Great little house. Had everything we needed. Easy to deal with, good communication. Great location, just a small walk to the beach.

Lovely little house in a great location for the township and the beach - perfect for a little family stay where you don’t mind all hanging out together in evenings. Only hiccup was that it wasn’t super clean when we arrived - sand on couches and bed covers, nothing a vacuum couldn’t fix.

Great location, pantry well stocked, peaceful surrounds. floors needed to be vacuumed when we arrived! The linen (doona covers) could of been cleaner, we had to supply the linen so I had taken covers. Could of had less ornaments and things on all the tables and buffet. Amazing amount of fold out tables stored in bedrooms and lounge!

Flinders getaway
Needed more toilet rolls. Windows and blinds dirty and wrecked. Things kept getting lost. Crack in water can. No ladder in shed. Next door not good. No privacy. Left stuff from last people. Couch very dirty. Only 1 television. 5 beds for 6 people.

Reviewer Comments:
What a suprise indeed. This property was rated a generous 1 star for cleanliness, as a 0 would have been a better rate. This property was not cleaned at a level ready for hire. The floors/rugs were dusty and dirty, cutlery was dirty and had mould, beds had mice poo and with mattress protectors barely on, washing machine had stains and not clean, the bathroom sink had plumbing issues and the couches had pet hair, dirt and dust. The house had a stale smell, dusty air and an unclean feel.It was quite unfortunate to have walked into these circumstances considering the location of the accommodation was spot on. Having to rewash dishes, cutlery and bedding before using wasn't an ideal start to a family weekend away. I wish I had more positives to add to the review as the accommodation would have so much more potential and less disappointment if more detail was paid to the general and basic necessities of cleaning.Hire with caution, as the cleaning fee and pictures are deceiving!

Surprise Surprise is a quaint home that has been beautifully done up and we spent a lovely time exploring the Mornington Peninsula. The home is well set up with all the conveniences, and we liked how the lounge area was the focal point for us to sit around and enjoy the back garden. its convenient to the main street of Flinders and a short stroll to the beach. We highly recommend Surprise Surprise

Comfortable, clean and well equipped
Relaxing Easter break for the family. The back yard is ideal for sitting in the sun and for our two small dogs to run. Easy walks to the general store, cafes, dog-friendly beach and pier.
