Good position but dated and tired.
Very narrow drive with shrubs brushing against the car on both sides!! The outside chairs and lounges mouldy and tired. The place looked clean but unfortunately infested with cockroaches and ants! Tired furniture inside - Laminex dining table chipped and old. The laundry was excellent- good washing machine and dryer. Bedrooms - beds clean

Portsea stay
A lovely location and extremely well presented house. Comfortable beds and linen, modern clean bathrooms. A well stocked kitchen with all appliances and a great outdoor area. The lounge room sofas did not match the advertised property photos and could use an update. Overall an excellent experience and we would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable, modern and well appointed beach house very close to the best beaches in Portsea. Relatively inexpensive for the location. Four big bedrooms. Air-conditioning a blessing. No pool.
