About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Luxury bayside stay, w/heated private pool, 75mins from Melbourne. Pet friendly!

Breathe in the fresh salty air as you unwind in the luxurious embrace of Sandpiper House nestled in the heart of the picturesque Bellarine wine region. This modern, light-filled retreat offers an exquisite blend of laid-back sophistication and coastal charm, perfect for those seeking a serene getaway at any time of the year. Picture sandy feet, boats gently bobbing in the bay, and the breathtaking sight of ships gliding across the water as you relax by your private pool with a good book and refreshing cocktail in hand.

Overlooking picturesque Corio Bay, you will be just steps to Curlewis Beach and 2 childrens' parks, and a short walk to the local fishing jetty and boat launch, golf course, tennis courts, and local shopping centre.

This pet-friendly property boasts a beautiful heated in-ground pool and expansive indoor and outdoor entertainment spaces.

We love hosting people from near and far and everyone of any background or community is warmly welcomed here. If there is anything you think we could help you with, or you have any special requests, please just ask us.

Grab a platter and your favorite drink and spend some time remembering some golden oldies or discover new tunes from the vinyl collection played on the record player. If you want to keep in shape you will have your own small gym onsite. Or grab one of the yoga mats, stretch and breath while you greet the day on the balcony over-looking the beautiful bay.

Outdoor Delights: Downstairs, in the beautifully landscaped backyard, a fully gated, graded depth (1.2m one end and 1.8m the other), in-ground pool provides hours of exercise, fun and relaxation. The pool is solar heated all year. This means in the warmer months from approximately November to March, depending on the amount of sunlight, the pool heats to a comfortable temperature using solar power. However, if you would like the pool gas heated to 28 degrees for some or all of your stay please let us know. To cover the gas use there is a small additional charge per day.

The private, fully fenced, backyard is complemented by an undercover BBQ kitchen, a bar fridge, and several sun lounges for you to enjoy. Upstairs, the large outdoor balcony offers expansive views of Corio Bay and the You Yang ranges, a large ethanol burning fire pit to cozy around, a telescope and an outdoor wall heater.

Location Highlights
Enjoy the relaxed and carefree bayside setting of Curlewis which is beautiful all year around. Nestled in the heart of the Bellarine wine region, the iconic Surf Coast and the city of Geelong are only a short drive away, Sorrento is accessible by ferry from Queenscliff, while Melbourne is only a 75-minute drive away.

We are fortunate to have many fabulous wineries, distilleries, cafes and restaurants within a short drive. We highly recommend spending a lazy day exploring iconic towns such as Portarlington, Queenscliff, Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads all within an easy drive and enjoying exceptional food, wine and the views across the peninsula! Check out our guest book for some of our favorite things to see and do in the area.

Additional Information:
You will have exclusive use of the whole property, apart from a locked storage room off the garage.

Access and safety- we have a toilet commode chair, shower stool, ramp and shower grab rail available. Please feel free to request them when booking if they would assist. There is no additional charge.

Other things to note
The ground floor of this two-story home is fully accessible to people with mobility limitations (a portable ramp to access the outdoor deck, and so the home, is available on request). However, the 1st floor can only be accessed by climbing a flight of stairs (indoors or outdoors). Three bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a lounge room and the outdoor kitchen, pool and an outdoor dining setting are all located downstairs.

The home has a security alarm system. There are 3 movement sensors (the small boxes near the ceiling) in the home. These do not take images, they only detect movement within the home when the alarm is activated. The alarm is deactivated during guest visits.

There is a front door intercom camera system that connects to the upstairs consol near the air-conditioning control area. Again this does not record anything- it functions like a front door peephole, so people upstairs can check who is ringing the doorbell.
