This was the cuuuutest little home! We were not looking for anything fancy just a clean place to sleep after the penguin parade, but this was so clean and the beds were comfortable. The entire place was so cute and a favorite stay on our Australian adventure

    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.

    We did a mosaics class at Mosaics by the Bay, located in Ventnor. I've been to Cowes a few times and the shopping and restaurants are very good. The beach is really nice. It is very easy to get around. It can be very busy during peak seasons. There are the penguin parade, whale watching certain times of the year, adventure parks, mini golf at Grumpy's. There is a lot to do for couples as well as families.

    A very picturesque place.

    A very picturesque place. The Vietnam Veterans Museum was great. The Penguin Parade was also good, albeit the little critters didn't want to play the game the night we were there. The local RSL was also very good and had some great meals.

    The house was perfect for our needs. Plenty of beds and a great entertainment area, complete with table tennis & darts & bbq. Close enough to walk into Cowes. Lots of outdoor seating for relaxing and the kitchen is well stocked with appliances & kitchen tools. We used it for “The Grooms” house for a wedding & a small Brunch the day after the wedding. Perfect for us.

    The house was nice, modern and clean. It’s perfect for couples and a very young family. Phillip island holidays homes were so great to deal with and went out of the way to make us comfortable. Absolutely loved how it had a washing machine, dryer and a towel warmer.

    The cabin is really well set up for travelling with young children. High chair and portacot were provided. Proximity to Cowes is helpful. The spa and pool are great - people from all of the cabins congregate here so the kids have others to play with.
