Great place to stay! Apartment was set up perfectly and the location is so close to everything in Cowes! Highly recommend!

Jacob W.

Loved the place, appreciated the salon quality hairdryer. Everything was perfect and close to everything. I would highly recommend! Plenty of places to eat nearby and you are right on the water. Would be an amazing location in summer!

I found Sur la Plage very clean and a home away from home. Michelle was very helpful and friendly. I would recommend Sur la Plage to anyone looking for a relaxing place to stay. With the beach and cafes/shops so close what more could you ask for. Would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful apartment! very stylish yet still felt homey and welcoming. Would recommend staying at Michelles for a peaceful get-away. Close to the main street and a short walk to the beach. 10/10

Had a great stay at Michelle’s place! Great location, perfect to leave the car and walk to dinner. Very relaxing stay in an immaculate apartment which has all you will need to have a nice weekend away and unwind. Michelle provided great communication to make the stay a breeze. Would love to stay again!

Thanks michelle for the hospitality during the recent stay! Though we only stayed for one night, it was our first night so your cosy abode was so precious to us after a red eye flight! great place you’ve got, perfect location close to everything we need! bed was very comfy and the jacuzzi was awesome! my toddler and i enjoyed it very much, and was a lifesaver to give us some warmth! thank you once again!

Amazing accommodation right on the water. Within walking distance to the beach/main street shops. Great that Sur La Plage supplies tea/coffee/toiletries. Michelle was easily contactable and very helpful.

Jacqui L.

Lovely accommodation, super clean, everything that’s needed for a week away.

We thoroughly enjoyed the location of this apartment! It was extremely close to the beach and the main St shopping area. The apartment was fully equipped with everything we needed to cook our own meals and has more than enough space to prepare. Everything was clean and tidy and the layout was perfect for what my partner and I were looking for. I would definitely stay again in the future!

The apartment is very comfortable and quiet. It is located within a very short walking distance of the main shopping and restaurant area at Cowes. It is even closer to the wharf. We will stay there again!

Michelle's place is awesome. My husband and 3 month old stayed here over New Years for 4 nights. It's spacious and in a great location right opposite the beach. We were a little worried about noise in New Years but it was super quiet 😊 would definitively stay again.

Lauren M.

A gorgeous (and big!) apartment opposite the beach. Couldn’t have asked for a better play to stay. Michelle was lovely and easy to communicate with all along. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Awesome spot!! Next to the super sick beach and a beautiful little town with delicious food. The rain and clouds stopped us from going for a swim, but it set nature up for some chill, relaxing scenery. 10 out of 10 :))

Pio W.

Place was fantastic, Michelle was a great host and always following up with any questions you had. Plenty of amenities provided and apartment in a convenient and quiet location close to town. Would recommend to anyone travelling down to Cowes.

Michelle was a great host! Communication with her was very easy and this made us feel welcomed. The place was exactly as described and pictured, and it was a great getaway destination. We loved that she had so many movies to choose and even boardgames to play. Thanks Michelle!

Carly N.

Such an incredible place! Immaculate and had absolutely everything we needed for a little getaway (movie selection, games, coffee/tea/treats, take away menus, maps) not to mention it being just an absolutely clean and beautiful place. The only thing I wish it had was wifi. However the location, cleanliness, kitchen supplies, etc surpassed perfection! Thanks again :)

Allison C.

Thank you Michelle for the wonderful home. It was much better than expected! I'd definitely stay here again if we were to come back to Phillip Island!

This accommodation is exactly as described. The complex faces the beach and is very central. Ideal for walking to the beach, shops, restaurants etc. The apartment is furnished with good quality fittings and furniture, it is neat, clean and the furnishings are in good condition. It is very spacious and the host has provided all you need for your stay - very thoughtful. We made use of the kitchen and bbq but even though it was hot, we didn't need to use the air conditioner, the apartment stays nice and cool all day. We like quiet accommodation and even though this apartment is in a large complex and the balcony overlooks a carpark (with a bit of sea views), noise was never an issue. We stayed here with our 1 year old baby. There was plenty of room for our portable cot and it was a safe environment for him to crawl around. No baby hazards, except for a few pretty vases which we easily moved out of his reach. He loved the spa! In summary - very clean, well equipped and centrally located spacious apartment with a great and responsive host. Would recommend to others and would also stay again. Thanks Michelle for a great stay in Cowes!
Meri V.

