Ocean Grove house
Excellent property for family with dog. Good location, comfy and nice outdoor set up. Kitchen appliances not user friendly and disappointing amount of toilet paper and washing powder on hand. Otherwise well supplied. Extra hand towels and some face washers would have been appreciated.

Exceptional property
Fabulous outside seating area with lovely open space and under covered seating and out door kitchen and pot belly.The inside layout is perfect for a couple or a family group with well equipped kitchen and sociable lounge area.All the bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless with lovely comfortable bedding. The location was perfect, very quiet and only a short walk to the beautiful beach and Ocean Grove is not too far to walk or just a short drive and has everything you would need.Includeing the best pie shop in Oz. We’ve stayed in numerous properties around the world and this is certainly in our top 5.
