Guest Reviews
- Nat Pui Foong (10/5): -
- Jincy (10/5): - We loved our stay! The place was spotless, very spacious and in a perfect location.
The host was incredibly responsive and provided detailed check-in instructions, making the whole process smooth.
You will find everything you need for a perfect stay in Ron's house.
Will definitely recommend to all specially for a larger group.... Nothing to mention
- Adventures (10/5): Felt like being at home :) - Everything at this property has been extremely well thought out, making our stay comfortable, relaxing, and stress-free from start to finish. This was our second time staying here, and it definitely won’t be our last — we will absolutely be back for a third visit.
Communication was fantastic, check-in was simple and easy, and the property itself had plenty of space for everyone to enjoy both social time and their own downtime when needed. It really caters well for groups and makes travelling so much easier.
You can tell a lot of care has gone into creating such a welcoming and functional space. Next time we will definitely make sure we book for longer because we never want to leave! Nothing about this stay was disappointing, can't write anything that we didn't like, only that we had to leave.
- Maree (10/5): -
- Mark (10/5): very impressed - size, cleanliness, comfort
- Guest (10/5): -
- Norma (10/5): loved it, hoping to return. - We liked that they went over and above for example a well stocked pantry, toiletries, night lights, just anything you need was there. Spotlessly clean. A gift box of treats. Easy off street parking. The kitchen was fully stocked so that we could cook and cater for our group. Loads of space and comfortable sitting areas. No
- Aaron W (10/5): - A very nice and clean place that can cater for a large group, complete with a lot amenities and facilities. The host even provide free snacks as a gift. Highly recommended.
- Chloe (10/5): -
- Simon (10/5): Great property for large groups - This is a big property that can comfortably fit a few families.
We stayed as part of a golf trip, where each golfer had their own room.
Facilities wise, the kitchen is well stocked with enough crockery/cutlery for cooking and eating.
There's air conditioning in several rooms, and the Wifi is fast. Grocery shops and coffee are a 5 minute walk around the corner.
Would visit again if I had a big group! The location of the property means you need a car, but that's well known in advance.
It's only a 5 minute drive to the centre of Warrnambool.
- Richard (8/5): -
- Hermus (9/5): - We like the size and layout of the house. We felt comfy as our home. So many things provided in the for cooking is fabulous. The beds are comfortable too. I hope to go back to stay there again one day. None
- Craig (9/5): Very good - Spacious and well set out
- Thi Dung (10/5): -
- rhonda (10/5): -
- Aaron (10/5): -
- Sharni (10/5): I would 100% recommend to anyone visiting the area and would love to stay here again in the future - The space was beautifully decorated, spotless, and had everything I needed. The space was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described—if not better.
The hosts were a fantastic, very responsive, helpful, and went above and beyond to ensure a great stay.
- Chris (10/5): -
- Alice (8/5): Fantastic property although not appropriate for large groups. - Spacious, clean, and comfortable. A beautifully maintained property with gorgeous gift hampers upon arrival. All amenities and needs covered. Neighbours and owners don’t allow noise at any time of the day. Received noise complaints while our large group was waiting outside for a taxi at 7pm. Whilst the property was fantastic it is not suited for the amount of rooms advertised (our group only used half of the beds available). We would have came back time and time again, however won’t return after this experience. We don’t like to be bothersome.
- Karu (10/5): Exceptional stay – truly felt like home - Austral Place 88 exceeded all our expectations. The place was exceptionally clean, very comfortable, and truly felt just like our own home. Everything was well-maintained and thoughtfully arranged, making our stay relaxing and stress-free.
It offers outstanding value for money, especially considering the quality and level of comfort provided.
The hosts, Ron and Debbie, were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and informative. They went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and shared helpful information that made our stay even better.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Austral Place 88 to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay. We would happily return.
- Pedersen (10/5): - Very spacious and clean. Well-appointed with everything you need. Very generous arrival treats. Great communication with the owners. It was all good.
- Paul (10/5): Far exceeded expectations and wished we had stayed longer - This place was immaculate and blew our mind. Best value for money accommodation for our whole trip. It was spacious, well appointed, yet comfortable to feel like home. The beds were comfortable and central heating made for a cozy night. Would highly recommend for a multiple family stay. Communication with the host was easy and responsive. Its a little further out of town but made up for it with its quality and comfort.
- Tajinder (10/5): -

- Abbdon (9/5): Superb - Accommodation was huge! Clean and had everything you needed whether for a short stay like us or longer. Everything was thought of including the small things like cube extensions for lots of chargers etc. Everything was done to a high quality and standard. We even had some free nibbles provided! A few trucks in the area moving around late at night but weren't really loud or a bother, just something to be aware off.

- Diane (10/5): For a small or large group of people this place has everything. It was clean and well organised. - This property was amazing. For a big place it still felt cosy. It was equipped with everything you would need and the owner was more than happy to drop off another gas bottle when we discovered that the one we had was nearly empty.
Highly recommend if you are travelling as a group. Couldn't find anything wrong
- Karthika (9/5): Superb -
- Craig (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nigel (10/5): Don't hesitate to book Austral Place 88 - you won't be disappointed! - Awesome house at Warrnambool for our golf trip. Perfectly located for easy access to both Warrnambool and Port Fairy golf course's which are sensational.
The house is huge with plenty of beds and bathrooms. Great kitchen facilities living and outdoor areas. The house is spotlessly clean with plenty homely touches to make your stay very comfortable. Congrats to owners Ron and Debbie - you have thought of everything to make Austral Place 88 a great place to stay. Nothing.

- Stanaway (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lynette (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. Excellent.
- Helen (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the fact that everything you needed was right there, from condiments to kitchen utensils. The welcome basket was appreciated as was the wine available for purchase. As an older person I found the couch uncomfortable and too low but in the overall scheme of things a small inconvenience
- Sarinah (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic setup. Found all provided and the welcome basket was a sweet surprise. Thank you. Kitchen had all we wanted to have our foods. Linen and others were a great bonus. Hosts were very nice ti leave the lights on when we arrived late. Not much. All were good
- M (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ching-yi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ju (10/5): Room for All - A house with many rooms. Practically a maze in there. Thoughtful amenities. Eg. a dedicated baby room with its own potty with flushing sounds and a wine bar with bottles of wine for sale. Clear instructions for checking out and labels on switches to indicate which rooms they are for. Handheld shower heads in the shower stalls. Heater in the bathrooms for winter. Dust free floorboards and clean bedlinen. 3 bathrooms and 1 toilet. Well-equipped laundry room and kitchen.
Overall, it is a very clean and comfortable place. Shower stalls do not have doors. Bedrooms do not have air-conditioning for the hot days, though they do have ceiling fans.
- Naomi (9/5): Superb -
- Genio (10/5): Our stay was as good as the first time we stayed. - This was our second time staying at Austral Place, and we just love that fact that it can cater for three or more families. We intend on returning again.

- Joanne (9/5): Beautiful, quiet, spacious home close to shops and a lovely river walk. - The home was spacious, so everyone had own private area.
