Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a patio, Tranquil House 3 bed - 2 Bath WI-FI is set in Cowes. The property is situated 1.4 km from Cowes Beach, 5.3 km from Phillip Island Wildlife Park and 7.5 km from Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit.

What a beautiful house! Spacious 3 bedroom / 4 bed / 2 bath property in a quiet area close to everything really only a few minutes drive to the beach, wildlife park, shops, restaurants etc. the whole family commented on how beautiful the area and accommodation was :) We were lucky enough to spot a Blue tongue lizard and a possum in the garden as well as some young huntsman spiders (not a fan of the spiders myself but always great to see the native wildlife). The property is dog friendly, we brought along our little sausage dog who LOVED exploring the garden at every opportunity. I would say to bring bug repellent with you for your stay (we couldn’t find any already there) as there is a lot of mosquitoes around especially if you’re sitting in the garden. Overall a fantastic stay :) we would definitely visit again and would recommended to friends.

    The location is right in Cowes. We were delayed and we were advised the reception area would be closed by the time we arrived. The reservations person sent us details on how to obtain our room key which was so simple. The stay was just for one night, Phillip Island offers so much to see and now we will have to come back and of course, we will be staying at the North Pier Hotel.

    Our room was a two-bedroom suite. It was excellent for us as we were travelling with our 2 grandchildren aged 17 and 12. It was good to also have a sitting room and kitchen facilities. It was excellent accommodation for a family. The heating in the room was excellent. The motel is walking distance to the main street and a ten minute drive to the Phillip Island Penguin Parade. Also we left a woollen cap in the room and the owners are going to forward it to us.

Well equipped kitchen, comfortable queen bed and block out blinds make for a great night's sleep. The location is perfect. A stones throw from all the major attractions, local shops and cafes.

    Facilities were fantastic, enjoyed the pool and bbq area. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment and it had plenty of utensils in the kitchen and was comfortable for relaxing. A lovely home away from home. It was our first time to Philip Island and Andrea gave us some helpful recommendations for dining and things to do and see. This accommodation would be perfect when holidaying with extended family or groups of friends too.

    We stayed in the boat house apartment at Oaktree lodge for three nights. Every little detail was thought of including everything you need for breakfast. Sue the owner even provided a little bed for my son. The decorations and cosy atmosphere were heavenly. So relaxing and comfortable and close to Cowes and all attractions. With quiet garden and sea views. This is perfect for a romantic weekend as a couple or a family of three get away. Highly recommend this place!!! Sara
