Guest Reviews
- Gillian (9/5): - The sunny window seat in the kitchen was lovely The shower probably needed a clean
- Thierry (10/5): great - good communication/instruction and good location could not log in tv as it was on someone account
- Justin (8/5): -
- Ann (10/5): Wonderful air b and highly recommend - Beautiful house
- Lichelle (10/5): -
- Sarah (8/5): Lovely older home - Beautiful property comfortable beds overrall great spot to visit The shower was dirty - dirt grime that wasn’t cleaned. Being pick but the tv can be hard to hear as the living room echos.
- Whitney (10/5): -
- Bethany (10/5): -
- Shael (10/5): - Loved the vibe. Very comfortable and quiet. Close to town and the waterfront. Easy parking on and off street.
- Lorraine (10/5): -
- Steve (9/5): Great - Location, size and value for money Nothing
- Monica (8/5): Nice but not perfect - Liked the location We felt more attention to detail was required. It wasn’t perfectly clean- floors, shower tile grout, inside of drawers, cobwebs could have been cleaner. Bin cupboard didn’t open to touch. No glad wrap or foil, no salt & pepper, no washing powder, no tv subscriptions- just free to air, no barbecue- our feeling is that for $300 a night those details could be expected. Perhaps even a welcome pack- most perceived “ high end” accommodation leave guests a bottle of wine at least- if not more.
- Adam (7/5): -
- Kate (9/5): Lovely home in a great location - Well presented home in a great location. It's a shame the spa isn't part of the stay.
- Claire (10/5): -
- Caroline Helen (9/5): -
- Mary (7/5): -
- Renee (10/5): -
- Darren (8/5): we would stay here again as the location was fabulous - great location with many cafe's and short distance to shops and supermarkets the lounge was not very comfortable for persons of our age (unfortunately we found it very uncomfortable)
- Werani Family (7/5): Hui, aber nur auf den ersten Blick - Auf den ersten Blick alles wie auf den Bildern ... ... aber bei genauerem Hinsehen ist es mir ein Rätsel wie diese Unterkunft so gute Bewertungen hat. Der Backofen war do dreckig dass wir Lüften mussten um den Gestank rauszukriegen, das Geschirr/Besteck haben wir komplett vorher durchgespült, Teppich hat wohl länger keinen Staubsauger mehr gesehen, überall tote Insekten, Staub und Spinnweben. Gott sei Dank haben wir nur 1 Nacht gebucht.
- Louise (7/5): - It was very spacious, in a good location, quiet area with comfy beds. The front door stuck on the floor when opening. I couldn’t open the cupboard doors to find the kitchen bin and detergent, so when learning that that’s where they were, I opened them from underneath. Instant coffee and sugar was supplied, as well as green tea but I thought it odd that there was no black tea.
- Liam (10/5): -
- sandra (9/5): We had a great stay. Would recommend. - Clean, felt at home.
- Karin (10/5): Zu Hause in Geelong. - Gemütliches Haus in einer ruhigen Wohngegend.
Fanden es schön, dass man es auch für 2 Nächte buchen konnte. Wir kamen nicht ins Haus. Dachten schon, wir sind zu dumm den Code für die Schlüsselbox einzugeben. Da es erst 20 Uhr war, konnten wir noch anrufen und es stellte sich heraus, dass es der falsche Code war.
- Vanessa (10/5): -
- Guest (1/5): - Beware of late changes to lock code to gain entry. You could be stranded. Luckily we found another place to stay.
- Jessica (9/5): Easy, affordable & clean stay - Very pretty little home, easy to communicate with owner The lawns & gardens needed some attention
- Blagoja (10/5): -
- Helen (9/5): -
- Sheryl (9/5): Restful - Very light & airy cottage. The beds were wonderful.
- Jennifer (10/5): Clean, comfortable. Enjoyed our overnight stay.. - The White House lived up to its name. For four adults it was well provided for. Plenty of kitchen utensils - we needed for nothing. Thanks to our hosts. We could not acess the garage. Would of been handy to get the two vehicles we were travelling in off the street.

- Darren (9/5): Great place , fair price -
- Barry (9/5): Our one night stay was perfect at this location. - Excellent location, quiet street, spacious rooms, good heating, well equipped kitchen. Bathroom/toilet location could be the only small negative
- Niamh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tegan (9/5): Cute house in a great location - Such a cute house in a great location. Super tidy and comfortable. Secure off street parking. Would have loved having access to a vacuum cleaner.
- Julie (9/5): As we had just returned (day sailing) on The Spirit of Tasmania, it was very close to the port and made for an easy star - Bright and airy, had everything that we needed. Liked the coded entry rather than a key. Nothing
- Sallyann (10/5): Exceptional -
- Akshi (8/5): Excellent, comfortable stay, close to amenities. - Central location, comfortable facilities and family friendly. The lounge could have offered more seating, though the seating provided was still comfortable.

