  We stayed at 2 Point Nepean Rd for two nights in August as part of a boys’ mid-week golf trip. Every year we take time out from our families and young kids to catch up, have a laugh, and play a few rounds of golf. This year we chose Portsea, playing at both Portsea and Sorrento Golf Courses, and this house proved to be the perfect base.
  
  The property exceeded our expectations. Even though it was too cold to use the pool in winter, we made full use of the half basketball court and games room. I’m certain we’ll be back in the warmer months to take advantage of the pool and the home’s close proximity to Portsea front beach, which would be ideal for kids.
  
  The house itself is well set up. The kitchen is large with a new benchtop, but we opted to eat at the Portsea Pub both nights, enjoying the views over the bay—just 100m from the front door. The layout of the home is excellent, with plenty of bedrooms spread out across the property. This meant some of us could head to bed early without being disturbed by noise from the living or games rooms. It’s a great design that would also suit multiple families staying together, especially with young children who need their rest.
  
  Overall, a spacious, well-equipped house in a brilliant location—perfect for golf trips, family getaways, or a summer holiday. We’ll definitely be back.

  We had the most amazing stay at the ultimate getaway in Portsea for our ballet schools' annual team bonding trip. Lisa from Jellis Craig was such a wonderful help suggesting this property for us. The location was incredible, and the house was so welcoming. We would absolutely stay again!

  Anthony K from Ferny Creek, Vic recommends this vacation rental

  You know the house you're staying is pretty good when you spend three days there and barely leave the house...
  Our family (mum, dad, four adult sons, three partners, 5 grandchildren - all under 7 - and two dogs) stayed at 2 Nepean Place Portsea for two nights and had a ball. The heated pool was such a hit (along with the half basketball court, pool and table tennis tables) that none of us did any swimming at the local beaches. The house is really well laid out with three distinct bedroom zones (up and downstairs) which helped with minimizing overnight sleep disruptions from the youngsters. Master bedroom has its own balcony and a great ensuite with full spa. Upstairs living / meals / kitchen area well laid out and we had everything we needed for the stay. Good size balcony and table to have meals at (if you're lucky enough to score some decent weather - which we did). Great location with only a short walk to Portsea shops (for the essential morning coffee run), Portsea pub (worth booking ahead to make sure you get a table) and pier.
  Jellis Craig, and Taylor in particular, were great to deal with. Not long after our original booking, the house was broken into and damaged quite badly. No problem. With our consent, Taylor moved our booking to another house in Sorrento for the same price. Then, on the day of our check in, there was a problem with the pool at the second house. Taylor proactively let us know and switched the booking back to the original house we had booked (again in consultation with us). Would definitely be happy to stay at this house again with the whole family and use Jellis Craig again.

  D'Arcy W from Collinswood, SA recommends this vacation rental

  Overall we were very happy but there were a couple of little disappointments; we came to attend a wedding so the absence of an iron and ironing board was both annoying and disappointing. There is also a need for some maintenance on the upstairs sliding doors which are hard to open and we were amazed that within 8 hours of arriving we ran out of toilet paper and had to go out and buy more - it seemed a little penny pinching.

  Ashton W recommends this vacation rental

  We had a such a lovely time at the accommodation. Location was perfect - Pool, table tennis and pool table made our trip and we didnt have to go too far at all. Communication was great from host. A few things:
  - I didnt know which button to press on the remote door remote so the gate closed on our car when i pressed the wrong one (ooops).
  - There were no coffee pods which seemed a little odd so we all craved coffee both mornings as we brought enough food that we would not have to drive to Sorrento. It would have been fine if we knew there were no pods and which ones it took.
  -it appeared that borers had eaten away at some of the kitchen windows so there were quite a few wood shavings around.
  In saying this we would stay again and this is feedback on how we would enjoy our stay more thoroughly next time. Thank you.

  This is such a brilliant place with so much to do and so much space. We are an extended family with two sets of very young kids and all the different zones meant everyone had a great time and everyone could find the space they needed. The kitchen was great and we had some wonderful meals. The location is outstanding. The games and pool and equipment meant there was never nothing to do. There are occasional little quirks with the place that never detracted from the stay and we would return again and again

  The team at Jellis Craig were nothing short of amazing. They were nothing but helpful and could not have done more to ensure our stay was awesome. Then add on top the house and it was perfect for our family to use as a base for our son's wedding in Sorrento. Cant wait to find another reason to head down to this amazing property and to deal with Kate and the team at Jellis Craig.

  Location, location, location. Beach, Portsea Pub, walks, cafes etc. Also a great house to sit by the pool, bbq and have lazy afternoon cocktails. Great summer home and I am sure it would be just as great in Winter with its indoor and outdoor fireplaces.
