Seashells was a home away from home, very comfortable, clean and had everything you could wish for. The owners live nearby & made sure we had a very enjoyable stay. You don’t need to shop before you arrive the pantry had all the basics plus fresh milk in the fridge.

Seashells Get Away

The unit was very clean and included everything we needed plus more. Location was great with a beautiful view of the bay. The hosts were very helpful and friendly. We would certainly recommend staying at Seashells. We were only able to stay 2 nights and would have loved to stay longer. Perfect for family or couples.

More than a room with a view!

This house has plenty of room, is clean and has everything you could possibly need and more. It is located in a beautiful location on the hill at Penneshaw. The view from the loungeroom and front deck looking across the water to Cape Jervis is breathtaking. I would certainly recommend SeaShells.

広さは大きく、全てが揃っている。 台所、風呂、リビング、寝室、全てが清潔で快適。風呂とトイレは別。バスタブもあり、ゆっくりくつろげる。 そして何よりオーナー夫妻がとても優しい。 「港まで歩いて行きたい」と言った私に、「道が分からないだろうから」と付いてきてくれた。 ツアーからの帰りも、暗くなったのを心配して、港まで迎えに来て、待っていてくれた。 まるで家族のように接してくれたオーナー夫妻に感謝！！ 素敵な旅の想い出をありがとう！

Short side trip on way back to melbourne

What a great house! Washed and dried some clothes, cooked a meal and had plenty of space (2 adults, 15 yo, 11 yo). Ian also opened up an extra room for us so that the kids could have a bedroom each and an extra tv. Very comfortable, clean house within a 5-10 minute walk of the ferry with everything you need. We would highly recommend it!

Très belle prestations

Le logement ressemble plus à une maison qu'à une chambre d'hôtel, tous est fait pour être comme chez nous.il ne manque rien, la salle a manger est bien aménagé avec deux canapés et grande table pour manger , la cuisine américaine ou on retrouve tous pour faire de bon repas, les chambres sont confortables et bien décorés. Une salle de bain avec douche et baignoire , cela est bien agréable, tout est très propre, . A l'extérieur se trouve deux terrasse avec barbecue.. Un vrai plaisir d'avoir passé s'est quelques jours, une belle destination près du ferry avec des hôtes charmants et très accueillants pour un tarif très correct. Merci
