Beautiful Boat Harbour

Delightful house with gorgeous view of the Bass Strait and just a couple of minutes walk down steps to the beach. The house is exceptionally well equipped with everything you could want or need. Extremely quiet location and Seekers cafe is a stone’s throw away - coffee/breakfast/lunch (+ cakes and muffins). Linda (the property manager) is great to deal with. Highly recommended for a quiet holiday or weekend break.

Best beach break in Aus

We stay at Summer House at least once a year. Beautiful view, house has all you need, fenced yard and a short walk to the beach for our puppies. Best beach in Aus, worth the drive to relax and unwind at Boat Harbour.

The best spot in beautiful Boat Harbour

What a gorgeous spot with the most stunning views out across the beach and sea. Very comfortable sofas and beds and had everything our little family needed for our stay. Communication with the owner was fantastic, we had an issue arise and they dealt with it very professionally and swiftly. Highly recommended.

A Piece of Paradise

Property in a great location to take in magnificent panoramic ocean views from the comfort of the Lounge and front decking. We loved having breakfast in the cleverly designed dinning area also taking in the ocean views. Pantry and kitchen supplies were extremely well stocked. I would rate this property a 6 star rating even though I could only go up to a 5 star. Thank you Linda for a memorable stay.