Michelle's place is fantastic, such good value for money. No amazing views but who cares when the beach is literally across the road. The apartment was spotlessly clean and so well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The spa is a great little bonus and the full size kitchen is great if you want to cook instead of going out. Everything is within walking distance and the beach across the road was beautiful to swim in. My partner and I will definatly be back - thanks Michelle
Amy B.

Sur la Plage is such a lovely place! Perfect location, close to the beach and main shops/restaurants. But the spot is also quite quiet and secluded. The apartment is perfect for a couple and has everything you need to have a self contained time away. Michelle is a lovely host and was great with communication from the get go. Highly recommended!
Monica H.

The perfect getaway apartment right on the esplanade by the sea in Cowes. Plenty of indoor entertainment provided with the added luxury of a hot tub. Well equipped for cooking and pretty much self sufficient. Totally enjoyed our relaxing holiday in this very comfortable apartment. Highly recommended for a blissful holiday.
Jean K.

Absolutely amazing stay! Such great apartment that was really affordable especially with all the great luxuries. Wonderful location and communication with the host Michelle was very smooth as she was very responsive. Awesome place, can't wait to come back :)
Laura W.

Thank you so much Michelle for allowing us to stay in your beautiful apartment and for your excellent communication. We had a wonderful relaxing two days in Cowes. The apartment is in a perfect location being just across the road to the beach and a block from the Main Street. The apartment was very cosy and was wonderfully stocked with everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. We also enjoyed having a BBQ lunch on the sun filled balcony. Looking forward to returning again, but for a longer stay next time.
Thanks again,
Patricia & Tunde

Michelle's apartment was great. As described and fantastic location. Everything was there that we needed for the weekend including useful household items eg. glad wrap, that you would not have in a serviced apartment. Michelle was also easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend. Thank you!
David M.

We stayed at Michelle’s for two nights and loved it. The place was neat, clean and well prepared for our stay. Added touches such as body wash in the bathroom (we forgot ours) as well as coffee/tea were much appreciated. We highly recommend staying here as a getaway. We loved Philip Island and will definitely be back again.
James R.

Once again my fiancé and I stayed and Michelle's lovely apartment. This is the perfect little getaway for anyone who's looking to stay on the island. Michelle is an amazing host/person and exceptional to deal with. Don't stay anywhere else! I recommend staying longer than 2 nights if possible, you won't regret it. Will be returning in the near future.
Brendan & Tayla

Awesome spacious and comfy accommodation in an excellent location. A nice quiet spot but walking distance to the shops and right across the road from the beach. Excellent kitchen and bathroom facilities with all the essentials provided as well. Michelle is a great host and all the access instructions are informative and easy to follow. Thanks for the great break!
Marion S.

Best location in Phillip Island opposite beach and shopping strip. Clean and bigger than expected room. Despite never meeting, the host was a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended!
Matthew C.

Very nice apartment with lots of nice little touches, and also in a great location. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. Will be back!
Chen-Po S.

We had a great time on this mini trip to Phillip island. Michelle was a great host and ensured our check in and out was smooth and fuss free. As for the apartment, it was more spacious than expected. Super clean and comfortable. The location was also excellent - walking distance to beach and shops! We would recommend Sur la Plage. Thanks
Raylene K.

We had a great time, Phillip island is just gorgeous, what a fantastic part of the world! The property was lovely and clean, which is a massive thing for me! My parents own a B&B and mum is an nut when it comes to cleaning, so it was nice to not have to worry about cleanliness. We couldn't speak higher of your apartment and look forward to coming down again soon (for longer!!!) Thanks again,
Gemma N.

It was the perfect place for our first anniversary. Worth every penny. Beautifully presented rooms and with the beach across the road made for beautiful evening walks, admiring the scenery. The perfect little getaway. Highly recommend and would love to go back in the near future.
Brendan & Tayla

The apartment was great, clean and well maintained and close to beach and main Cowes shops. Access was easy and the undercover car park a bonus. Enjoyed every moment of our short stay.
John & Jackie P.

Michelle's apartment was clean and luxurious as described. We found it to be the perfect getaway in Phillip island. The home has everything we needed, and more! It was also lovely to be able to pick from a range of games and DVDs for our entertainment. Michelle was lovely to deal with, offering us her assistance whenever we needed. Would recommend staying here. Thanks Michelle.
Kylie E.

