Guest Reviews

• Briony (10/5): Loved our stay at this beautiful house, was very affordable and suited for everything we needed! - Beautiful place, was perfect size for all our family, easy to get to as well as into. Great communication by host, loved our stay! Thanks Robert for having us :)
• Andrew (10/5): -
• Nhung (10/5): Beautiful home away from home - Like a home away from home. Such a comfortable stay. Had pretty much everything we needed. Very thoughtful little touches like having the power boards up higher for plugging in phones. Would definitely stay here again if we return.
• Jamie (10/5): - The home was lovely very cosy
• Ros (9/5): -
• Michael (10/5): Great place for a family stay - The place is big and functional and comfortable, very suitable for a family
• Tegan (8/5): -
• Ivan (9/5): -
• Philip (9/5): Most Enjoyable stay and would highly recommend and the Price was incredible - All the facilities and resources were Compact and made it very easy to access Comfortable Beds shower lounge kitchen dining Room all great Just a minor detail the mirror in the bathroom wasn’t over the sink and that was the only reason why a gave it a 9 instead of a 10
• Ben (6/5): Great location, comfortable beds - Location great The bathroom - very poor plumbing with the shower. Water everywhere. Even despite having the bathmat down (and signed by owner). Very rough paint job in the bathroom. Bit dusty and mould looking.
• Kathryn (8/5): - Very comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, great layout. Not really " sea views" like we expected. Some furniture covering walkway causing badly stubbed and extensively bleeding toe! ( trying to manuvoure around the house in the middle of the night! Sorry about the bloody sheets😢
• Julie (8/5): Clean, comfortable and spacious. Good value for money and would stay again. - Was comfortable and clean. Centrally located and close to some beautifully walking areas. The shower flooding is a real problem and potentially fall risk. However, spoke to owner who said he was waiting for the ordered door. The air conditioning does not reach bedrooms and on hot days is a bit overwhelming. We got some fans and it solved the problem. Would be good to if there was some provided by the property.
• David (9/5): -
• Nick (10/5): A home away from home and had all the comforts required to make the stay enjoyable. - The home had all that was needed to accommodate 2 couples....inc a garage and a huge driveway. It had most, if not more kitchen utensils, bathroom and aircon that worked very well. This home was very clean tidy. It was good that the ocean was just a stones throw away. The Owner was so nice and made contact to make sure we arrived safely and if anything else was required to contact him./ Highly recommend this home. NOTHING -- If we knew the place was so good.... we could've stayed longer!!!
• David-Ashley (8/5): Nice place for a short trip. Good overall experience. - Location and amenities squeaky bed, shower
• Mark (9/5): - Convienient as trip was to hospital and was just down the road..easily located and had homely feel. Shower needs a curtain or door to stop water splashing out to floor but was lovely and warm.
• Maria (10/5): Will book again for our next visit to Portland. - The location was perfect close to everything. We will be returning to Ocean View and highly recommend your accommodation The shower floor mat not very good for the amount of water that wets the mat

