We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were warmly welcomed by our friendly hosts Colin and Deb. The property was in excellent condition and we really enjoyed the use of the pool and tennis court. House is located in a great position, a short drive to the local shops at Blairgowrie or Sorrento. We would love to return for another stay in the future.

We were delighted to host Anna and her family. They enjoyed both the ambience of the property as well as exploring the local area. They were thoroughly professional, leaving the cottage, the pool and tennis court in exactly the condition they found them. We would highly recommend them as exemplary guests.
The apartment was ideal for our family of four—spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable, with the tennis courts and pool adding to the fun. The hosts were friendly, welcoming, and a pleasure to chat with.

Thank you so much to the home owners for making us feel so welcome, and allowing us to stay in such a beautiful home. Close to everything which makes the stay even more enjoyable especially for the kids. Pool was always clean and accessible.

Melissa and Jason were delightful guests.
They left the cottage impeccably clean and enjoyed their visit to the area. We will gladly welcome them again when they feel like a break from Melbourne.
We loved our weekend away at the cottage. It was so clean and well maintained. The host’s Colin and his wife Deborah were both so lovely, and helpful. The pool is absolutely beautiful and you have a lot of privacy. I would definitely go back there with my daughters. The location of the property was perfect close to the shops and the beach.

It was an absolute pleasure to host Natasha and her daughters. They enjoyed the pool and the surrounding beaches. They left our cottage in spotless condition and we would gladly welcome them back again whenever it suits them.
If you want privacy this is defiantly not the place for you, Colin was nice enough but the entire time it just felt like we are being watched and not welcome especially by Colin’s wife who made us feel unformtable using the bbq, and then even threatened to my daughter that she would be billed for having her feet on the couch, they couldn’t wait to get us out, was asked to then the music down, even though I was only playing classical music at a very low volume, just felt off the entire time, would not recommend at all, especially for the money we paid, felt like we were being watched the whole time.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 Jan 2026
It’s regrettable that Jye and his family misunderstand the nature of their leasing. Our cottage is a small boutique building fitted out for 4 people. Although guests are able to have friends visit, it’s unacceptable to have large families come and use the facilities spilling onto and using the owners space. They left the cottage in an absolute mess (it took twice as long to clean as normal) with spillages on the floor and have permanently stained a ghost chair (look up the value of these). These chairs were purchased in Malaysia. Also teenage children putting their feet on a $3000 sofa is unacceptable. As a consequence of this leasing the cottage has now been blocked from further leasings and will be withdrawn. We are not prepared to be disrespected by people sharing our home space. Completely unacceptable.
We stayed in this one bedroom apartment with swimming pool for four nights with our baby boy. The apartment is very spacious and comfortable, and beautifully furnished. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and helpful with information in the area. Highly recommend this property and can’t wait to visit again!
