Manuka Lodge is a double storey family home with fantastic bay views.

When you stay with us, it is not just accommodation you are getting. There is so much more. At the back door you have open parkland and easy access to a safe sandy beach. Sitting on the deck you have the best views of the bay, and you don't have to move. Serenity, tranquility and a calming back drop of amazing water views. Then as darkness arrives, you can see the stars in the night sky and the twinkling of lights across the water. There is always something to look at.

Manuka Lodge is surrounded by wildlife. You can see wallabies, echidnas, blue tongue lizards, birdlife and the occasional koala and wombat.

And the accommodation that comes with all this,,,

Upstairs there are three double bedrooms. An open plan living area featuring a dining area, sitting area and modern kitchen with breakfast bar and plenty of food preparation area.

An elevated sun room leading out to a split level expansive deck with magnificent views of the bay.

The deck has several aspects for flexible entertaining, a gas BBQ and an outdoor setting complete the facilities.

    Manuka Lodge in person is even better than the photos! The views of the ocean are incredible and it only takes a few minutes walk from the back gate to get down to the beach. The backyard is fully enclosed but there are rabbits nearby so I wouldn't trust your pooch to not jump over the low lying fence. Penguin Parade is less than a 10 minute drive down the road, and getting into Cowes for restaurants is only about 10 minutes. We would gladly come back to stay again.

    We had 5 nights at Manuka Lodge over Easter with all of our family. The house was spotless and the grandchildren had a great time in their own rooms downstairs with a separate sitting room with a TV and soccer table. We adults enjoyed the views and outdoor deck upstairs and we were blessed with great weather. We virtually had the whole beach to ourselves which was a short walk out the back gate. The backyard was nice and secure for the children to play outdoors. We visited the Antarctic Centre, the Penguin Parade, the Koala Sanctuary and Churchill Island with a 4 Park Pass for $41 per adult (RACV) and when you add the free attractions like the Nobbies Boardwalk, the Forest Caves Walk and Pyramid Rock, we had days filled with entertainment for very little cost. Thank you William and Helen for sharing your home with us and giving us some wonderful memories shared with our children and grandchildren. We highly recommend this property.

    Perfect property for 3 families, 6 adults & 6 kids. Kids loved to hang out downstairs. Lots of spots to sit and see the fantastic water views with beach walks at your back door. Our dog loved chasing the waves when she wasn’t in the fenced yard. Fireplace kept us toasty warm at night. Good communication with owners. Quiet area of Phillip Island. Would love to visit again. Thanks Bill & Helen

    A beautiful located holiday house. However, it could be even better with a new coat of paint and possibly some new furniture. The house was fantastic otherwise and the experience living there was magnificent.
