Perfect location for a beach getaway. Walking distance to the beach, shops, cafes and restaurants.The pool was a bonus, as was the simple gesture of the "welcome hamper" which always make guests feel special, valued, and at home.

Absolutely disgusted never felt so sick first time something like rhis has happened to us we are at phillip islads every year for the sbk. And this is what happened.

Excellent location

This property was great for a family holiday (2 adults, 1 child) and in an excellent location, walking distance to the beach and town. The check-in instructions were a little confusing as they referred to an underground car park which did not exist, but we were able to park in the open air car park.

The apartment was close to all dining options and shopping, beach was around the corner, you could go for late night walks and enjoy the sun set, no need to look for a car park all the time. Loved the welcome basket left in the apartment for us, apartment was neat and tidy and more than enough space for 4 adults.