It's an awesome apartment and equipped with everything we needed. We actually prepared our meals there. There are also books, movies and board games provided at the property. Michelle is friendly and always there if we need help. There are restaurants and supermarket nearby, and also a couple of shops and souvenir stores. Penguins parade, koala conservation, churchill farm and chocolate factory are all within 10-20 mins drive. Very convenient location. Highly recommend!
Leona K.

Michelle's place was in a fantastic location. Right on the water and within walking distance to the main street of Cowes. Perfect location for what we needed. The property was accurately described and wonderfully clean. Key pick up went very smoothly. All Michelle's instructions were clear and easy to follow. The place was very spacious and bright. A great range of kitchenwares in the kitchen if you want to cook. Pleasantly surprised to find a DVD collection to chill out with at the end of the day.
Rebecca C.

 

Fantastic place. Close to Cowes, lovely apartment, clean and tidy and very comfortable indeed. Michelle was a pleasure to deal with and everything went very smoothly. Will certainly stay again next year for the Island Classic weekend!
Thanks again,
Mandi

Booked Michelle's place as a getaway for my parents in-law. The apartment was cosy and perfect for 2 guests, conveniently located just a stones throw away from beach, kids playground, Cowes pier and local shops. Highly recommended.
Brian N.

We stayed in Michelle's apartment for two nights and it was amazing. The apartment itself is modern as well as warm and inviting. It has everything you need. The location is prime, it was fabulous walking out the door, across the road and onto the beach! Being so close to the main street of Cowes is also an added bonus! Michelle was fantastic, checked in on us to make sure everything was ok after we arrived, and always very prompt to reply. Will definitely be back to stay in 2015, highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a fabulous home away from home!
Britty H.

This apartment was so beautiful, and it had absolutely everything we could have needed. Walking distance to some beautiful restaurants and pubs in Cowes and of course immediately opposite the beach! The apartment was clean, comfortable, well-appointed and very secure and private. The balcony and spa were such a great plus for us . Michelle was efficient, friendly and professional. We didn't see her as she lives off the island but we still felt very catered to. We had a wonderful time and are keen to stay again when we return to Phillip Island! Worth every penny. Thanks Michelle!
Pippa R.

We had an amazing time at Michelle's apartment. It was right on the beach, and so close to everything. The apartment itself was beautiful, and had everything in it that you could wish for! Michelle was very helpful, and kept in touch, and even advised me on some nice restaurants to eat at. Overall, extremely happy, we had a great weekend, and I would recommend to everyone!
Thanks! Marc

This place is fantastic. I had never been to Philip island before this visit and I am so glad we booked sur la plage it was a great place to stay. The apartment is large but not too large with everything you need. The added benefit of the spa bath was great! Michelle kept in contact and was very accommodating even though we never actually met her. It was a great visit and I would go back again.
Ben R.

We found the apartment very comfortable and conveniently located - after driving from interstate just being able to walk to the restaurants, shops, etc, without having to use the car was ideal. Whilst I was at the track, Kathy said she found the apartment felt safe and secure. The secure parking also provided peace of mind.  We look forward to staying with you again next year.
Regards, Ron H.

We had a wonderful time. The property is beautifully appointed and within walking distance to the beach, shops, meals and entertainment. It is also ideally located for all sightseeing tours either by private vehicle, or walking to board ocean sight seeing tours etc. A truly idealistic location. We will definitely be back. Thank you once again for allowing us to stay at your property.

We had a terrific time at Phillip Island and at Sur La Plage specifically. Upon arrival the apartment was clean and tidy.  The facilities and equipment within the apartment were great. You really went above and beyond to stock it up. As a foodie I enjoyed using the kitchen. All equipment in the kitchen and elsewhere seemed to have been in good order and we enjoyed being able to play cards or watch a DVD. Liaising with you Michelle was easy and convenient. Overall I think we got good value for money and will be happy to recommend.

Hi Michelle, Just wanted to let you know that we had a great time at Phillip Island and found the apartment fantastic.  It was really well set up, comfortable and it had everything we required.  It was also in a great location. Also thank you for the text asking if everything was OK.  Really appreciated.
Regards, Cheryl & Mark L.
