Twin Palms Island Getaway

Twin Palms is perfect for an easy and relaxed family beach holiday. It is well appointed, just pack the car and the dog and move straight in to home away from home.

It is located 500m from Surfies Point, which is a perfect sandy beach, with gentle waves for boogie boards and beginner surfers, and bigger waves out the back for the more experienced. Sand dunes create endless fun and entertainment for the kids, and rock pools as well for exploring.

Dogs are allowed on the beach with leads the majority of the year with reduced hours during peak times. Please refer to signage at the beach to confirm.

Sunderland Bay is between Surf Beach and Smith Beach, and the Grand Prix track is 5kms down the road. There is a Bottle Shop within walking distance for emergencies, with a short car trip to Woolamai for an IGA, or Cowes for everything else.

The property is fully fenced and safe for animals. You can choose between the front porch to relax outside with your book or glass of wine. Or the huge back deck for sun bathing and entertaining. There is a BBQ and large outdoor dining table and umbrella.

Great Family stay

Great location, plenty of space for the family, including our four legged members to enjoy. Everything we needed and hadn’t thought of was provided at the house. Comfortable and relaxing. It was just what the family needed.

The most relaxing place

We love the fact that we could walk the dogs to the beach, so if you come prepared, you really don’t need to use your car. We had a good wood supply, so with the little gloomy weather we had, we could still enjoy a fire and cosy up on the couch with a big range of books to pick from. Twin Palms has a very relaxed vibe about it, that’s why we are returning customers.

McEvoy’s stay

Many thanks Mignon, we had a great stay. We also had two kids (2 and 4) staying with us in the end. Let me know if we owe you anything. There was plenty of crockery and the kitchen was stocked wonderfully. So many great things to do. The place was so clean and we all loved it. Just to let you know I had some prickles in my clothing after sitting out the back and my swimmers were also itchy. Others also had similar problems.

Weekend getaway at Sunderland Bay

We had a great long weekend stay at Twin Palms. The accommodation was perfect for our needs, sleeping 2 adults and 3 kids very comfortably and accommodating our 2 dogs. Twin Palms was very clean, was well supplied with lots of hidden extras and thoughtful touches. The location was easy to walk to the beach and a quick drive to either San Remo or Cowes for meals/shopping etc. We would highly recommend this property. It was well decorated, has a great beachy feel and is very comfortable. Thanks for our stay!

Perfect Getaway / Highly recommended

We could not have been happier with our 5day stay at Twin Palms holiday house. Sensational house in a quiet location. Very clean and everything provided that you may need if you didn't think to bring it yourself. Would certainly recommend to friends & family !

MotoGP Week

We had a great stay. The property is awesome and everything you need is there. A great backyard and proper BBQ for entertaining or just enjoying the peace and quiet. Walk to the beach or a short drive to shops and, of course, the P.I. Racetrack! I actually walked to the circuit in a comfortable 40 minutes - if you are that way inclined! Thank you for letting us stay at your house, we loved it!

House good, location pretty bad.

Sunderland Bay was a disappointment. A steep track to and from a rocky foreshore. No sandy beach. The estate is treeless and drab. And 8 - 10 km from shops and restaurants. There is nothing there. The house was fine. The barking dogs next door, not so fine.

The beach escape we needed

We came to Phillip Island for the waves and water and the location of this property was perfect for us. There’s a sensational long surf beach with waves that are perfect for beginners boogie boarders, within a short walk from the property. The sand is fine and the water crystal clean and clear with minimal rocks/weed. The same beach also has rock pools for rambling at one end. The property itself is very comfortable and well appointed. Three children shared the spacious bunk room and loved the double bed lower and single bed upper arrangement of the beds. We cooked and ate at home a bit and the kitchen is well appointed for this and the outdoor deck very spacious with a huge bbq. Our cat came with us and the small laundry off the kitchen provided a great location for her litter and food. We also really appreciated the collection of books, dvds and games provided.

Fantastic Holiday Home

We were a group of 4 adults and 2 children and found the house to be a perfect size. Very clean, well equipped kitchen, heaps of books, games and DVD's and good sized bedrooms. More than adequate for our week long holiday with a great deck and bbq area for the evenings. Highly recommend.

Fabulous winter getaway

A gorgeous house that was super clean and had lots of lovely touches. The open fire was used each day by us and it was a cozy warm lounge to sit and read a book with a cup of tea in front of the fire. Secure yard for our dog and a short walk to the beach made this stay one that we would highly recommend.

Amazing holiday house

Our stay at this property was just amazing. The house was exactly as described in the listing. It was extremely clean and tidy, and had everything that we needed for a relaxing break. And, the property was securely fenced to keep our 2 small dogs safe. I would highly recommend this property and would definitely stay here again.

Little slice of paradise

Great place. Great location. Quiet yet not too far from Cowes centre. We had a lovely time celebrating a big birthday with family and friends. Lovely, spacious home. One thing you might address is the decking. Hard to distinguish between levels which lead to two people falling. Also some hand towels and a dish rack would be nice. Overall we loved our stay.
