About this property

Thalassa House Coastal Retreat Dromana - 250m from beach

Just a 250m walk from the property to the beach, hear the sound of the waves crashing while sitting on your secluded vine covered alfresco deck. Make Thalassa House your coastal home away from home. An easy stroll from the main Dromana supermarket, cafes and restaurants, leave your car in the driveway.

Key features of Thalassa House:
• 250 metres from the beach
• A stones throw to the supermarket, cafes and restaurants
• Secluded and quiet, surrounded by landscaped gardens
• Spectacular open kitchen/living/dining area opening up onto alfresco deck
• Cosy open fire for winter stays
• Close to all wineries and major tourist attractions
• Pet friendly

The heart of the house is the luxurious open kitchen, living and dining area. The kitchen is an entertainers delight with ample bench space and large 900mm Smeg oven and gas cooktop. Perch around the kitchen bench on one of the barstools for some lazy conversations over dinner prep, whether you are cooking up a storm or serving up some local takeaway. Open up the panoramic kitchen window and call the family in for dinner from metres away.

Enjoy your culinary creations indoors at the Tasmanian oak dining table with seating for 6 inside, or at the generous outdoor dining table on the covered timber deck to maximise the coastal resort feel. Enjoy your morning cuppa on the outdoor lounge gazing up at Arthur Seats Eagle chairlift, or sit down at twilight with a charcuterie board and your favourite glass of Mornington Peninsula wine.

Complete with a wood fire, Bose wave radio and Samsung SMART TV with Netflix/Stan capabilities, the indoor lounge is a great space to chill out with lovely views of the back yard. There are also board games in the study nook for old fashioned entertainment. There is reverse cycle air conditioning in the living area and ducted heating to the entire house. There is a second living area at the front of the property along with a second TV and DVD player. This allows groups to have several private spaces to spread out and create peaceful areas to unwind.

The master bedroom is located at the back of the property and opens up onto the alfresco deck. It has a QB, walk in wardrobe and an ensuite. The second bedroom at the front of the property has a QB and BIR. The third bedroom has a king single bed, a single bed and BIR.

There are two bathrooms - one ensuite and one main bathroom. The main bathroom has an open shower and giant mirror with designer timber vanity as well as separate claw foot bath. There is a full laundry in the property with washing machine, dryer, iron and ironing board.

The house is ensconced in a lush mature landscaped garden. At the rear, there is a private and secluded lawn area with a BBQ. See what goodies are growing in the raised vegie gardens and wash the sand off your feet in the outdoor shower.

This property welcomes pets - with owners prior approval. Please bring your pet's own bedding and bowls. Please note that under no circumstances are pets to be left unattended inside the house and are not allowed on furniture or beds. Damage will incur charges.

Great location but …
We enjoyed our stay overall mainly due to the location of the property and general layout of the home but we did find that there were some problems which has affected our overall rating. We wouldn’t expect these issues especially when paying top dollar. The issues were: 1. We found that there was a mismatch between the photos and description from the listing and reality. A) The photos were very vibrant and bright but in reality the main area was dark during the day even when we opened up all windows. B) The Greek beach style theme wasn’t really reflected either throughout the home. We envisaged something similar to the Greek restaurant in McCrae which has fresh and vibrant colours. C) The listing states three bathrooms but there were only two. 2. We had things that weren’t working as you’d expect, eg. Roller door for ensuite kept on jamming (needed to fix multiple times to function), toaster - half , non functioning multiple ready hang blinds, kitchen drawers 3. The bathrooms were unsafe due to the concrete floors when water sitting on top. In particular unsafe for kids seniors and physically challenged people. Not sure how council approved?

the accommodation was lovely and so close to the beach and shops. The owner got back to us immediately when we had a query, she was very obliging. Would definately recommend for bigger families. Will stay there again when overseas family visit

Nice stay
Nice property. However, no hairdryer was very disappointing and the can opener didn’t work which caused a major drama at dinner time when everyone was expecting a dinner which didn’t happen. Raced out to the closest supermarket to buy a can opener and couldn’t find one . I know it sounds like nothing but ended up being a major stress when we were trying to relax. For a house of this calibre, the lack of hair dryer and unusable can opener was disappointing to say the least. However, overall it was a nice stay and we were very grateful of the bottle of wine to welcome us - a nice touch
