We were very happy with our Stayz property!! We loved the location and convenience of the location. It was comfortable for two families. We are definitely coming back to this property and will recommend it to our family and friends looking to stay at Philip Island.

Perfectly comfortable
Lovely clean property, with great yard for the puppy. Good location for driving to places over the island and beyond. The only thing that would make the location better is a cafe within walking distance!

Let's race
Location of property in relation to the Grand Prix circuit was very convenient as traveling to and from over 3 days. Overall property was pleasant and well equipped however, it would have been nice to not have to clean the outdoor setting before using.

It's the extra little thing
The house was as described, but the extra little things like the board game and things around the houses to keep the kids out of your hair,very good info pack and much more made the stay that bit more relaxing. This was our first stay that wasn't a hotel and will be using the service again.

Great Family Location
Property was clean, spacious and great for our family. We loved the extras such as complimentary tea and cofee as well as puzzles and movies to keep us entertained. Location is central to the island’s attractions. Highly recommended.

What a breath of fresh air! The property was clean and tidy, spacious and inviting. It was everything we needed for a weekend away. Enough room for us to be able to relax with everything you need there, a home away from home. It had the cleaning things needed at hand and it had a first aid box and other goodies in drawers, so if you needed scissors, there were a pair, anything medical such as dettol, it was in the bathroom. Brilliant. There was plenty of information available on the kitchen table and plenty of room to be able to park your car, inside the fully gated property. Everything was thought of. Games and books are also available for your use, so we did a few puzzles as a family. Communication was perfect and any questions were answered. Check in and out were seemless too. Short drive to the back beaches such as Surf Beach or about a 9 min drive to Cowes. Thankyou for having us and we will be re-booking again, perfect for us to get away.
