About this property

Ocean View Penthouse by Ready Set Stay - Coastal Amazing Views & WIFI

In one of the most incredible locations on the foreshore, with a view of the beach from the balcony as you sit on the side and situated in the middle of the main township of Phillip Island, is this luxury top-floor apartment with unlimited wifi.

YOUR HOME
Comprising two bedrooms, one bathroom, and one parking space, this fabulous apartment, with high ceilings and a unique, modern design, is an outstanding opportunity. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances. The home also has an open-plan living and dining area. The living area opens onto a generous private terrace with superb views of the famous Cowes Bay Beach. It is perfect for unwinding with a drink and a BBQ at the end of the day with two couples, or entertaining the whole family.

The bathroom has a sizeable stone-top vanity, a spacious shower, and a jet bath, offering the utmost luxury. The two generously sized bedrooms both have built-in robes and share the spacious family bathroom featuring a large shower, stone-top vanity, toilet, and European Laundry.

The ultra-chic apartment building provides lift access and secure undercover parking for your car, bike or boat. The home is set back from the main street and is perfectly quiet.

There is plenty of space for guests to spread out and relax, with a massive balcony with ocean views.

The apartment is in a building with other tenants, so we only rent to mature guests who will be respectful of our neighbours. The apartment is to be used for relaxation-style holidaying; loud parties are prohibited.

Bedroom 1: 1x Queen Bed (2 guests)
Bedroom 2: 2x Single Beds (2 guests)

The penthouse lived up to expectations. It is well appointed, spacious and very clean. The views are great from the large balcony. We loved taking meals and drinks on the balcony. It is a very close the beach and a short walk to some nice restaurants in the main street.Will definitely be coming back.

Short stay get away

Great location, good size apartment with great views. Overall amenities were very good, lacking cupboard or drawers in bedrooms. Kitchen facilities very good, shower in bathroom way too small , door needs to open outwards to work better. Overall a very good stay and we would stay again.

A night Out

This property was a little teick to find as thought it was on the foreshore, but once we located it just around the corner - the view were still great! Kids loved the space, spa bath and overall it was a great place to kick back and chill! Huge deck for afternoon sips and looking out over the water as the sun set. We’ll be back for sure!

Cowes apartment- great location

We had a wonderful holiday at this apartment on Phillip Island. It is really well located, in walking distance of the shops and of the beach and jetty. The apartment is really light and spacious, and the beds were really comfortable. We suggested new towels would be an improvement, so I hope this has been implemented since our stay.

The location was great, walking distance to the main strip which meant we didn’t need to take the car out even once during our stay. Apartment was a good size for a small family and the balcony was a great space to relax. The apartment was clean, although the bed linen in the master room looked wrinkled, like the sheets weren’t changed, and I found several strands of hair under the pillows. In the shower area there was no shampoo and/or body wash, there was a hand wash in the shower. Other than that most amenities was there in the kitchen which was great.

Great Views & Location, but .........

Cleaning sub-standard,Plumber had to be called to unblock a very clogged vanity basin.Shower base and rim extremely dirty. accessibility extremely limited due to inward opening door, possibly contravenes safety standards. Oven in need of a thorough clean.Enjoyed the large balcony space.BBQ area in need of a good clean.BBQ itself leg buckling, unstable also with broken handle.Bed linen looked as though they had already been used.

Disappointing

Advertised as wheelchair friendly yet couldn’t fit the relatively small wheelchair into either bedroom or bathroom. Had to use a hoist to move our daughter into bed with access only from loungeroom. Not very clean, oven had melted cheese from previous guest. No hand sanitiser during Covid. Didn’t feel like it had been cleaned.

Fabulous location

We loved our stay in this apartment. Amazing location, close to beach and shops. Most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in. Everything we needed was available. All I would suggest to owners is add a bit more detail to car park location (ie ‘stone-tiled Facade with number 130) and a bit more drawer storage in bedrooms would be very useful. We loved our stay here in Phillip Island at this apartment and would highly recommend it to others. Thankyou!
