Whisperingsand-The Beach House

WhisperingSand Beach House is located in the seaside village of Kilcunda, just ~10km from Phillip Island/San Remo, ~14km from Wonthaggi on the stunning Bass Coast, and only 1.5 hours from Melbourne's CBD. It is the hidden gem of the Bass Coast and a great holiday base for the region. There are many activities you can do around the area, surfing, fishing, paragliding, coastal walking, riding/cycling etc just name a few. Of cause, beautiful beaches, BBQ, picnics and children's play ground, rock pools, good food/drinks are also among the list of things you can do. Say the least, have a drink/coffee at the Kilcunda pub, watch the wave pounding the rocks and enjoy sunset on the balcony of the WhisperingSand Beach House.

The WhsiperingSand Beach house is only a short walk away from the beaches, ~100m to coastal walking/cycling tracks and Pub, located in a quite street behind the Kilcunda Pub (Ocean View Hotel) which is famous for not only a fabulous view of the coastline from the front deck, but also great food and hospitality.

Standing on the balcony of the WhisperingSand beach house, the spectacular ocean view of Shelly beach just right in front of you, looking the waves rolling to the beach and listening the sound of waves pounding the rocks. During the summer months, you can also see the amazing sunsets over the ocean even sitting in the living room.

The Shelly beach, which have nice rock pool for kids to play, is right in front of the beach house, with only <100m walking distance. The Kilcunda surfing beach is also within walking distance.

The re-developed George Coastal walking track is right on top of the ocean cliff with spectacular view the Bass coast including Philip island and Cape Paterson.

The old Bass Coast Rail Trail (from Anderson to Wonthaggi, ~16km) has also been re-developed into a nice cycling/walking track passing many historical mining sites with fantastic scenery.

Short drive to San Remo (~8-10min), you can enjoy the Sunday market there, or to Philip islands where lots of fun and activities for family and kids.

Also a short drive (10-12min) to the mining town center of Wonthaggi, where large department stores and services are available.

It's all about the ocean view!
It was fine for our budget. Beds were comfortable. Location was great & the view was great. Everything is very worn & dated though. It could do with a smart tv or dvd's to use in the dvd player. We also found the cleaning instructions a bit excessive, especially there was a Xmas tree in a garbage bag in the room. downstairs! Thank you for the early check in & late check out.

A great get-away location
Lots of room in this house. Wonderful view of the water and sun sets from the lounge room and balcony. Within walking distance of beaches / coastal trails / general store etc. Easy access to Phillip Island and Wonthaggi. Host was great to deal with. Thank you for our lovely Kilcunda short stay.

Enjoyable Christmas holiday experience with family, location 45 min from home our first Xmas away.
The property was large enough for my family, 5 teenage grandchildren my partner and our son. Kitchen I found was a little small but had enough of the kitchenware we needed, a little disappointed there was no barbecue, but would of been another thing to clean anyway. Property was close enough to the beach good exercise for the kids to walk to, good walking tracks nearby and a general store just on the main road. Wonthaggi is the closest town about a 10 minute drive if you wanted to buy extra groceries. The manager was very pleasant she left easy instructions to get into the house and we were left with a Christmas gift surprise we thoroughly enjoyed.
