With its enviable address on the foreshore, this apartment combines a fantastic location with all the amenities you’ll need for a relaxed, no-frills seaside escape. Inside, the apartment has a compact design, leading to the balcony. This is a great spot to sip your morning coffee while taking in the coastal breezes. A separate kitchenette is equipped to prepare light meals at home, and you’ll find plenty of shops and eateries close by. Sit down at the dining table or use this space for setting up a laptop if you’re on a working holiday. In the evening, relax on the sofas with a good book or spot of TV. Split-system air-conditioning and heating keep things comfortable no matter what time of year you’re travelling in. The queen-sized bed in the living area comes topped in crisp white linens, set with side tables and reading lights. An additional two single beds and a trundle in the dining and kitchen area cater to those travelling with children. Refresh in the spacious bathroom, choosing from a shower or spa bath, with complimentary toiletries provided for your stay. Shared laundry facilities in the complex can be used at an additional cost. Undercover parking is provided for one car. You'll also have access to a shared courtyard.

Soak up Phillip Island’s seaside lifestyle from Cowes, roughly two hours’ drive from Melbourne. Enjoy swimming and water sports in the calm, protected waters or fish for your dinner off the jetty and cook up a beachside barbeque. Feast on fresh local seafood with a view at Saltwater Phillip Island and The Cape Kitchen. Stroll along the Esplanade, play a round of golf or stretch your legs on the cliff-top George Bass Coastal Walk. Kids will love the daily pelican feeding along the foreshore in San Remo and getting up close to koalas in their natural habitat at Koala Conservation Reserve.
