Luxury Coastal Townhouse Mornington

10/10 Excellent

"A beautiful home with all the amenities. Thank you!"

3/4 acre Beach House, walk to beach & Mt Martha hamlet on Estuary boardwalk

8/10 Good

"The place is neat and tidy. Its nice and peaceful in a secluded area. No worries from neighbours. Close to a supermarket and a gateway to explore the peninsula. Would definitely stay again!"

Studio One | Single Level Luxe Retreat Opp Beach

8/10 Good

"The property itself is very nice; very clean and tastefully decorated in a simplistic style. It is fitted out with everything you need and has a lovely garden to relax in. Their is no sea view but it was great to be on the esplanade and walk to the beach.The only negative was the check in process which is managed by a 3rd party offshore company. There was last minute confusing and conflicting information given on the day of check in, which made that part of the booking sadly quite stressful. If the owners can fix this element it would make the whole experience more enjoyable."
