Didn’t know we were sharing the lounge and kitchenette with another room though.
Love the collection of penguin classics in our room. Wanted to stay longer and read them all!

I stayed in one of the new studio cabins.
I stayed in one of the new studio cabins. It was really well set out and had everything that I needed, along with beautiful crisp white sheets and fluffy towels. It was a very pleasant stay and the hotel staff were all helpful and friendly. It’s also in a very good position right on the beach and a short walk to Cowes township.
Definitely worth a visit!

Cowes is a live town not just a tourist town with everything you need easily accessible. Lovely locals, lots of options, interesting and nature all around. Easy, short drive to Penguin parade and multiple beaches. Very clean, safe and picturesque, a great location from which to discover the island's many attractions.

Stayed at North Pier Hotel .
Stayed at North Pier Hotel . We booked family room which comes with an outdoor patio. Great location. Within walking distance to family friendly beach and restaurants. We had the best lamb curry in Chocolate Factory cafe. Not spicy, lamb was tender, suitable for kids. Love the fish and chips!! We purchased bundle pass which comes with Penguin Parade, Churchil Island (picnic area, picturesque view, Highlander cow), Koala Conservation (spotted lots of koala on the trees while walking on boardwalk). Highly recommended these places of interest.

I am sending these 2 photos as on the screen shot you see I paid for a studio with patio and balcony and all I got was this pod for $500 per night.
They lied about what my accommodation was to you.
Probably because they had a big group staying as well they decided to shove me down in a "trades pod".
Unacceptable! They need to give me a refund and booking.com can't trust them in the future!
Thanks Kerry
Comfortable clean property, quiet location but close to shops, cafes, Cowes jetty. We only used the kitchen for breakfast, snacks etc but it looked well fitted out in terms of cooking utensils etc . Nice big outdoor balcony with distant water views, hopefully shade sails will be fitted before summer.
Upstairs living gives some lovely water views ( but you need to like going up and down stairs - which we decided that we didn't!)
Good storage and space. Great to have a house not cluttered with ornaments and knick knacks.
Motel was located close to centre of town and restaurants as well as a short drive to the Phillip Island Racetrack. The motel supplied plenty of tea and coffee as well as biscuits (something that seems to be rationed these days at other places) and the staff made sure we were happy. The room was large and had everything we needed. I would recommend it very highly for anyone going to Phillip Island. For those attending the racetrack there is also trailer parking available.
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
the apartment was amazing - our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer! We spent one night on Phillip Island so we could go to the penguin parade. the apartment is perfectly located for this and for popping into Cowes, which has plenty of shops and eateries. beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean, there wasn’t anything we would change - lovely warm welcome and explanation of how things worked!
Room was surprisingly good because the amount we paid for it was quite ideal. Had a balcony (view wasn't of the beach but it was a bonus). Tv was a decent size and connected to the wifi for subscription streaming. Mini fridge was good. The spa bath was amazing that we used it both nights! Walk to the beach was 60 seconds.. 60 seconds. Close to the main strip of Cowes by foot. We'll be back.
Beautiful townhouse in a fantastic location. So close to the main street, it was so easy to walk down there as well as to the beach. The townhouse itself was lovely, modern and very clean with lots of natural light. Master suite was so inviting! Good amount of room for the kids to play as well, so it really was ideal and we will definitely stay again next time we head to Phillip Island.
Total comfort beds very clean excellent location near main st good shower facilities plenty of room , quiet area.good parking
An ideal place to stay in Cowes. A really well kept motel,a total joy to stay well worth the money. helpful staff
The guest house was only a couple of minutes drive from Cowes. Evie and Richard, the owners, were lovely people and went out of their way to accommodate us. Breakfast was “WOW” amazing and delicious!!!
Great Location with a great view of the water
Was very quiet and laid back
Very close to the main street in Cowes , so was close to restaurants , bars and shops
Added bonus of underneath car park
The venue was clean tidy and well appointed. The guide book on the property was perfect.
Everything was great and I highly recommend the property on its own, let alone the fact it is close to Cowes
The location was perfect. The property was extremely comfortable and suited our family needs. Walking distance to Cowes shops and restaurants. Beach access is less than a minutes walk.
It was nice to be closer with nature and animals. The room was very nice and clean. My kids enjoyed facilities (playground, kart...) in hotel. The restaurant food was alao nice.
Cheap and cheerful accommodation within walking distance of a beach. A bunch of things for kids to do on site but you'll need to drive into Cowes if you want any services
It was lovely staying at Genesta House. The staff were amazing and the room was great. It is also positioned in a quiet street and close to the main part of Cowes.
The location was second to none. The hostess/owner was delightful and the house and gardens were beautiful. All in all a very lovely couple of days spent in Cowes.
The staff were very friendly and happy to help with anything. There were plenty of things for our children to do in the holiday park which made them very happy.
