    As usual, we had a fantastic experience staying at this Cowes holiday property! We've been coming back to this holiday apartment several times! From the moment we arrived, everything was exactly as described: clean, well-maintained and thoughtfully prepared. The space is bright, comfortable and fully equipped with everything we needed for a stress-free stay. The location is ideal: close to shops, restaurants, beach but still quiet enough to relax. The owners and the real estate agents are always responsive, helpful and attentive to our humble requests. We also appreciated the little touches like the high speed Wi-Fi, wide screen TV to watch the sporting events and the novels on the bookshelf. It truly felt like a home away from home. I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable beach rental to stay. We have already booked again for our next break!

    Property condition:

    Kerry G from Victoria, NA does not recommend this vacation rental.

    The apartment was in a good spot, and secure undercover parking but that is the only nice thing I could say. The apartment was not clean, not at all well maintained. There was no soap or body wash in the shower, the towels were very old and tatty. The pool table was broken on 1 side, there was not enough balls for the table and only 1 cue worked. There was no tea towel to dry the dishes. I just felt for the price we paid, it was not at all worth the money. It was disappointing. The apartment also had a lot of stuff everywhere, it was like a dumping ground for the owners. Very untidy.

    Travelled from interstate for a wedding. Found the apartment had everything we needed. Great safe access from the car park underneath, and good security for accessing the building generally. Would definitely stay again.

    Edwina A from Hampton Park, VIC recommends this vacation rental

    We rent this place 2 to 3 times a year. Every time we get there, the apartment is spotless clean. We like the living area as it is big enough to fit a crowd of 6 to 8 people easily without stepping on each other. The beach, the shops, the restaurants are close by. We also enjoyed the numerous walking tracks which offer us some exercise. The beds are very comfortable to give us a restful night sleep. In our last stay, we enjoyed the monthly beachside market where you can find some interesting treasures and nice street food too. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves the beach, good food and like some moments of relaxation. Our thanks also go to the helpful estate agent, Pago and the staff members for their excellent customer service, always trying to please us with our requests.

    We always book this apartment about twice yearly. It suits our needs for a nice break every time. We always find it clean when we get there. It is at walking distance to the beach, pub, restaurants, grocery stores and other amenities. The apartment is spacious enough to accommodate several people ( maximum 8 ) comfortably without invading each other’s space. We always have a great time when we go to this location. I would go back again next year and would recommend the place to anyone who would like a good beach holiday spot .

    Apartment was awesome, close to beach and shops.Heaps of info on the area.Beds were very comfortable and clean .Bathrooms were spacious .Had a bit of trouble getting to the keys as it was dark and hard to find the key box through road works at the back of store.Had a bit of trouble finding the apartment partially my fault for not reading instructions.Got in only to have trouble finding that the electricity was not on.Not realising that the little green key tag needs to be put into a slot,Not a normal Hotel room Tag. Could of used a sign on the key slot .But still got it working ok after ringing the after hours number.(That number should be displayed on the fridge)

    The apartment is conveniently located within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, supermarkets (Aldi, Coles, Woolwortha). During our stay, we also had to experience the Easter Beach Market on the Esplanade waterfront in Cowes. We also like the underground carpark which accommodates our two cars. It is easy access to activities like bowling, Mini Golf and trips to Nobbies, Penguin Parade, Cowes RSL for playing the Pokies. The wifi was really strong at every part of the apartment which was quite important to our family to stay connected with our friends during the Easter break. We also liked the entertainment package on the Smart TV that offers a variety of shows for all ages. We liked the place and we are going back there again in a not distant future.
