The location was great we have stayed at this complex before this time we had apartment 2 facing the street. Just a short stroll away from shops. Couldn’t ask for a better location.However the apartment wasn't as clean we found sand under the couch and a baby's dummy under the tv.The down side are the stairs lugging luggage and shopping up and down.Also the door to the apartment doesn't have a deadlock even though it locks from the inside it unlocks by just holding down handle not safe if you have young toddler if they get out the stair case just outside door id dangerous.Pillows can do with a change as they were hard and uncomfortable.However we would stay there again because of the location.
Easy check in, short walk to beach, shops and cafes/restaurants.

Our stay was good , the property was clean and very nice but it was not easy to find the parking at the back, this should be highlighted when pickup the key! NO LIFT at the apartment and it was a nightmare to bring our stuffs up, I don’t recommend it for anyone who can’t do stairs specially elderly people!

Reviewer Comments:
The property was ok, plenty of room for the kids to enjoy their time. My biggest concern was that the when the room was locked from the inside, all it took was to pull the handle down for it to unlock. There were no other safety locks higher. We had to barracks the door with chairs. This wasn't even enough for my 4 year old who couldn't find me (in bed) so he moved the chairs and his father found him in the hall way after hearing some noise and decided to get up and investigate. We couldn't sleep after this thinking that the two year old would do the same. We were booked to stay for two nights however decided to leave a night early due to the safety of our children. Room is fine for adults and older children however don't recommend for younger kids. In saying that, the real estate agent we booked through was professional and accommodating with our arrival and departure times.

Reviewer Comments:
The apartment was very spacious with good amenities. Close to everything and parking out the back. It would be good if the key to the sliding door was available as our 2 year old was constantly opening it and going outside. Also the front door was able to be opened by him which wasn’t great but apart from that it was a great place to stay.

Very close to town,Walk to pubs and RSL club5 minutes to Race Track
The unit was very large and would suit a family really well. The king size bed and ensuite was very comfortable. And a very large back bedroom with 3 beds with its own bathroom.The unit was clean but very clinical was just like it was just being handed over to the owner, no coffee or tea bags nothing in any cupboard. The only downers were there was no brochures about Phillip Island and places to go. Normally there is a welcome kit in all the apartments we have hired.

We had a lovely stay in Cowes. Our unit was convenient to restaurants, shops, markets and most importantly, the beach! The air-conditioning worked well for hot days and the space in the bedrooms and living areas was perfect for our family of 5. And having 2 bathrooms was ideal. We loved sitting out on the balcony to enjoy the cool evenings and watching all the cars/people go by. Parking at the back of the unit was perfect and there was secure access. The unit was clean and check-in/out was easy. We visited many of the popular attractions on Phillip Island- book the Penguin Plus tour. You won't be disappointed. Would definitely recommend this unit to friends!

This very spacious apartment is better than the photos depict. It is in a great, central location. Easy walk to all the restaurants and Cowes beach. Despite being above a shop and on the main strip, it was very quiet. Sue from First National was very obliging and easy to communicate with when booking our stay. We would definitely stay here again.
