I stayed in one of the new studio cabins.
I stayed in one of the new studio cabins. It was really well set out and had everything that I needed, along with beautiful crisp white sheets and fluffy towels. It was a very pleasant stay and the hotel staff were all helpful and friendly. It’s also in a very good position right on the beach and a short walk to Cowes township.
Definitely worth a visit!

Cowes is a live town not just a tourist town with everything you need easily accessible. Lovely locals, lots of options, interesting and nature all around. Easy, short drive to Penguin parade and multiple beaches. Very clean, safe and picturesque, a great location from which to discover the island's many attractions.

Stayed at North Pier Hotel .
Stayed at North Pier Hotel . We booked family room which comes with an outdoor patio. Great location. Within walking distance to family friendly beach and restaurants. We had the best lamb curry in Chocolate Factory cafe. Not spicy, lamb was tender, suitable for kids. Love the fish and chips!! We purchased bundle pass which comes with Penguin Parade, Churchil Island (picnic area, picturesque view, Highlander cow), Koala Conservation (spotted lots of koala on the trees while walking on boardwalk). Highly recommended these places of interest.

I am sending these 2 photos as on the screen shot you see I paid for a studio with patio and balcony and all I got was this pod for $500 per night.
They lied about what my accommodation was to you.
Probably because they had a big group staying as well they decided to shove me down in a "trades pod".
Unacceptable! They need to give me a refund and booking.com can't trust them in the future!
Thanks Kerry
Biggest size motor inn we had been for our Australian travelling experience. The staff were all lovely and helpful. Gave us complimentary detergent while we did our self service laundry. Location is convenient in Cowes town center and beach area. Very nice garden area. Parking right in front of room.
Bathroom is a good size.
Comfy beds and pillows.
Has a kitchenette for dining convenience.
Complimentary chocolates and biscuits, coffee, tea, milk.
Recommended and will stay here again in case back in Phillip Island.
Motel was located close to centre of town and restaurants as well as a short drive to the Phillip Island Racetrack. The motel supplied plenty of tea and coffee as well as biscuits (something that seems to be rationed these days at other places) and the staff made sure we were happy. The room was large and had everything we needed. I would recommend it very highly for anyone going to Phillip Island. For those attending the racetrack there is also trailer parking available.
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.
the apartment was amazing - our only regret was that we didn’t stay longer! We spent one night on Phillip Island so we could go to the penguin parade. the apartment is perfectly located for this and for popping into Cowes, which has plenty of shops and eateries. beautifully appointed and spotlessly clean, there wasn’t anything we would change - lovely warm welcome and explanation of how things worked!
Cowes is the place to stay on Phillip Island, and Captain's Nook is walking distance to the centre of town for shops, cafes and restaurants.
Birdlife and wildlife are excellent in the vicinity, Penguin Parade not to be missed (and worth paying for premier seats)
Captains Nook is very well set up, perfect for up to 5 people. Very comfortable bed, lovely spa bath, 2 lounge areas.
The house was decorated beautifully and had all the facilities like a full-fledged kitchen, fridge, utensils, gas hob, Oven, Microwave, Washing machine, dryer, reverse AC in the Hall and tower fans in the bedrooms. Verandah at both the front and back of the house. Free Netflix account to watch movies. As a bonus, the Owner offered free WIFI also.
Great to stay in Phillip Island with the family. Very close to the main strip in Cowes and a short drive from everything in the island. The spa is a plus and the covered garage was very close to the lifts. Great communication with the host, would recommend it.
Even though we didn't do any cooking, there was a very nicely stocked kitchen. The heater worked well and took the chill out quickly upon arrival on a chilly day. Nice place to stay and if we come back to Phillip Island, would stay again.
The staff at the reception counter is very nice and friendly! He helped us with our stay at Phillip Island a lot. The hotel itself is very good. Location is good too. Walking distance to ferry terminal and supermarkets.
The resort exceeded my expectations. The vila is very spacious and well equipped. It is quiet. The staff are very helpful. Very good value in deed. Worth of going back if visiting Phillip island in future.
best hotel in Australia. Not only in Philip Isllsnd. The whole Australia. Good job to the management and house keeping. We’re from Sydney. I definitely comeback and stay to this great hotel. 👌👍
Very spacious house in a very quiet street, super close to Coles and the town. House was beautifully decorated. It has everything we needed. :) Washing machine & dryer were so helpful.
The location was close to many of the areas that we intended to visit which made it really convenient. The house felt like a home. It was comfortable, clean and very well equipped.
Location good: walk to Cowes not too far. Easy drive to tourist locations. House super clean and comfortable, and great set up (apart from no dishwasher!) Terrific deck
Well presented house with everything we needed. Short (ish) stroll to Cowes main street, and short walk to the beach. Great place to visit the penguins from.
this house is excellent for young families, very comfy beds, great location to Cowes Main Street (short 2-3min drive), everything provided that we needed
