Retro Retreat - Old school fun

Take a trip down memory lane with this classic 70's beach house, away from the town centre and in its own aura of peace and quiet with a picturesque ocean outlook. A spacious garden surrounds the property. With 2 comfortable bedrooms upstairs and a rumpus/third bedroom downstairs, this older style home features open living and established comfort with a price to match.

*Property has a unit below and garage which is permanently tenanted separately*

Linen not provided - Hire available

Strict No Party Policy (schoolies, hens, bucks etc.) See terms and conditions

Just a few general words about the property.

It is important to understand this property is a holiday rental, not a shared space or principle place of residence, which ensures you privacy and quiet enjoyment. It is also professionally managed, giving you peace of mind of 24/7 support by a local, just around the corner.

Pricing is based around seasons, length of stay and number of guests. It is important all bookings reflect the exact number of guests. If this changes, you must contact us. Every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the published rates across all booking platforms, however Great Ocean Road Real Estate Holidays reserves the right to correct pricing errors.

Unless otherwise previously agreed, all stays must only be used for private residential usage and to accommodate the number of guests stated on your booking. Unless ‘Pets Welcome’ is advertised, the property is strictly no pets.

All holiday accommodation bookings are accepted on the basis that all occupants will treat the property with the same respect as their own home in accordance with the “House Rules”. Noise audible outside the property is prohibited between 10pm and 8am.

We love professionally managing holiday homes and guest experiences and look forward to welcoming you to our backyard.

As it says on the box
It is not in town. It is not modern. It is not expensive. This is the second time i have chosen this accomodation; we returned because it was good value and comfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The bathrooms and toilets were miserable. Actually did not use the bathroom at all. I do understand they mentioned retro although rates changed were not!! They seriously need to re do all their bathrooms and toilets and make them more spacious.

Beautiful views
Lovely retro house with fantastic views. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable lounge. Bedrooms very good sizes. Driveway difficult to find - can only be accessed via Deans-Marsh road, not on Smithers Street . Only suggestion is to have the house a little cleaner, especially the windows facing the view and the bathroom. Otherwise fantastic, we had a wonderful stay.
