Cosy and convenient

Very cute house which had more amenities than expected. We were on a road trip when we booked it and it was a really good place to just relax and recharge even if it was for just a night. Nice and safe enclosed area to park your car.

Wonderful place to stay.

The layout of the room. The amenities provided are very extensive (washing maching, dryer, dish washer, normal size fridge, coffee machine), which makes our stay a lot more convenient. The accommodation is very clean. The host was very helpful when we forgot our medication at her place.

Welcoming family holiday house.

Quiet location, the family feel and the welcome goodies (thank you!) . Couldn't convince anyone to play football out the back though! The burgers from the General Store were a great meal.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Waves and Whispers. The house and the vibe was very cosy. Amy and Rod had ensured all the amenities are present in the house which made our stay all the more comfortable. Not to forget the little welcome hamper! Right from the kitchen items to the cosy beds and heaters - the property was just perfect! PS - my son had a hearty time kicking some goals in the backyard.

Perfect stay in Philip Island

We had a fantastic stay at this spacious and spotless holiday home, just a short drive from the Penguin Parade. The house was very clean and well-equipped, with a full kitchen that made cooking easy and convenient. The heater kept the home warm and comfortable throughout our stay. Another big plus was the location — it's close to grocery stores and other local shops, which made it easy to grab essentials. A great choice for families or groups wanting a comfortable and convenient base to explore Phillip Island. Highly recommended!
