Beachfront vacation rentals in Waratah Bay

Bright, airy, spotless, huge, well appointed townhouse. Very comfortable beds, lounge chairs and sofas. The excellent blackout blinds mean good sleep ins! Bed linen and towels are all high quality and lovely to use. Good heating. Great little courtyard garden for a pet. We had a lovely time. The walk to the beach cliffs is nice for a glimpse of the ocean and it is a short drive to all the best beaches. While the whole property is beach front (across the road from beach), it contains a lot of other houses and this townhouse is at the back of that property, so does not have a view in the direction of the beach. So long as you realise that, this place is highly recommended. Would definitely go again with up to 6 people. Thanks, Kristel! 😊

The view was beautiful. Peaceful, quiet location. Kitchen was handy. Clean bathroom.

Host was responsive and proactive, keen to give guests a positive experience. House is well located, walkable distance to shops and restaurants and the beach. Thanks for having me! Will definitely visit again.

Great communication, clear instructions. The surrounding was peaceful and very close to the beach. The rooms was surprisingly soundproof and the heating was more than adequate for cold days. The living area was super spacious.

Stayed for a night, John was so nice and friendly and so was Indy! though the room was small, it was definitely cozy and our furbaby enjoyed our stay as well. Location was superb being close to the beach and trails and many other activities to do.

We had a great time. Penny is a great host and the place is great for exploring the peninsula. The location is perfect, only minutes walk to all the amenities including a local library, cinema, various shops and lovely beaches. Our puppy loved going to the beach and played in the water. Penny’s place is great value for money. The people in town were just so friendly to us. I highly recommend Penny’s place.

My family had the most amazing stay at Mel’s house. Everything was set up perfectly and there was so many tv areas for the kids and us parents to use. Our dog Harlie was safe and had so much room outside. The house was so clean and everything worked perfectly. We will definitely book again!

Marg was an absolutely amazing host. She gives you great recommendations of things to see and do the surrounding area. Instructions were very clear and her home is beautiful. Clean with everything you need. She is very responsive and very friendly. 10/10 experience.

Thank you to the Peachy Properties team. My family and I had a wonderful stay at a wonderful house. Very retro indeed. A perfect property located close to the beach and shops, all in a quiet street with friendly neighbours. I highly recommend this property

Gorgeous house and surroundings. The pool, the fire pit and outdoor kitchen bar were favourites. We had 4 families stay comfortably with young kids, I imagine it's even better in summer. It was well set up and the communication from the agent was good.

We had a short stay at Beekeepers and are already thinking “when can we go back”. It was an amazing house in a breathtaking location. Walks on the deserted pristine Morgan’s beach. Meanders through the wilderness coastal vegetation. All shared with the wallabies, echidnas and birds. Paradise.

Greg and Maree’s place was exactly what me and my friends were looking for. A good price being right by the beach and with a pool. Greg and Maree were so helpful and responsive and kind. Would recommend this place to anyone wanting a relaxing weekend away.

The accommodation was a perfect size. Main bedroom is great, large with its own bathroom and enclosed outside area. Shared bedrooms maybe a bit small but they're just for sleeping anyway. Plenty of living space, an extra area for kids. Lots of toys and games and a billiard table. The swim spa wasn't heating for us but Chris the host did warn us due to unforeseen circumstances and offered a refund if we wished to cancel. Very close to a beautiful enclosed beach, not very busy and good for swimming. Far enough away from 5he bustle of Cowes centre but close enough to walk or drive in for supplies. Chris was very prompt in replying. Overall, a very good experience and I recommend this accommodation for groups or families. Thank you Chris for offering your place.

We were so pleased to have stayed in this very spacious apartment. The photos dont do it justice. A magic view of the bay from the balcony. A fabulous location making it an easy walk to restaurants, cafes, the foreshore and supermarkets.

Thank you Kris and Jon for an amazing stay! I’ve been using Airbnb for over 8 years now and these guys are the best hosts I’ve come across! The house itself is beautiful and just as described, it was stocked with everything you could think of (extra towels, toilet paper, proper coffee machine, pots, pans, everything!) and Kris and Jon let you feel right at home. The heated pool was a bonus and the yard space and BBQ was perfect for our 2 families with 2 small kids. Kris was very response in the lead up to our trip with any questions I had and even had left us a hand written note with a full booklet on how to use everything in the house along with recommendations. The house is in a perfect location with access to great cafes and the beach. Could not rate the house or these guys any more highly, we will be back and thank you for such a wonderful stay :) Shamani

We had a lovely week at Somers, walks on the beach, coffee at the general store. The house was lovely, and it was great to emerge from the backyard to the beach - quite some steps though. Pool was good for a quick dip and play. We enjoyed the view - sitting inside (storms) or drying off after a swim. Our doggie was welcomed with treats. Lots of lovely art and an admiral beachcombing collection makes you feel at home.

We enjoyed a relaxed getaway here. The hosts were responsive and friendly. Place was great and equipped with all the things you might need. Thanks for having us!

It was such a delightful trip! The entire house felt warm and welcoming, and the huge backyard gave my dog the perfect holiday too. I absolutely loved the bedding — it was incredibly soft and comfortable. Best of all, there was an awesome sound system in the living room that made our stay even more fun. If I return to Phillip Island, I’ll definitely stay here again!

Darren's place was exactly like the pictures, it was such a great place in a great location, it was clean and he provided loads of towels and bedding and I couldn't recommend Darren's place enough!

Adrians home was well equipped with cooking utensils pots pans plates and platters etc. Plenty of space, board games and everything we needed for a lovely family lunch for Christmas. Thoughtful touches, very clean and comfortable.

Our fourth stay at Deb and Mary’s was just as relaxing and comfortable as it always is. We highly recommend this gorgeous house, both for its location and for how modern and well-equipped it is. The two living areas make it a fantastic choice for an extended family group. Thanks Deb for being the best communicator and for making us feel at home. We’re already missing it and looking forward to next year’s visit.

Lovely host, and beautiful location. Relaxing and enjoyable for the whole family. Beautiful house with all the amenities.

Affordable home for the family and young grandchildren for a weekend together. Short stroll to the beach and 10 minute drive to the penguins. Bringing your own linen and towels and cooking in the kitchen really helped keep the costs down. Great memories for our family.

We love coming to Phillip Island, but this has been one of our favourite stays. David was extremely easy to deal with, responsive and friendly. Made many great recommendations for things to do/places to see. Check in to check out was a smooth process and we would be more than happy to stay again. Thanks David !!
