Heated Indoor pool & outdoor spa, next to beach! Welcome your holiday paradise!

WELCOME TO YOUR HOLIDAY PARADISE! Enjoy spectacular views at the Island Escape, centrally located at Surf Beach on stunning Phillip Island. This holiday rental home is within walking distance to breathtaking beaches, and close to major attractions, wilderness areas, entertainment, and shopping.

The highlight of Island Escape is the fantastic private, heated indoor 12-meter swimming pool. It’s kept at a steady 30-32 degrees Celsius, perfect for everyone in your group to enjoy year-round (see photos). A luxurious 6-seater spa sits outdoors under the veranda, where guests can relax while overlooking the dunes and coastline. After a day discovering all the island has to offer, let your cares melt away in your own secluded oasis.

There is plenty of room for the entire family to unwind: 4 large bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 living areas, Home Theatre Room a fully-equipped kitchen, and an expansive outdoor fenced yard. Ideal location across from the sand dunes with the island’s best beaches located just across the street. If you enjoy surfing or fishing then look no further. Endless options for entertainment within 10km of the property.

Let the kids play on their own private playground or run free in the fenced yard. This ideal location on a double block means children have room to play safely and adults have room to park automobiles, boats, or jet skis.

Another huge hit, not only for the kids but adults as well is the newly set up Home Theatre Room. Stream all of your favourite content, whether it be live action sport or your favourite movies on the state of the art sound system with projector.

Enjoy Phillip Island wildlife viewing from your holiday home: Wallabies roam the sand dunes just across the street, and shearwater birds soar through the sky from September through March. A nature reserve lines the property on one side. The Penguin Parade, one of the island’s main attractions, is just a short drive away.

Other amenities include a large top load washer (big enough to handle beach towels!); Coonara wood fire heater for cold winter nights, and split system air conditioning upstairs and downstairs to keep you comfortable in the heat or even warmer during winter; upstairs living area featuring a 52-inch Plasma TV; downstairs living area with a 42-inch LCD TV; wall-mounted 32-inch LCD TV in the Master Bedroom; heaps of movies available on site for the whole family; plus free Wi-Fi and Netflix.

Family vaccay

Really wrapped with our stay! The house was awesome.. kids were in the pool for most of the day, then at night enjoyed the theatre room at night. Cooked a BBQ on one of the nights and loved sitting around the beautiful wooden table with bench seats and a couple of chairs enough to accommodate our family. It was a beautiful spot where we walked to the beach and up to the Forrest caves on low tide and checked out the rock pools. As far as I know we all had pretty good beds too. The only problem was the holiday wasn’t Long enough!! Hope to return again. Thanks Lucas for your hospitality too, absolute champ!

Very sub standard

Good location. Pool and movie room are great. As for the rest of the property it leaves a lot to be desired. Oven and fridge were filthy dirty. The only heating for all the bedrooms upstairs wasn’t working. The downstairs bathroom had dripping taps.broken slippery tiles to get inside from the pool. Overall the property is badly in need of a lot of maintenance. Paid top price for a very poor property.

Enjoyable family Easter holiday

We had a great time staying at the property. Everyone enjoyed the indoor pool and home theatre. The property is a short and easy stroll to the rock pools and Forrest Caves, and a short drive to the Chocolate Factory and Churchill Island. Communication with the host was always prompt and informative. Thank you for an enjoyable weekend.

Fantastic!!!

As indicated by my 5 Stars for all aspects of the property & the process of booking, this was a wonderful experience. Lucas was a delight to deal with & the property was exactly as indicated in the listing, as were the photos very accurate. We had 8 adults & 4 children as well as 2 dogs. Everyone agreed it was a terrific long weekend away. The Indoor heated swimming pool was great entertainment for the whole family & the Theatre room was such a fun experience. The beds were comfy as were the couches & the fully fenced yard was secure for the kids to play & the dogs to roam. Couldn’t recommend this home more highly. Thanks Lucas from all our family.

Phillip island holiday

We enjoyed Phillip island very much. Lots to do Go kart racing, penguins, Churchill Island nature walks on the beach. The house was a bit tired it could do with a bit of TLC, a coat of paint and a good clean. The pool was as described at over 30 degrees 👌 and the gardens are well kept.

Phillip Island Stay

The property was a bit disappointing as the downstairs area is a bit tired, kitchen needs a refurb and we had some issues with ants that kept appearing around the kitchen bench. Couldn't get the kitchen exhaust canopy over the stove to work, frypans provided were in need of replacing. It was the most expensive property we have stayed at so far and a bit overpriced for just couples. No air con in the master bedroom, which we are used to at home. We spent most of our time during the days exploring the Island and so didn't fully utilise all the facilities in the house. Didn't use the outdoor spa or theatre room and didn't spend much time in the pool. However if the weather wasn't so good, it would be great for families as the indoor pool to the rear of the property is excellent. Also not a lot of instructions for things like wifi password, remote controls, washing machine etc.
