    Ocean view is a touch of paradise. We had a family get together which was pretty special and ocean view had all amenities that we needed. From pod machine, to games to spectacular views. Wonderful memories were made and we will endeavour to return. Thank you so much.

    Ocean View was a great place to stay with our family. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals in, including plenty of child friendly plates and cutlery. There was plenty of space to relax. We had some lovely walks to the beach through the dunes. The enclosed backyard was great for our busy toddlers.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Ocean View. Indeed, the view is fantastic, the house may well be at the highest point at Goolwa Beach. It's a short walk down to the beach and through the dunes so wonderful for the kids to explore. The pizza oven is a highlight, and the games room with table tennis kept the kids occupied for hours.

    This house was beautiful in every way. Cleanliness, tasteful decor, comfortable, warm beds and fabulous views. We are a group of eight friends and there was plenty of room for us all to be together or to spread out if we wished. We will come back here one day. Highly recommend.

    A fabulous location, beautiful views, very comfortable and safe with plenty to do at the house for all family in doors and outside, and nearby in Goolwa and other towns. Thank you for the generous hospitality, spices, coffee, tea etc. I would have liked sharper cutlery eating knives, a few more medium sized baking dishes, non stick frypans, a smaller saucepan, napkins, tissues, bucket and a standard mop for cleaning floors. Thank you again I look forward to the next stay!
