About this property

Scarborough Serenity

This lovely home features a large kitchen and open plan living area which flows onto the alfresco deck as well as 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms (one with a spa bath). A gas log fireplace is a beautiful feature in the living area, the perfect spot to curl up on the couch with a book or a movie on the flat-screen television in the chilly winter months. The house is south facing and features many windows to allow the lovely sea breeze to drift in and keep the home cool in the summer months.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas cooktop, large fridge and microwave and the laundry includes a washing machine conveniently for your use.

The large and very private tree lined backyard is perfect for the kids to play and run whilst you enjoy a drink and barbeque on the alfresco deck featuring a gas bbq and outdoor setting. There is a large amount of space both in the front and back yard to store your boat, jet skis, push bikes and kayaks.

At an hour and 45 minutes from central Melbourne, Inverloch is the perfect location for those wishing to escape the hustle and bustle of city living. With a stunning surf beach as well as a more child-friendly inlet beach it caters to everyone from experienced surfers to toddlers experiencing the beach for the first time. Combined with all of these natural treasures is the charming ambience of a wonderful coastal village full of cafes, restaurants and boutique retailers.

Disappointing- left early. Fine for short stay only.

Booked 8 nights, only lasted 6. Below what was expected from photos. -Looks like 2 levels- but is only upper floor. As such all three bedrooms are directly off the only living area. There’s no passage way- so if you have different bedtimes, house doesn’t work. Bunks noisy. House poorly insulated - cold and noisy (? rodents in under house space) overnight. Even when we bang on the floor boards where they were loudest they only stopped briefly. No drier, owner declined to supply a clothes horse when this was raised. There’s a washing line outside but it’s not undercover. Due to rain we had to hang everyone’s gear inside on the furniture. In the one shared living space. Request pets outside but gate has no latch so be aware it’s not secure. No WiFi. If WFH / learning online as we were, you need to factor in additional data costs/speed issues. Invy Library (which is fantastic!) has free WiFi but limited opening hours. (WiFi wasn’t advertised, but in the last 5 years we haven’t encountered this issue at other Inverloch properties in this price bracket so please be aware). One tv, no streaming. Great location for two nights and if you all sleep at the same time, it could work. Go elsewhere for an extended stay. Our usual homes were booked up. Owners sadly not responsive to our complaints. No compensation for early departure even though advised by second day when we realised we’d be too tired, too limited with connectivity issues, and sick of seeing our washing everywhere. *Real estate agent was helpful and apologetic. Said they took our issues to the owner. Directed us to library and laundromat and did request compensation for early departure which wasn’t forthcoming.

Fantastic location, but some furniture may need to be upgraded

This property is at fantastic location. It is in the center of town, but on quiet street, and walk to the beach. So it is very convenient. Spacious kitchen and living area, which provides good entertainment areas for family stay. The owner also provides various kitchen accessories, which are very handy to prepare family meals. Apart from good side, I would suggest owner may need to upgrade some furniture, specially beds in 2nd and 3rd bedrooms. Because beds in these bedrooms make too much noise. Overall, it is a nice place to stay!

Comfortable and well situated

Loved not having to get in the car at all- Such a quick walk to the beach and the Main Street. The backyard was secure for our dog and the place was very comfortable and warm in the middle of winter. No air con wasn’t an issue for us, did notice the lack of a dishwasher but with 5 people it wasn’t a problem- good to let our teenager learn about dishwashing. Would def stay again.

Not for young families in Summer

Positives- The house was quite clean and the location amazing. Large backyard which also allowed for pets. Negatives- While we knew there was no aircon we went ahead with booking as property manager assured us that even in hot weather, the windows allow the sea breeze to flow through and cool the house down. This was not the case! The house became a hot box for 2 days during the heat. While there are many windows, they are the wind out ones that barely open! We have 2 young babies so would never have gone ahead with booking had we known we would swelter. Also be aware, all bedrooms run off main open plan living space so hard if young children/babies sleeping throughout the day. Also the website states 2 queen beds but one is definitely a double and possibly the second one is as well. Overall sadly we would not return to stay.
