The Portsea Hideaway - Portsea Pool Paradiso

Cannot be used in conjunction with any other offers or loyalty member benefits.

we love this because...

This beach house is so unassuming from the outside, with its impressive front door being the only hint at a house from the road. But it is so close to everything you need for a beach holiday.
The pounding ocean beaches are within walking distance but take care to swim between the flags at all times.
We love being in the house as it wraps around a central courtyard, and the focus is a heated in-ground pool where we can't get the kids to leave no matter what we offer. We cook up a BBQ and laze in the outdoor lounge, creating our very own poolside piazza.
It's so cool in summer and cosy warm in winter.
We hardly use our car, we walk the short distance to the newly renovated Portsea Hotel for stunning food and great views and a perfect holiday vibe.
We grab our coffee from Le Capucin and stroll across the lawn to take in the views of the bay. For the adventurous among us, we always book a dolphin swim, kayak or snorkelling session with BayPlay because you just can't beat being on the water (at any time of year).
On warm winter days, we choose between the Farnsworth Track, Point Nepean or the Millionaires walk(where we get a sneak peek into how the rich and famous live by walking through their front gardens...for real, absolutely allowed).
IMPORTANT TO NOTE - Property is suitable for maximum of 8 adults plus additional children.

*Please note the swimming pool is heated between November and April only.

PAWfect

What fun! a new house to visit that lets four-legged friends like me sleep inside.
The courtyard garden doesn't have any grass so I always get a walk to tire me out. But there is a shady area at the side of the house that my 'hoomans' leave me when they go out, so I don't get too hot and I can feel safe.
And there's a special basket just for me. No way! What's in there? Ooh, ooh! a treat from PAWDINKUM. I LOVE THIS PLACE.

Nice spot

This was a nice property in a nice part of Portsea. Bit of a walk to the beach, but very quiet. The property had everything we needed.

Awsome time spent with family. Large house, well equipped, very clean. The heated pool was the highlight. A few basic repairs needed, otherwise, it was just perfect. Would definitely return.

Great home for a family getaway

We were so impressed with the entire process of booking the Portsea Hideaway. There was constant communication from Ocean Blue, upon arrival we were greeted with music playing, the air con on and wine chilling in the fridge. It was a lovely, comfortable, clean and spacious home. The pool was relaxing and the outdoor area was lovely.

Great place for a family getaway

Had a lovely time away with the family at Ocean Blue Coastal Retreat. The place was very clean and welcoming. A great set up inside and out. Can’t fault anything and hoping to get back again soon. Thanks for everything.

Ocean blue weekend stay

We had a wonderful time at Ocean Blue, the place was so clean and no dust at all. Very comfortable house to stay in , the kitchen and bathrooms were beautiful. Imthe nau. Problem was the heater was not efficient and perhaps not strong enough to warm the house .A maintenance man cane out pretty quickly though and helped direct the heat into the rooms we needed Overall we moved the place and were very comfortable Thanks very much

Beautiful house

Beautiful house, great area and a reasonable price. We enjoyed our stay at this property very much, had everything you need and plenty of space. Only issue was we went on a cold weekend, and the gas heated pool was very cold and hence couldn't really be utilized which is unfortunate as that's the reason we booked the house. But the rest of the house was great.
