We had a wonderful stay at Ocean Beach Retreat. The place had everything we needed for our beach stay. The beds were super comfy, the outdoor area was fantastic and we had most meals outside. It also has a great yard which my dog enjoyed immensely. The location itself was fantastic, so close to the beach, lighthouse and shops. Stuart, the host was very friendly and helpful and his communication was very prompt. We are already discussing coming back again next year. Thank you very much for making our Point Lonsdale stay so relaxing and comfortable!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Location is great however house was not very clean. We were forced to buy mattress protectors as ones on bed were heavily stained and very yellow. The BBQ was very dirty which was a huge disappointment, this forced us to eat out. Taps in laundry do not work and fridge was dirty. Plenty of cobwebs and dust is a clear sign of no professional cleaning.
