The location was perfect for what we needed. We were walking distance from great cafes and restaurants. We only used our car to visit the penguin parade. The sunsets were so beautiful. We were blessed with perfect weather which made our stay even more magical. It was a well spend $500 a day for the five of us. During daytime there were lots of people around which contributed to the holiday feeling. By night time all the cars were gone and it was very quiet. If we visit Melbourne again we will definitely try to come and stay in apart 1. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island.

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island. We had dinner at a different restaurant each night! Italian, Greek, Thai, Japanese and Gelato for dessert - we couldn't fit any others in but there's many more. All the food was amazing. The Island itself provides such a vast amount of activities to do from Peguins, beaches, lookouts, kids entertainment, parks, wineries it has it all!

Great central spot for our visit to Philip Island attractions - Penguin Parade, Nobbies, Vietnam Vets Museum ... all great places to spend some time. As well as visiting some lovely places to eat! Didn't make it to the Markets ... maybe next time!

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint.

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint. Lots of wildlife to see. Local venues had live music and the food was wonderful. Only draw back is Cowes seems to shut down after 10pm, so need your own entertainment after that, we just listened to the ocean and relaxed.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island. It is at the far end of the island from the bridge to cross over to the island. The town is well equipped with all softs of shops, and is a good spot to use as a base to travel around the island and experience all the sights that are available.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water. If you cannot afford cost or time to get warmer water, enjoy what is affordable at Cowes. If you want extras, try half-hour drive to San Remo pub, or one hour to Wonthaggi.

Located in the heart of Cowes, this accommodation is walking distance to the main street, shopping, and the beachfront. The rooms were spaciously furnished with a great deal of amenities covering all our needs. The beds were comfortable, and the décor was magnificent and very child-friendly (including a baby gate at the top of the stairs). It is a perfect place for our Phillip Island getaway.

Good location in a quiet street. Less than 5 mins drive to the beach and to the Cowes town centre. The house was big, enough to fit 2 families. 3 bathrooms, 3 toilets, and a separate laundry room. Spacious living area, front, and backyard. Parking can fit 2 to 4 cars. Dog friendly property. Stocked with games and a games room with a pool table and foosball for kids.
