8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2026
Spacious, well appointed house with lovely sea view from upstairs balcony. Good space for parking car but either had to do a tricky turnaround or reverse down a very long shared drive. Very comfortable beds. House was very close to highway and the traffic noise was significant and caused fDifficulty sleeping in the back bedrooms.Dromana is nice but there are nicer areas to stay on the peninsula. Our main bugbear was not being able to get the oven to work on our first night. It was an easy fix if you know how but the info wasn’t available and it took nearly 24 hours to get it from the agent. The owner did not answer the phone and took til the next day to respond to messages. We had bought and prepped dinner but had to abandon it and quickly find somewhere to eat, most kitchens close by 8 in the area. Not a great start to our stay

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
We came down to Dromana for a basketball tournament. There were 7 teenagers and 2 adults. The accommodation was excellent. Large house with big rooms, plenty of beds and space. Very warm and inviting. House had everything you need - from foil, to tea, to shampoo and conditioner. Communication was the best I have experienced. Responded quickly, even when I locked the keys in the house! Nothing was too difficult. Will definitely be back and will recommend this accommodation to others. Thanks for the great weekend!
