Accessible Coastal Sanctuary – Pet Friendly, 50m Beach Pets Welcome

Tucked just 50 metres from the beach and a short walk to Kilcunda’s local gems, Killy Dora is where thoughtful design meets relaxed coastal living. Whether it’s your morning coffee from The Sticks, a long lunch at the Killy Pub, or a sunset stroll along Shelley Beach or the George Bass Coastal Walk, everything is truly at your doorstep. And with Phillip Island, Wonthaggi, and the Bass Coast’s best nearby, you’re perfectly placed for adventure—or doing absolutely nothing at all.
Perfect Location
Just 50m from the beach and 100m to the café and pub, Killy Dora is a modern 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat designed for families, friends, remote workers, and furry companions. Spacious, light-filled, and beautifully appointed, it features a wheelchair-accessible ensuite, flexible bedding, air conditioning, a pet-secure outdoor space, and high-speed WiFi throughout the home.

Coastal Comfort Year-Round
Killy Dora isn’t just a summer escape—it`s designed for year-round comfort. After a day of beach walks or exploring the Bass Coast, unwind by the cosy indoor fireplace, the perfect spot to relax with a book, a glass of wine, or great conversation. Whether it`s a winter getaway or a cool coastal evening, the fireplace adds warmth and atmosphere to this already welcoming space.

Stylish, Spacious & Designed with Heart
Originally relocated from a rural Victorian farm, Killy Dora has been thoughtfully transformed into a bright, contemporary sanctuary. With its coastal palette, open-plan layout, and abundance of natural light, it feels both grounding and uplifting.

The well-equipped kitchen (including an air fryer!) flows easily into the dining and lounge areas, making shared meals and downtime a breeze.

Two Beautiful Bathrooms
Now featuring two modern bathrooms, including a newly built, fully wheelchair-accessible ensuite, Killy Dora ensures comfort, dignity, and ease for guests with mobility needs.

The second bathroom features a full-size bathtub—perfect for a relaxing soak after a day at the beach.

Accessibility & Convenience
Killy Dora is proudly wheelchair-friendly, offering a ramp to the entrance, wide hallways, and accessible doorways into two of the bedrooms. The ensuite has been purpose-built with accessibility in mind, and the home layout is designed for easy navigation.

Perfect stay!

My weekend away staying at Killy Dora was absolutely perfect and I highly recommend staying here! The home was relaxing, had all the comforts of home, so clean, bed was comfortable, secure yard for my dog, great location to the beach, cafes and pub. Great if you enjoy walks and hikes with the George Bass track. I stayed by myself with my dog.. felt safe, this is a great stay/ location for families also. Vicky was so lovely to deal with. I will be booking another stay at Killy Dora.!
