spectacular especially sitting out on the deck or lounging on the plush leather Jasper couches .. Quality linen and towels . This house really has everything. Holiday Shacks so easy and helpful to deal with too. We will be back next year.

Amalfi Dream is a fantastic property – well done thought out and perfect for our family. Our second time there and will book again.

Sarah O

We had a wonderful time at Ocean Luxe Retreat. The house, pool, tennis court and general amenities were just perfect for a family Summer holiday. Highly recommend.

We have now enjoyed several stays at Coastal Tranquility. What a wonderful property in a suburb location. The house is incredibly spacious and would comfortably sleep several families or a group of friends. We also had the pleasure of spending a romantic weekend as a couple there recently and it was fabulous. The kitchen is better stocked than our kitchen at home – so many utensils, crockery, glassware, cookware etc. There is a lovely lounge area where you can relax or watch the TV in front of the two fireplaces. The outside area is perfect for an afternoon glass of wine and a dip in the pool. And you can’t miss an early evening drink on the upstairs deck to watch the sun go down with lovely treetop and bay views. Andrea is a perfect host, check in was a breeze and she was very responsive if we had any questions. Overall we highly recommend the house with its multiple bedrooms and bathrooms and stylish decor. This has become a go to for us when looking for a quick weekend escape from Melbourne. Next time we definitely intend to stay longer!

Sue

Amalfi Dream was the perfect weekend escape for our young family. Plenty of space. A short walk to the shops and the beach. Heated pool and hot tub. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend!

Lisa

Beachside Lane is a beautiful, very well fitted out and a great location for the beach, the city and the Mornington Peninsula.

Kerryn R

Byron was a complete delight in every aspect and we were particularly pleased to have chosen this haven to celebrate a significant birthday. The lay out, decor and equipment were all first class and suited our needs to perfection. The service provided when requested was immediate and good. The location was ideal to our needs as we could get around the Peninsula with ease and do everything and go everywhere we needed. We had a gourmet chefs dinner one evening and the facilities were perfect.
