Peaceful
There was insect on the window sill and cobwebs in the bathroom and dog hair from previous renters under furniture, condiments were dated 2019, but overall not bad. could do with updated kettle and frypans as they were not clean. We left the place cleaner than we arrived.

Near perfect stay
Nearly perfect stay! Great location, very clean, lovely fully fenced surrounding yard, fully equipped kitchen (minus microwave, not a big deal)! Would be great for kids with the downstairs play area. Only thing that would've made it better were if extra towels were provided, but we'd just bring our own next time. Would love to be back soon!

Long weekend Easter Bliss
The Gulls at Dromana had everything we could have hoped for in an Easter getaway! The home is well equipped, clean and welcoming. We loved the enclosed area for our dog Gavin who had plenty or space to run around and sniff. The BBQ on the deck is an added bonus to sit and enjoy the views on a beautiful summers night. Thanks so much Jan, we will definitely be back!

Lovely getaway and great location
Lovely propertywith super comfy beds and linen! My husband and two doggos visited over the long weekend and we loved being close to an off-leash dog park (15 min walk) at hillview community reserve. The house is equipped with all the necessary items and the property is secure for dogs to run around the back and front yards, we also loved that there was a doggy door! Shops and beach are a few mins drive. did find a bit of dust under the bed (husband experienced some asthma) hence why we checked. Jan was lovely to talk to and accommodated our last minute change of plans to have friends join us for one night! Great experience overall :)

Long weekend
I had a long weekend at The Gulls in Dromana with my 16yo daughter and 12yo son. Prior to our arrival, communication with the host Jan was clear, prompt and helpful. Access to the property was very straightforward via a key safe. The house is located about 10 minutes walk from the shops and beach, and has some water views from the balcony. The rooms are comfortable, light and the heating system was excellent. The third bedroom is actually a sofa bed in the downstairs rumpus room which is also where the table tennis table is - we elected for the kids to share the bedroom with 2 single beds, and for the table tennis table to stay set up.

Just like the pictures
We instantly felt very welcome in this pretty, sunny home. There are views to the bay and plenty of nice spots to sit and read. Our dog loved exploring the secure yard. Jan made us feel welcome and communication was easy. Dromana is a good base for exploring the Mornington Peninsula and even in winter the drive-in is a fun experience. Thanks Jan for sharing your lovely home.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

My family had a beach house in Dromana for 30 years and Dromana was part of my childhood. When the property was sold, as my parents found it difficult to maintain, I knew that I always wanted to buy a home in this special place. In 2007 I was lucky enough to find a house that ticked all the boxes. My idea was that I wanted to create a house that I could enjoy as well as others. I wanted it to provide everything for a holiday so that guests didn't have to load up their car with 'just in cases'!!! I have endeavored to set The Gulls Dromana up as such a retreat and look forward to sharing it with you.
