Verandah Retreat

Vacation Home

WOW! What can I say? From booking all the way through to check out it was the smoothest and easiest process. Kahli has been fantastic and very welcoming. Richie and I travelled down for our wedding and needed a place for the pre-wedding and night of the wedding. We really lucked out finding this treasure, Kahli was extremely quick to respond which put us at ease and made the whole thing a very relaxing process during a very busy time of our lives. The photos don’t even do i…t justice (and that’s saying a lot because the photos are amazing! ) — the entire property is stunning! The place is styled to perfection, I literally couldn’t fault one thing. Every bathroom tile, every glass in the kitchen, the Bluetooth speaks throughout the house, the fans (huge bonus! ) and all the cushions are stunning. It’s such a beautiful property and definitely made us feel even more special for our big day! The location is perfect, close to the shops and from the beach. Wi-Fi is quick, beds are extremely comfortable and garden is stunning. You’ve thought of so many little touches to make the stay perfect and memorable so thank you for allowing us to stay! We will absolutely be back — maybe for our 1 year wedding anniversary! 10/10!

A beautiful home to enjoy. The kids definitely loved the table tennis table in the garage and the adults were able to enjoy a well deserved rest in the outdoor entertaining area with music playing through the external speakers. We only wish that we could have stayed longer!

Verandah Retreat on Phillip Island is a wonderful home away from home. Located in Cowes and just a hop and skip away from the main street and a quick two minute stroll to the beach, it is the perfect spot for a coastal getaway with loved ones as well as your furry friends *as the property is also pet friendly).

Such a beautiful property. We will definitely be coming back here to stay.

We had a great weekend on the Island enjoying a family wedding on Saturday and just relaxing as an extended family on Sunday. Thanks so much, we hope to be back soon.

Family wedding on the Island,,,, what a fabulous spot this was. All the family loved it. Positioned perfectly within walking to everything. We just loved it.
Oh and yes we will be back.
Thank you.

'Thank you to Verandah Retreat for providing an absolutely incredible and unforgettable accommodation experience whilst in Phillip Island. In such a fast paced world with the accommodation industry now more focused on numbers rather than customer experience it was, to say the least, refreshing to arrive at this stunning, pristine Retreat and notice all of the small touches that made such a huge difference overall. The firewood ready to go, the house (bluetooth) sound system all hooked up meant you could run yourself a nice, deep bath and let all of your worries fade away without having to bother preparing or doing anything! If I could give the Verandah Retreat 10 stars I would. Unforgettable and truly incredible'

Beautiful clean and well presented house. Perfect for an extended family get away. Well set up for the little ones and the furry ones. Thanks for the hospitality.

We spent a week in heaven at this house over the summer holidays. It feels like a wellness retreat — new, clean and beautifully decorated. With just a short stroll to both the beach and main street we enjoyed walking in to town to grab a coffee, breakfast and the paper each morning. The deck and outdoor living area were a highlight. Our toddlers loved the grassed area and we enjoyed relaxing and reading (particularly in the hanging chair). We left Verandah feeling refreshed and relaxed — this property would not be out of place in Byron Bay or Palm Cove. The owners were also a pleasure to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble to organise. We will be rebooking for this coming summer (and perhaps winter as well).

Great holiday house we'll definitely be coming back! It was perfect for our young family. It is a close walk to the beach, playground and the shops which is great while staying during peak times, no car needed! The house itself is amazing, newly built and spacious enough for our family. Owner was a pleasure to deal with, nothing was too hard and made us feel very welcome. Highly recommended!

What a great spot! The Verandah Retreat was the perfect Holiday House. Big and plenty of space while still feeling cosy. Everything felt new, clean and well looked after. The yard and deck area were a highlight for us and especially good for the kids to safely explore and play. Beds were all comfortable lovely linen. Also super close to shops and beach A+. We didn't want to leave and can't wait to go back again. Thanks!

We had only one complaint — we were only able to stay for three nights! Fantastic house, great location, immaculately presented. This is easily the best equipped holiday house we've stayed in. Owners were very easy to deal with — we'll be back!

Absolutely Fantastic house for a holiday. Great location, only 5 minutes walk to the beach and 10 minutes the shops. The house is amazing with lovely style and separate space for the kids to play. The kitchen and whole house were very clean and well stocked with essentials. The outdoor alfresco and landscaped yard made it even better. The owners are very easy to deal with providing answers and responses almost immediately. We had a great long weekend away here and fell into it like a home away from home. We will definitely be returning here for another holiday and would highly recommend it to families wanting that homely feeling while away.
