A great place to stay, quiet, comfortable and relaxing. A fantastic family house for a perfect beach holiday that could use a bit of an update and spruce up ..,
A working Vacuum cleaner, new mattresses and maybe enough crockery for all of us ….see you next year

We're delighted to hear that you had a fantastic weekend with us. We a]ppreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Good little value for money place. I don't mind bringing all linen if the price is reasonable. Only fault is the upstairs bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned since the last guests. Pretty gross.

Hi Tim, we appreciate your review and apologise for the inconvenience. We encourage our guests to contact us if something's faulty at the property, especially if it is not cleaned to your satisfaction upon arrival for immediate action. Rest assured we are on top of this. We will coordinate with the housekeeping team for awareness and action. It has been a pleasure hosting you.
A nice property however very basic and could be so much better. Couches and beds uncomfortable and no cleaning products. No dish washing product at all. Hard to clean if not supplied. One roll of toilet paper. Only 5 x bowls when it sleeps 8. Nice walk into town.

This house could be nice
Vacuum, oven, fan upstairs all faulty, stairs to loft are essential a carpeted ladder - quite dangerous, plates, cups and doona cover all dirty and had to be cleaned when we arrived,no BBQ cleaning gear, nothing to light stove. This could be a nice house to stay in if basic maintenance was done. As it was we spent much of the week cleaning and throwing out food which failed to cook in faulty oven.

Thank you for taking the time to review Tim. The oven has since been replaced with a new oven. I believe the owners also delivered a bench top electric oven for you to use during your stay and also reimbursed you for house items you were required to purchase, apologies for this inconvenience. Kind regards, Great Ocean Road Holidays
Great location walking distance to everything house was great
Rental company were great sent everything we needed prior to arriving via text and email would highly recommend . Pet friendly and great fenced in properti

Good family weekend
When we first arrived the house had a stale smell. After opening some windows and an scented air freshener, we didn’t notice it. The house was neat and simple and met all of our needs for the 3 nights we were there.
We had a minor issue with the handrail on the stairs from the first to the second level but we reported it and it was managed to our satisfaction.
The stairs to the third level loft are custom-made and very steep and narrow. We had children aged 5-13, who didn’t mind the climb upstairs to the loft, where the 4 single beds are.
The small side yard meant we could bring our 2 dogs along, which was great.
All in all, we enjoyed our stay and we would stay at this property again.

Dear Krystyna, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay. Disappointing you did not enjoy your stay at the property. I will be visiting the property shortly, and if necessary, in conjunction with the owners will critique the property, although it is quite comfortable. In the future if you stay at a property the price you ultimately pay for your stay will be a reflection of your accommodation. Kind Regards

A lovely house
We enjoyed a lovely week before and during Christmas. Pet-friendly which was a huge bonus. Spacious, well-equipped but a working hose for after-beach visits and some form of sun shelter over the outside table would have been welcome with the sunny days. Wifi also would have been welcome given many places providing it but it wasn’t part of our rental so that is fine. But is very much becoming essential and worth considering. A great location. Easy walk to town. Quiet. Air-con and heating available. We didn’t need the loft but bedrooms well set up.

Genuinely dog friendly!!
We really enjoyed our recent stay at Sea Loft & were sooo happy when we arrived to find the yard was shady, had cover in case of poor weather & was fully, adequately fenced: so many 'dog friendly' properties are anything but The house was clean, stayed cool in hot weather & was conveniently located. The loft does require young legs (not too young!) but our teenage daughter loved it. We'd happily stay at Sea Loft again - and so would our dog!!