5 tea bags for 3 guests for a 4 day stay
No body wash in the shower.
I thought I remember a bbq in the photo but it wasn’t there.
Dangerous Wood pile with nails at the entry of the back car parking.
Needs Re stumping I kept feeling like I was on a boat.
- Lanka (9/5): Excellent -
- Nicolet (8/5): Very good -
- Vicki (10/5): Exceptional -
- Frances (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeremy (10/5): Beautiful house stay - Beautiful place. Quiet and clean. Very luxurious. Loved it Nothing
- Diane (9/5): Well located in an appealing street with many pleasant front gardens. - The open plan kitchen dining loungeroom had large windows with lots a neat greenery outside, which was very pleasant. The large TV had lots of options. Everything we needed was available, although I did find the cupboard under the sink tricky to open but I can be accessed. The property was quiet. It was scary that the door code that we had been given didn't work and we had to phone the property. Fortunately I was able to access the required phone number on my phone. The call was answered promptly and the new code worked and from then on everything was very good and became excellent when a park in front of the house became available, which I suspect was due to the property owner ingenuity.
- Graham (9/5): Superb -
- Trish (8/5): Great stay overall - Comfortable, charming character, The lounge and chaise was very low my husband found it hard to get up from it.
- Sigourney (10/5): Great location, great host, beautiful furnishings, would recommend - Great communication with host and beautiful place, had everything we needed and more. n/a
- Amy (9/5): would use this place again - fantastic location. It was very close to the hospital where our appointment was. We could have walked to the hospital if needed. It was easy to find and the host was fantastic to communicate with.
- Peng (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christine (9/5): Superb - Great location suited our needs for one night perfectly Shame the hot tub was empty
- Heather (10/5): Absolutely loved the place. - It was a beautiful little cottage with plenty of room . The lounge was a bit low for older people. It was hard to get up.
- Margaret (9/5): Lovely stay at the White House - Quiet location Tap in bathroom needs to be fixed.
- Sandra (8/5): Great will definitely use again to stay in Geelong - Would have liked to know about the spa
- Maryanne (6/5): Overall an OK property with the bathroom very tired & in need of an upgrade. - The location was handy to the centre of town. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom needs a heater & a new basin tap plus new towels. The cleanliness of the dining chairs needs attention as does the cover of the ironing board. The second bedroom could do with a mirror and the chipped kitchen mugs need replacing. Value for money did not equal the overall presentation of the property.
- Natalya (8/5): Very good -
- Colin (10/5): Great two bedroom property , 2 mins from a great pub & 15 min walk to the Cats stadium - Location
- Cristina (8/5): Very good -
- Mark (9/5): Superb - Really comfortable rooms, close enough to walk to everything we were doing
- Louise (8/5): Very good -
- Belinda (9/5): Great location and character house - Great size for 3 people, comfortable beds. Living and dinning area. Traditional terrace house. Plates were very chipped.
- Kirsten (10/5): Very cute and comfortable home - perfect two bedroom home, very clean. Beds were comfortable and the street was very quite. Everything you would need for a stay was thought of.
- Jevgenija (8/5): Very good -
- Charlotte (9/5): Superb -

- Jacinta (10/5): Nice and easy with beutiful facilities very happy with this accommodation - Stunning little cottage that made for a very serene stay. Highly recommend.
- Ian (9/5): It was perfect for our stay. - Neat and good location. Had everything except a bath mat.
- Hamish (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bethann (8/5): We’ll equipped house that is close to the Geelong waterfront. - The house was easy to find and parking was available on the street. The kitchen was nicely equipped and the bed was comfortable. There wasn’t a house information book with information like how to log in to the WiFi, restaurant suggestions or a list of recommended sites to visit. It always feels more welcoming when an information book is available and usually it means that the visitor doesn’t have to disturb the host with questions. I had to contact the host for the WiFi information, which they sent without a problem.
There was a strange revving noise that came from outside the house day and night. It might have been the neighbor’s heat condenser. The noise became tiresome. At night we closed the bedroom door, which muffled the sound somewhat.
- Jeffers (9/5): Would stay again in future and recommend to friends - Clean tasteful and modern. Great location. Doonas bit small. King doona would be perfect
- Ron (5/5): Disappointed that the venue, which looked so good was not available at short notice. - Didn’t actually get to stay there. Were relocated to another venue at owner’s direction. The location used was clean but very dated.
- Eileen (8/5): A beautiful home. With a well equipped kitchen in a good location. - The house was consistent with the photos and descriptions.
Good bedding. Well equipped kitchen. One bathroom only and the toilet in there too.
- Powell- (10/5): Exceptional -
