Jus perfect
Caz’s place is lovely, homey and spotlessly clean! You won’t want for anything as Caz has already thought of it - it is all there. Excellent communication and instructions. Her bed mattresses are No. 1 quality! We will definitely stay again. Thanks Caz. Liz

Beautiful and restful apartment near Queenscliff
Travelling from East Gippsland to Port Fairy we needed a night in between to rest, especially after travelling on the ferry across the Bay. We were lucky enough to find this pretty accommodation near Queenscliff. The kitchenette was well stocked with breakfast and snack goodies. Two lovely bedrooms, exactly as pictured featured thr MOST comfortable beds. The timing of our stay meant we did not have time to utilise the lovely courtyard garden. Great shower with excellent water pressure was a bonus! All in all, it is a really beautiful property, well maintained and with lovely hosts.

A great stay at 'By the Bay'
'By the Bay' is in a great location at St Leonards. It is close to lots of Bellarine Peninsula highlights. The accommodation is very comfortable and with ample space. The lush backyard & garden was perfect for our Frenchie who loved exploring. Kaz is a perfect host & provided everything you will ever need.

Clean and convenient.
Caz was very helpful. Being seniors, we were back from our family function relatively early - watching tv in bedroom not very comfortable, although Caz told us the screen in the lounge/study, with its comfortable seating, would soon be available to use as a normal tv. Would stay there again if available.

Great location. Comfortable, relaxing.stay.
Beautifully appointed premises, Every detail had been thought of:ample breakfast choices, all kinds of soaps and lotions, a lovely, big bath ,even a shawl to don if too cool to sit outside and everything spotless. Both bedrooms open onto a lovely garden with private table,chairs and cushions.. Everything is very tastefully done leaving nothing more to be desired. A truly gracious host made us totally welcome, including our small dog.
