Alandra stay
My family stayed at this beautiful little house on the weekend and I was blown away how clean it was! Very close to town and to the water. We all had ample space and having the two bathrooms was great also. I certainly would recommend the house to anyone. Our host was super responsive also which was great.

Country Week Cricket
Great spacious located house for our 3 nights in Portland for U13’s Country Week Cricket. The only thing was the 1st night was warm and the bedrooms didn’t have cooling or screens on windows to open them when the cool change came. 1 little fan in one bedroom. If we were coming back to Portland would certainly look to book here again

Long Weekend
Wonderful property, right in the central area - no street noise, friendly locals, and the property manager covered all of the bases and made sure we were taken care of throughout the process, start to finish. A great house for couples, families or small groups that want to be able to see the sights and relax in the evenings (or not have to drive home after going out on the town :) )

Amazing little house!
What a delightful house to stay in! We came to Portland for a family funeral, sadly. It was such a treat to have travelled so far (regional QLD so several long car drives and multiple flights) and to arrive at such a quaint, beautiful, light and airy house conveniently situated across the street from an IGA, pub and coffee shop. The rooms were beautifully appointed, including the dining table, the lounge room with lots of windows to let light in, and the front sitting room with a bookshelf full of novels and board games. Two bathrooms is very handy for our group of 4 adults and 1 toddler, as were the kids cubby house, porta cot, stroller, and high chair. The kitchen was always well stocked - better than I’ve seen in many other rentals in my time. I highly recommend this place, and have already recommended it to many relatives I have in the area for any future guests they may have coming to town. Oh, and Fab was also a great host - often communicating and ensuring we had everything we needed.
