The accommodation was still new, fresh, clean and well maintained. It was furnished with High speed internet connection (did we mentioned it's actually STARLINK?) As an IT guy myself, I was so happy. The kids (we have two boys) can watch their cartoons on youtube and NETFLIX undisturbed and I can continue on working on my project. The kitchen have everything you need to cook whatever you want. The gas stove was excellent, and it has a Diswasher as well!! It also only 4 minutes drive away from Cowes' Jetty and Coles and Woolies and Gas Stations and restaurants. We were visiting my sister who lives in Corinella and I cannot be more happier with everything The Gap Retreat have to offer. Nit to mention that the owners (Mark & Savannah) are very helpful with everything. We were so happy to habe found this place and are planning to absolutely stay there again when we travel to Phillip Island in the future.

Amazing and unique place to stay in a very peaceful residential area of Cowes, the main town of Phillip Island. Vanessa was a fantastic host and very welcoming. She allowed us to stay a little longer than checkout since no one else was arriving, which gave us more time to explore the beautiful island. Cereal, bread and milk were provided for breakfast, along with Vanessa's homemade jam. The bed was huge and comfy. Really wish we could have had more than one night.

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island.

Cowes is a beautiful cultural town on the island. We had dinner at a different restaurant each night! Italian, Greek, Thai, Japanese and Gelato for dessert - we couldn't fit any others in but there's many more. All the food was amazing. The Island itself provides such a vast amount of activities to do from Peguins, beaches, lookouts, kids entertainment, parks, wineries it has it all!

Great central spot for our visit to Philip Island attractions - Penguin Parade, Nobbies, Vietnam Vets Museum ... all great places to spend some time. As well as visiting some lovely places to eat! Didn't make it to the Markets ... maybe next time!

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint.

The penguins were an essential visit and didn’t disappoint. Lots of wildlife to see. Local venues had live music and the food was wonderful. Only draw back is Cowes seems to shut down after 10pm, so need your own entertainment after that, we just listened to the ocean and relaxed.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island.

Cowes is a lovely shore side town on Phillip Island. It is at the far end of the island from the bridge to cross over to the island. The town is well equipped with all softs of shops, and is a good spot to use as a base to travel around the island and experience all the sights that are available.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water.

Cowes is a cool climate beach and water. If you cannot afford cost or time to get warmer water, enjoy what is affordable at Cowes. If you want extras, try half-hour drive to San Remo pub, or one hour to Wonthaggi.

Glen Isla House is the perfect accommodation to visit Phillip Island. Richard and Eave have been very welcoming and gave us all the information we needed to plan our visit. The location is very quiet and the lounge where breakfast is served is to a very high standard, not to mention the quality of the food being served (everything freshly baked) and the delicious coffee made by Richard with his Jura coffee machine.