• Tammy (10/5): -

• Wagenmann (9/5): -
• Mark (8/5): - Quaint lovely home...location was great..short drive to hospital and easy to find.
• Matt (8/5): Thank you, our stay was terrific. - Great quiet location Property exactly as described.
• Tegan87 (10/5): Overall very happy 😊 - Comfy couches, comfy bed, room to move, space for kids to eat tea and run around, clean, private , relaxing Hair in the sugar bowl, and an extra bath mat would've been good, got a bit wet from the open shower with kids.
• Sleeman Kit (10/5): -
• Ludmila (6/5): Pleasant pit stop on the way to Mt Gambier. - The property was clean and had all the necessary equipment. It was lovely to have an AC to make a convenient temperature and have a big dinning table to share a meal. The property is quite dated, with limited convenience touches. Pillows were uncomfortable and the bed was squeaky. “Ocean views” had very limited obstructed view (in between other proprieties and trees) of the ocean.
• Sunil (8/5): - Apartment spacious Amazing interior design Holiday vibe Very close to the beach in the city Full kitchen Fireplace amazing Not much ocean view, just a glimpse No outside landscape views
• Kylie (10/5): Loved it, thankyou! - Easy communication, clean place, very well thought out. Was great for our young family, with space for the kids to run around Got a bit warm, some pedestal fans for the bedrooms could have been handy
• Josh (9/5): -
• Mitchell (10/5): -
• Kerri (9/5): -
• THAO P DANG (10/5): -
• Ben (8/5): Great stay, very easy to deal with -
• Thomas (10/5): Perfect accomodation for a perfect short stay. - It was clean, everything we needed was provide, communication with the owner was good, location perfect. Loved everything about the property and have zero fault.
• Lily (8/5): Overall a pleasant stay - When the heater was on overnight, other electrical appliances could not work
• Anna (8/5): - Läget. saknar utrustning för att göra riktigt kaffe
• Sally-Ann (10/5): We loved staying at Ocean Views. It was a pity we were only staying one night. - This was a great place to stay. Very neat, clean and tidy. Great comfortable feel. Great price. It is so handy being close to the ocean views and town centre. The host was very quick to reply with all the details on how to access the keys etc. Would definitely love to stay again next time we are in Portland. The bathroom door kept getting jammed closed which needed lifting to open it. Also the shower water puddles outside of the shower area so it would be ideal to move the floor barrier 180 degrees in line with the shower screen to fix the problem. Other than that, no problems.
• Diane in Melbourne (5/5): - One word: disappointing. I took a long time to make a decision about where to stay in Portland and, in the end, I was sucked in by the over-inflated rating of 9.2 for this accommodation. TBH, I would say a rating of 7 would be a tad high for this place. It is rather run-down, although you can see that the owners have made an effort to make it nice. The location is good. Close to where the ocean views actually are. However, it is not within walking distance to any shops or cafes.. I am struggling to think of good things to say. It was quiet. We had somewhere to park. The covered porch was a great shelter from the rain. I feel obliged to write honest and helpful reviews about places I have stayed in so that I can help others. I don't lie or exaggerate. So, here goes: The main concern was the bathroom door. It kept sticking and I got trapped in the bathroom several times. It is a roller door and there is something wrong with the installation. This is a safety issue that needs to be fixed. Also, the shower. The floor tiles in the shower are incredibly slippery when wet (possibly due in part to the awful Portland water) and the lack of a door on the shower?? Say no more... (floods to mop up). It wasn't clean. The carpets had obviously been vacuumed but as soon as you looked closer, you wished you hadn't. Lots of areas needing a thorough dusting, the top of the kettle was covered in grease, stains on the pillowcases, just to name a few.. The main heater was a nightmare. It was either a matter of "turbo" = full blast straight in your face or cold. Thank goodness for the gas heater or we would have been really uncomfortable. The step down into the living room is too deep. I think it would fail a safety inspection. The beds were too soft. The TV in the lounge room needs a new remote control. Privacy blinds or net curtains are needed across the front of the house. We had to keep the main curtains closed the whole time so that people couldn't see in. This included the master bedroom. Finally, in all seriousness, you cannot call this place Ocean Views. Ocean Glimpses would be more accurate. It is a misleading listing. You get tiny glimpses of the sea from 2 windows. Not Ocean Views. So disappointed with this place.
• Christian (10/5): -
• Nina (8/5): - We loved the game heater as it was cold, the fact it had two toilets. The area was very quiet and close to shops etc. Very well equipped kitchen, clean and laundry facilities great. We couldn't park car in garage as door was faulty.
• Rosalind (10/5): Very comfortable a home away from home - Very accessible for my 89-year-old mother All the front windows need privacy blinds on them so when the curtains are open nobody from the street can see inside
• Sarah (9/5): - Great location. Quiet neighbourhood. Wonderful facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The shower wasn't easy with wet floors and slippery tiles.
• Sally (9/5): - Very spacious Lovely ocean views Great communication
• Leigh (9/5): Great and close to coast. - Very clean and had a good amount of space for the 4 of us. Also great for being very close to the stretch of shops. The only thing that was annoying was having to mop up after a shower as the water goes everywhere. The beds were also small, but we are all over 6ft.
• Barbara (9/5): Comfortable beachside stay - Spacious, light & airy. Well appointed. Cold house for a winter stay. Shower sprayed water everywhere.
• 崑鈞 (10/5): - Great location. Walk distance to watch the ocean and sunrise. Great price but have large space and very clean, tidy. Have all furniture you may need. Very very comfortable bed, my daughter said this is the best bnb she ever stay and wanna come back Australia for this house.
• jennifer (8/5): A peaceful and comfortable stay, and a great place to catch up with family. Would definitely stay ag - Easy to find, quiet location. Nice view from kitchen window.
