Great stay at this place to celebrate Christmas with our family. Well located near beach, a lot of thought has been given to supplying a huge range of “goodies” and cooking facilities. Highly recommended.

Ideal family house
This was our third stay at this house. We find it ideal for our family which includes 6 children who have their own area downstairs - works so well for them and the adults. Beach is only a short walk away which is great. Kellie is a very accommodating host, easy to contact and made sure we had everything we needed.

Great place near Whites Beach
We had a lovely stay. Great house with lots of room and super close to Whites Beach. We had our dog with us so it was easy to walk down with our 3 year old and Boston Terrier and spend a few days at the beach.

Great family holiday
We enjoyed a great family beach holiday at this house. Kellie, our host, made every effort to ensure our stay was comfortable and we had all that we needed. The house works well for a family such as ours (ourselves, our boys and their families). Thanks, Kellie, for another great stay.

Great family house.
Enjoyed our stay very much. Good location. Roomy house ideal for family. The children loved having their own space and all that was provided for them. Kellie was a very good host, easily contactable and dealt with a couple of little issues which arose during our stay promptly.

Superbly equipped and comfortable large house
We were amazed at how well equipped the house. Coffee machine, high chair, clean doggy bed, stair gaurd for infants, board games galore, roomy beds, outside shower, etc were some of the additional nice touches. So easy to access and an easy walk to town

Torquay Beach was lovely!
My family and friends enjoyed our stay at this Torquay getaway. In such short notice, we were served with great hospitality and service. We only booked it for two nights and that’s not enough time to explore all of Torquay beach. I definitely recommend booking this place, you won’t be disappointed!

This is a wonderful house for a family holiday.
The house is well equipped with everything you would need to have a comfortable stay. The attention to detail is amazing. We were 10 people (six adults, 3 children and 1 toddler) and we found everything we needed. E.G. all cooking implements, a wonderful table on the balcony that sits 10 people, a porta cot, a stair gate that installs very easily, games and toys including a ping pong table, beach chairs and paddle boards, etc. The house is also close to one of the beaches of Torquay. Kellie was a fantastic host, responding very quickly to any of our questions.

Great getaway, super close to beach
We had had a wonderful stay here. So close to the beautiful beach, leash free all year round for dogs. We loved the fireplace and bright upstairs living area. It had everything you need for a great holiday. Only drawback was being right on a noisy road, but once doors and windows were closed it was fine. Great communication from the host.

Great family holiday home!!!
Property was clean and comfortable. Back yard was great for the kids and dogs to both play safely. The house had everything that you would need and more! The rooms were comfortable and having a hot outdoor shower was so nice when coming back from the beach cold and wet. The park at the end of the street and whites beach so close made for a great night walk and an easy morning walk to the salty dog cafe for coffee was a nice way to start the day. Would recommend this house for any family groups looking for a house to hold you all.

About the host

Hosted by Kellie Jasper

Host profile image
I'm a busy, working mother of three from Melbourne so when we get to holiday I want a place to relax, enjoy and to feel like I am on holidays and not just in another house.

Why they chose this property

We renovated a house to create a holiday home that our family loves, both for when the children were younger and for now that they are teens/young adults. We want others to enjoy the property and create precious family memories.

What makes this property unique

"Torquay Family Getaway" is comfortable, colourful and with lots of reminders that you are on holidays at the beach. It is set up to suit families - from very young families by providing a high chair, stair gate and portacot to young families with toys, books and board games to growing families (like mine) who need sports equipment, space for their friends, privacy, a smart TV and endless free WIFI.
