Great Location in Mccrae

We really enjoyed our stay. Felt like a short trip to bali but better because I think that the beach in Mccrae is the best on the Mornington peninsula, and you can walk to the lighthouse beach easier than driving and trying to find a park in peak times. The accommodation was perfect for us and the outdoor shower was a favorite after a long day at the beach. Linen everything was great. We hope to be back! Thank you

lovely place close to beach

A clean, well-lit, modern and very comfortable place within easy walking distance to the beautiful beach. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The outside area is lovely on a summer's day. The kitchen area is small and cooking relies on the outside BBQ, so would not recommended for preparing a complex gourmet feast. It was fine for our small family though and our toddler daughter loved playing in the yard and admiring the fish in the pond.

Felix thanks for your tips, however i would like to comment that we did in fact have a microwave, plus there was a seperate pot element with the barby. also there was a slow booker and fry pan in the cupboard. hope to see your family again in the future.

Peaceful stay at a lovely location

I was after a peaceful weekend away down by the beach to unwind from hectic metro-Melbourne. This ground floor apartment was everything I was hoping for. It was peaceful, modern, clean and very comfortable. It had all the amenities I needed. The outside area was serene and lovely with mature trees and a fish pond. There were also various spots to sit and enjoy the space. Location was also great. About a 5 minute walk to the beach and cafes. Check in/out was a breeze and keys available at the property. No need to travel elsewhere to collect. The owners were lovely and quick to respond to queries. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend or return.

The perfect getaway - within walking distance to all you need!

This unique property is immaculate and centrally located to all the peninsula has to offer. A great space surrounded by lush gardens, the ground floor apartment is really well fitted out and ideal for walking to the beach, restaurants and shops. Check-in and check-out was very simple and Gillian ensured we had everything we needed and available should we have any questions. We hope to return again soon. Thanks again Gillian!
