Family friendly stay
Our family with two young kids had a good stay here, combining some beach time with visiting friends in Geelong. House has 3BR, modern kitchen. There's Aircon in the lounge but not bedrooms, and a washing machine (no dryer but we just used the big back deck). The backyard opens onto a Greenway path, 5 mins walk one way goes to a footy oval and a big playground, 15 mins walk the other way goes to a smaller playground and main Jan Juc beach. You can also walk 5-6 mins to a closer beach that's not patrolled.
There's a Coles 5 min drive away, and a fish and chips, pizza place, pub, cafe and restaurant 5 min walk away.
We found Jan Juc beach a little bit rough for the kids swimming but good for sandplay but drove 5 mins to Torquay surf beach and that was great. We also visited the Waurn Ponds swim center on a rainy day which has indoor waterslides and took the kids to MoPA children's museum which was great.
Host communication was excellent and overall this stay was great family value.
