Best hospitality ever - amazing host, gorgeous place
We had a wonderful stay at Casablanca in Cowes. Anne is an amazing host. You can tell that it’s very important to her that her guests feel welcome. We felt right at home in her cute cabin that reminded us of summer in the Mediterranean. The beds were very comfortable. The neighbourhood is nice and quiet. Lots of DVDs to choose from and the beach is only a few minutes drive away.
Lovely experience.
Thanks for everything, Anne. x

Cozy atmosphere
Lovely, cozy property, with lots of accomodations including books and movies, we had a great time. Anne was lovely and extremely generous.
Excellent host who cares for guests. She is very friendly and provided necessary info for site seeing. Cheese platter in the fridge for us was a pleasant surprise. Overall we had excellent experience.
Anne was a great host with Casablanca providing comfy beds and plenty of amenities. The kids were particularly excited to get some fluffy penguins. When we return to Philip Island, we'll stay with Anne again.

Great stay, very comfortable and lots of space. Anne is a very generous host.
A unique property with a great host who went the extra distance with things like snacks, fruit, juice in the fridge. Even homemade cookies for the young ones.

cozy home away from home
This accommodation was cozy, the courtyard with all the flowers was lovely, cheeseboard was a good touch and the living area and bathroom was spaceous vs motel rooms. Not that central in terms of location but it was quiet and host was very nice and accommodating.

So cozy!
Anne met us when we reached, she was so lovely and warm, she explained everything we needed to us. Her home was inviting and so cozy, you will enjoy it even more if you love flowers and plants! It's very near the Nobbies and Penguin Parade too! Thank you Anne for such an amazing experience.
Anne is a great host and the place is perfect for a short or long stay

great host
The owner was one of the most generous and caring hosts and that we have met.
The bed main double bed is in the open plan lounge kitchen and the second bedroom is separate from the unit so a bedsit with a separate bedroom is a more accurate description. It is ideal for a couple.
The unit was also a bit dusty, and would have benefitted from a good once-over

Average exercise
Anne is a great host. The cheese board and snacks provided were amazing. She had extra chair pads and blankets to take to the Penguin parade. It was the cleanliness in the courtyard, around the windows and the spiders in almost every room that let her down.

Wonderful Host
Great location and picturesque outdoor setting to relax after your journey. Anne was warm and hospitable and took care to make you feel welcome with a cheeseboard, snacks and lovely toiletries.
Would definitely stay again.
Ann is a very nice host. She made us a welcome cheese board with a wide variety of cheese and pickled food. She reminded us to book the ticket for the penguins early in this peak season. She was right. The "sold out" signs were all along the way. Lucky that we listened to her. Ann got us cushions and rugs, too.
The hot shower was heavenly after being in the wind 3 hours waiting for the penguins.
Just one thing, the wifi was a bit weak. But it let us focusing on what we should had enjoyed, not the phone.
