About this property
Cape Marengo - Stunning Ocean Views
My first impression upon viewing this property was, Wow.
Arguably, one the best ocean views I have ever encountered. I never imagined such a massive deck area overlooking the ocean with absolute uninterrupted views forever. Imagine, just relaxing and soaking up those sensational ocean views and letting life pass you by. Want more, the deck area also features a covered area with table and chairs and BBQ. These amazing ocean views extend into the kitchen, dining and living areas so, wherever you are, you are constantly reminded of the beauty that is Marengo.
You are also just a hop, step & a jump from the Marengo swimming beach where you can dive in for a dip, try your hand at fishing (freshly caught, straight onto the BBQ), enjoy the Great Ocean Walk or simply enjoy the Marengo Marine Sanctuary. With Apollo Bay just a 2 kms away or you can walk there via the walking track that links Marengo to Apollo Bay, where you can enjoy the many cafes, restaurants, retail outlets, hotels, supermarkets that dot the foreshore before returning to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of Marengo.
Internally, the property features a fully equipped kitchen (with all essentials provided), large dining (wall mounted LCD) and living (LCD & DVD) areas. There are 3 bedrooms (main with en suite & LCD), main bathroom, separate laundry and parking in a 2 car garage.
Also, as part of your holiday rental and situated adjacent to the main house, is a fully renovated modern studio apartment (very large), complete with queen bed (4th bedroom), en suite (shower, vanity & toilet), LCD & DVD with remote, fridge, reverse cycle air conditioning. Imagine, waking up in the morning to be greeted by sensational panoramic ocean views from your bed, life does not get much better than that.
We would love to welcome you to Cape Marengo on your next visit to beautiful Marengo.

Pictures are just an illusion.. Ain't what it's made out to be..
This place looks great with the pictures but on arrival it was a disappointment.. For the price we paid for our duration, it was not worth it.

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar 2020
Dear selim, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent stay. As I have attended this property many times and in conjunction with the owner have made significant changes to the property, I have to disagree with your critique. The top deck area is massive with undercover seating and BBQ. The crowning glory is the sensational ocean views you have overlooking the ocean and the Marengo beach and the coastline. The property is also in keeping with the theme and is well set up. Would I stay here, yes, no hesitation. The pictures are an accurate portrayal of the property taken as the property now stands. Kind Regards
