Great vacation!
The property was as described and was perfect for out getaway over the long weekend.

Look forward to coming back and utilising the property again in the future :)

THE RESORT
What a superb place to totally wind down and totally forget about the hassles of everyday life. We had a great time and so did our dogs who enjoyed the freedom to roam around a great sized property. This was a very well-presented property, you can't fault it. Would definitely be booking again in the very near future

Wonderful Pre-Christmas Holiday at Rose on Rye
Margaret truly saved our holiday! After our previous booking in Rye was unexpectedly cancelled just 24 hours before our trip, Margaret graciously accepted our last-minute request to stay at her beautiful home. The communication with her was seamless, and the house and its location exceeded all our expectations. We spent countless hours relaxing by and swimming in the pool, which was an absolute highlight for my 15 year old son. We’ll definitely be staying here again the next time we visit Rye!

Home away from home
The house was most welcoming, and spotless. The two indoor living areas were terrific for the two age groups. The outdoor BBQ area was great and wish it had been warmer to use the pool. Everything we needed was there to make our stay most enjoyable, would book this place again with no hesitation with the host even offering a late checkout.

Perfect for a couple or family get away!

House: fabulous reno, nice and clean, well cared for, good equipment & HEAPS of games! Finally, the host (Margaret) is thoughtful, quick to respond, friendly and great to deal with. We'll be back!

Perfect amount of everything.
We just had the BEST time. The kids loved the pool, and we loved the space. The kids could play in the rumpus room while we relaxed in the main living area. Everything was clean and the house was well stocked with everything we needed. The house is close enough to walk to the front beach as well as the shops. Nice quiet area which suited us for our stay. Margaret was a dream host and was always available if we had any questions. Everything went well and we will be certainly coming back very soon.

Great Summer House Escape
We had a great holiday, very satisfied. The swimming pool was a big hit for all. Separate living rooms was great for parents and teenage kids, with cosy couches. The house was well presented with nice furniture. Chess board was a big hit also, long night comps which were fun. Smart T.V's with many streaming services available to stream from including Kayo Sports for the Sport lovers. Walking distance to the beach and Blairgowrie coffee shops/restaurants. Looking forward to staying their again.

Immaculate
This is our family's first stay and experience at this property in the Rye Mornington Peninsula ever. I must say that from the moment we opened the driveway gates we as a family incl Dad who was visiting from NZ and our beloved dog Marley were impressed from the get go. Spacious, very clean well kept with generous amenities. The pool was a hit with everyone including our son's friends. BBQ area in the back was a nice surprise very tranquil and a delightful space. Definitely be returning for regular holiday stays. Thank you Margaret a delight to deal with no issues in communication full transparency and understanding of our specific needs. What you see in the pictures is absolutely accurate and well worth the effort, thanks again. The Mariner family.

Location, Spotless, host, great home for entertaining - All Perfect
Our host Margaret was personable and her attention to detail is first class. Well-appointed home, close to Blairgowrie shops/restaurants and bay beach is walking distance. We spent a weekend away with family just prior to Christmas to catch up, unwind and relax. Beds comfortable and spotlessly clean throughout the home. Inground pool with entertaining area – fantastic. Home is private and secure. We will be back!

Disappointed
My family and I stayed at this property on January after a really difficult prior year or lockdowns and challenges. I was pleased when I arrived as the photos don’t do the house much justice. I was horrified on day 2 to find out that the property owner watches got from the security cameras as complained to me and said it was the ‘security company’ watching. I felt disgusted from there forward and could not enjoy my holiday that cosy me more than a trip to anywhere in Australia and overseas. I was told to keep quiet and felt paranoid for my whole stay. Location is quiet but far away from anything, the internet didn’t work for almost a whole day which I fixed without. I was told off for not cleaning when I specifically paid a cleaning fee and left the place almost spotless. There was disgusting hair in the beds and throughout the house when I arrived, I felt dirty the whole time. Would not stay again, especially since I get I was being watched all the time. Would definitely look elsewhere if I were you.
