The Guesthouse Rye is a FRONT BEACH (4 blocks back from Point Nepean Road) light filled, spacious, luxury escape beach house, set in a great location, with a short 450 metres (less than a 10 minute stroll) to the front bayside beach of Rye with traffic lights for easy access to the beach. Close enough to the town centre to walk in with the family and get yourself some dinner, a drink or even an ice cream and walk home again.

The Guesthouse Rye is also ideal for girls weekend groups spending time at
The Peninsula Hot Springs along with a spot of shopping at Sorrento and breakfast at The Peninsula Pantry. It is ideal for boys golf weekends, within a short drive to world class golf courses and a short stroll to the pub. Book The Guesthouse Rye with a group of mixed couples of friends and head to the local vineyards like Ten Minutes By Tractor, Montalto and Red Hill Estate, just to name a few. Don't forget to call into The Independant Wine Store in the Main Street of Rye for some wine tasting also.

A break from the beautiful local beaches may see you enjoy a very short drive to the nearby world class Golf Courses, Wineries, Peninsula Pantry, A Mini Kitchen, Cups Vineyard and Peninsula Hot Springs. During the summer school holidays a funfair is setup nightly on the foreshore within walking distance from The Guesthouse Rye. After enjoying a fun filled day on the beach, head back to The Guesthouse Rye and relax. You have the option of cooking up a storm in the fully equipped kitchen or throwing dinner on the 4 burner hooded BBQ with side burner. Enjoy your meals indoors at the 8 seater dining table (plus 3 stools at the kitchen island bench and a high chair) or dine alfresco on the front entertaining deck at the outdoor setting. Alternatively you could take a short stroll to the many fine local restaurants, pubs or the RSL.

A generous size front deck overlooking the moonahs with outdoor table setting offers morning shade and afternoon sun while the rear fully fenced patio/BBQ area with full covered pergola with outdoor table setting allows BBQ's under any weather condition.

Great break

Beautiful property. My girlfriends and I decided a break from our day to day and this was the perfect get away. Enough space for all of us, one used the sunroom to do their zoom workouts while we were away, property has space to pop your car away. Everything is really accessible, it was all that we needed. Thank you to the owners for making us feel really welcome, they were very laid back and that really suited us. We know where we want to come to escape , thank you thank you!

Great location

Property was very suitable for our fishing trip away. Great location, just a short walk to Rye pier. Plenty of space and all the amenities required for a great break. Matty called before arrival to give us some tips on the area and was very welcoming. Great to have a yard where we could securely park the boat.

Best family vacation!

My family and I couldn't have been more pleased with our stay here. Plenty of room and options where to sit. Was nice to open the blinds to huge windows that were actually clean! Plenty of cutlery and dishes to use which is so helpful going away with a big group. Matty was very easy to contact and helpful which makes the experience of sleeping at a strangers house more like comfort of your own home. We parked our car and didnt hop in it again for 5 days ! Walking distance to everything we needed ! Beach, carnival, supermarket, restaurants, chemist! With many years of staying at houses theres always that 1 thing missing and always hard to please everyone, but we all loved our stay here and cannot fault it. We will be back :) thanks guys !!!

Fantastic Location

Our family enjoyed our stay in this property, comfortable for us with no frills, and clean. We brought our dog with us and the property had secure fences. There was good heating in each room, which made it comfortable during July. Lots of cutleries and kitchen utensils. The owner, Matty, was really kind to give us a call prior to our stay to run through the place, location and suggestions. It was a really nice touch. Location is fantastic, being 7 minutes walk to the beach and central to the Mornington Peninsula region for our day trips out. I would recommend this place for a family who is looking for a simple and comfortable place.

The Guesthouse Rye: Perfect for a family getaway!!

The Guesthouse Rye, is a charming, quaint beach house, that has all that is required to have a relaxing time with the family. Perfect for our family of 3 generations, 4 grandchildren with heaps of room for everyone. Close to the beach, shops, coffee and far away enough to not be disturbed by the noise and bustle during the tourist season. Good sized bedrooms, kids room with an extra TV and games for the kids to play. All rooms had fans and the air conditioning was great, kept all the house cool, even on days of 41 degrees. The kitchen had all the appliances needed, pantry had all the basics needed and the outside BBQ area was large enough to cater for our party of 6 (plus 2 toddlers). The hosts Matthew and Christina contacted us a couple of days before our stay and were very helpful in providing information about the Guesthouse and also about Rye and its attractions. Totally enjoyed our time there, will book again, longer next time.

Beachside bliss

The property was as described, well laid out and comfortable for a large group. It was very relaxing and close to shops and beaches. Over Christmas it was just the most relaxing peaceful break. The covered patio at the back got the morning sun and was a favourite place for breakfast and sun soaking. It was great to be able to bring my small dog. Would definitely stay again.
