Relaxing Christmas Break
I had a great time at this apartment over Christmas! It was easy to find, had on-site parking and the apartment had all of the amenities to feel like you were right at home. The view is stunning and the apartment block is quiet, safe and conveniently located walking distance to the main strip of shops, supermarkets and the beach. I look forward to visiting again

A great place to stay
AlohaThe Waves was a really comfortable apartment - everything we needed was there and the apartment had a homely atmosphere, with sea views from the balcony, and within easy walk to hotels, shops and cafes plus the foreshore and pier just across the road. The beds were really comfortable too!

The only thing that may be seen as negative ( which is not) approximately three of the floor boards in the hallway and kitchen slide back and forth This put me off balance several times.They need to be secured with some glue Just reporting not criticising Thanks

Great place to stay
Excellent location in Cowes, near enough to walk to Main Street for shops and restaurants, but far enough away to be quiet. Also only a 10 minute drive/ride to the Circuit, so excellent option for bike/car racing fans. Spacious, well appointed apartment and overall a great value for money place to base yourself for a Phillip Island getaway.

Fantastic property
We loved our stay at this property. While the decor is not modern, everything is immaculately clean. The beds are comfortable, the facilities are great and the location is amazing. We travelled down for the Motogp and I the location was really fantastic. Super close to restaurants and bars but still very quiet and peaceful. My uncle has mobility issues and was very comfortable in the apartment. The second bathroom had a full size shower and the lift to the top floor of the building worked really well. I would definitely consider staying at this property again. The communication with the owner was great, the parking was really easy and the access information was very clear. We loved our stay

Great spot
Thanks for a lovely stay. We loved the spot, the well furnished and clean apartment and the sunny balcony. The apartment had everything needed for a relaxing getaway. Being in a top spot means you can park the car and leave it and walk around Cowes. It was great.

This is our second time staying in this apartment. We have been coming to the Waves for 8 years and this is the most comfortable apartment. The couches are so comfortable and the apartment is very well equipped and spacious for our family of four. We hope to book again next year!!

Excellent apartment with fantastic sea views, relaxing spa bath, full kitchen, spacious rooms and very close to all amenities in Cowes. The standard of accommodation was excellent and we could highly recommend this apartment. Will definitely be back next year.

Comfortable accommodation for a relaxing break
This second floor apartment (not what I'd call a penthouse) was very comfortable and clean, with all the appliances you'd need for a week away. Nice view from the living room and great to have onsite parking. Electric blanket on one bed only, but the beds were very comfortable with plenty of extra blankets if needed. Courteous and helpful host called before our stay to advise us of an issue he felt we should know about. Close to shops and cafe's, we could have spent much longer there.
