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

Location for brunch and lunch great, disappointed in evening meals.
Good base if you have car to explore island.
The Thai restaurant is an experience and great value and food. The two upmarket restaurants were disappointing, expensive and food unfortunately was underwhelming.
Beautiful home with lovely views, very close to Penguin Parade and in a safe quiet complex.
The apartment was pristine. The bed/linens super comfy.
The place is spacious, the views make you feel like you have the island to yourself.
We went to Melbourne after Phillips Island and stayed at a 5-star hotel, which felt like a hole-in-the-wall in comparison with the Hilltop apartments.
Thank you Eve and Chris for a wonderful stay!
We stayed at one of new cabins and was very comfortable and clean. They have everything you need for a short or long stay. Our cabin was heater on when we arrived and it was very much appreciated (we arrived in a very cold day!). Kids just loved it. You can do everything by walking to Cowes town center.
The location is perfect for exploring Phillip Island main attractions and for quick access to Cowes. The property is truly beautiful and very relaxing. The walking track around the property is a great way to get around to thw facilities. The family facilities onsite are well appointed and maintained.
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.
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 room was a nice size. Had all the creature comforts and had a lovely spa and heater. Was nice having a kitchen. It is close to Cowes and the many tourist attractions Phillip island has to offer
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.
The location was close to many of the areas that we intended to visit which made it really convenient. The house felt like a home. It was comfortable, clean and very well equipped.
