everything about the property was great! Marcus and Simone are definitely  what you hope for in the hospitality industry. They’re so welcoming and they have such a beautiful property. . Simone spent quite a bit of time with us detailing what we should know and places to go. 
Just a 3-minute walk from Erehwon Point Beach and 600 yards from Cowes Beach, C-Scape Penthouse - Cowes beach front features accommodations in Cowes with a terrace.
I stayed in one of the new studio cabins. It was really well set out and had everything that I needed, along with beautiful crisp white sheets and fluffy towels. It was a very pleasant stay and the hotel staff were all helpful and friendly. It’s also in a very good position right on the beach and a short walk to Cowes township.
Definitely worth a visit!

Cowes is a live town not just a tourist town with everything you need easily accessible. Lovely locals, lots of options, interesting and nature all around. Easy, short drive to Penguin parade and multiple beaches. Very clean, safe and picturesque, a great location from which to discover the island's many attractions.

Stayed at North Pier Hotel .
Stayed at North Pier Hotel . We booked family room which comes with an outdoor patio. Great location. Within walking distance to family friendly beach and restaurants. We had the best lamb curry in Chocolate Factory cafe. Not spicy, lamb was tender, suitable for kids. Love the fish and chips!! We purchased bundle pass which comes with Penguin Parade, Churchil Island (picnic area, picturesque view, Highlander cow), Koala Conservation (spotted lots of koala on the trees while walking on boardwalk). Highly recommended these places of interest.

I am sending these 2 photos as on the screen shot you see I paid for a studio with patio and balcony and all I got was this pod for $500 per night.
They lied about what my accommodation was to you.
Probably because they had a big group staying as well they decided to shove me down in a "trades pod".
Unacceptable! They need to give me a refund and booking.com can't trust them in the future!
Thanks Kerry
Fantastic location, very short walk to Coles, Aldi , the main street of Cowes and easily walkable to the beach. Heaps of cafes, vintage shops and restaurants nearby. Cottage was perfect for 3, including comfy couch. Smart TV was very welcome. Kitchen doesn't have oven, but the electric frypan, microwave and hotplate meant we could do great self catering. Kitchen was well stocked with equipment and a good teabag/coffee bag/sugar starter kit. We appreciated decent stock of toilet paper, dishwashing detergent and 2 good tea towels.
This is a terrific property in a great location. The location to the beach, which was also dog-friendly, was excellent, and we had many a late afternoon walk to take in the sunset which was spectacular. Also an easy 20-30 minute walk into Cowes along the beach or a 2 minute drive. The house has heaps of room for our family of 6 to spread out, with very well appointed kitchen with plenty of cups plates etc and good appliances. Plus there's a great enclosed yard for the dog.
We stayed in the boat house apartment at Oaktree lodge for three nights. Every little detail was thought of including everything you need for breakfast. Sue the owner even provided a little bed for my son. The decorations and cosy atmosphere were heavenly. So relaxing and comfortable and close to Cowes and all attractions. With quiet garden and sea views. This is perfect for a romantic weekend as a couple or a family of three get away. Highly recommend this place!!! Sara
Excellent house stay. Everything had been thought of inside - outside fireplace, great layout of the house, large backyard for our puppy, good tv and lounge setting kitchen facilities, outdoor shower, Attention to detail in the little things as well ie kitchen facilities, coffee machine, firtewood, books to read and games to play. Perfect for a family couple or friends staying together as three bedrooms
Cowes is the place to stay on Phillip Island, and Captain's Nook is walking distance to the centre of town for shops, cafes and restaurants.
Birdlife and wildlife are excellent in the vicinity, Penguin Parade not to be missed (and worth paying for premier seats)
Captains Nook is very well set up, perfect for up to 5 people. Very comfortable bed, lovely spa bath, 2 lounge areas.
Our self contained cabin was lovely and it was so clean and tidy. The kitchen/dining area was spacious, comfortable and well appointed. The beds were clean and also very comfortable. The location was excellent right on the beach and only a minute or two from Cowes. Staff were so welcoming and friendly. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay again!
It was in a perfect location. View was amazing. Cafe next door for breakfast. After travelling around Phillip Island we were very pleased that we had picked CScape and Cowes as everything was on hand for a wonderful weekend which was for our Ruby wedding anniversary. Lots of different restaurants were just a few minutes walk. Thoroughly recommended. Thank you.
The accommodation was better than expected. It was so peaceful and calming. It was a quick drive from the main strip in Cowes and a longer walk, which we didn't attempt. Beautiful accommodation. Very spacious. Beautiful views. Hotel quality bed. Spa bath. Would definitely rebook if returning to Philip Island.
Fabulous apartment, well appointed. Very clean & comfortable, in the lounge & the bed too. Easy to start the heating & it worked quickly. TV the same. Lovely view over the garden & the trees beyond. Owner very friendly. Short drive into Cowes.
The house was amazing. Plenty of room and spacious. The little touches such as washing powder and shampoo etc were great. The house was clean and only a 2 minute drive from Cowes where lots of shops and facilities are. We would definately return
Even though we didn't do any cooking, there was a very nicely stocked kitchen. The heater worked well and took the chill out quickly upon arrival on a chilly day. Nice place to stay and if we come back to Phillip Island, would stay again.
I loved the location of the accommodation and that it was 100m to the beach and it was quiet and the staff were lovely and the cabin was very clean and comfortable. The accommodation was a short drive to shops and Cowes.
The guest house was only a couple of minutes drive from Cowes. Evie and Richard, the owners, were lovely people and went out of their way to accommodate us. Breakfast was “WOW” amazing and delicious!!!
The venue was clean tidy and well appointed. The guide book on the property was perfect.
Everything was great and I highly recommend the property on its own, let alone the fact it is close to Cowes
cheap and cheerful. A lot of work is needed to property but that’s reflected in the price. Huge house, that’s well set out (bedrooms one end, living room the other). Would definitely comeback.
great private free standing villa so very quiet and away from the noise and crowds of Cowes .
wonderful facilities, with everything you need for a relaxing holiday
The staff were very friendly and happy to help with anything. There were plenty of things for our children to do in the holiday park which made them very happy.
