Local area and beaches

There are 2 villas on this beautifully quiet 4 acre property. They look out onto farmland and are surrounded by vegetation local to the area. A resident male koala regularly puts in an appearance along with a myriad of birds. The inlet is accessible by road or a 1.5km walking/riding track. The inlet is a fantastic place to spend the day either fishing, swimming, boating or sailboarding providing car access onto the beach. The surf beach access track is approximately a 1km walk which will give access to the quiet unmanned part of the Sandy Point surf beach . A further 0.5kms will take you to the main Sandy Point Beach and Sandy Point Surf Lifesaving Club. The Sandy Point beach is absolutely stunning and a great place for a family day out swimming, surfing and boogy boarding or just for lazing around on the beach. Opposite the main beach is the General Store, Café, Mini Golf and Tennis Courts. Wilsons Promontory is a 40 minute drive and has stunning beaches, walks and wildlife. Definitely a great day trip and not to be missed

Nice place with everything we needed and more. Very comfortable beds and nice spa bath. Location quiet and tucked away in a lovely area, we are just sorry that we didn’t have enough time to fully explore more. Deanne was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed.

Comfortable with all the essentials
In a quiet position, the place is very clean, comfortable and well presented. We thought that it would be good to have a bit more privacy from other buildings on the property, but that really is not big deal.

Lovely Property
Gorgeous setting, Perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle. Very relaxing clean and tidy. Owners are very strict on how many people stay at the property. If there are more people present for dinner, owner will check and worn that the police will be called. Absolutely no dogs are allowed so make sure you read the fine print very thoroughly. Overall stay was good.

Lovely retreat!
We really enjoyed staying here, place is very private, relaxing and the décor very fresh. Very clean and tidy. Perfect for a quiet weekend away or to stay with your family - very central as well for visits to surrounding towns and Wilsons Prom. Loved it!

Excellent property
Our 4 day stay at Deanne's Villa (Waratah) was perfect, relaxing and very peaceful. The Villa was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The bed was excellent. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need for self catering. There are some great walks with lots of wildlife along the way. Sandy Point beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The resident koala is very cute. Wilson Prom is a 20 min drive and mustn't be missed. Thankyou Deanne, you are a wonderful host and we will be back as soon as we can. I highly recommend this property. 5 stars. Mandie & Mike

Clean, modern and great location!
We had a wonderfully relaxing few days at Driftwood Villas. We loved the gorgeous beds with top quality linen and the well equipped kitchen. A very peaceful location close to the town centre and the walking track to shallow inlet in one direction and surf beach in the other. Great for cycling! De is a most helpful and friendly host! We'll be back!

Beautiful property
Driftwood villas are in a beautiful location at a beautiful spot. Sandy Point is ideally located with a beautiful beach, between Philip Island and Wilson's Prom. The villa is lovely and very well equipped. The beds are extremely comfortable and have 1000 count sheets. There were some really nice special touches like bath gel for the spa and non chemical cleaning products. The views from the many windows are lovely and one of the highlights was a koala ambling over the front veranda then taking out residence in a nearby gum tree.
