The Neighborhood:
Ocean Grove is a popular beach destination on the southern side of the Bellarine Peninsula. The coastal town attracts many visitors during the summer months due to its scenic beaches and pristine waters.
One of the notable beaches near this listing is Collendina, a secluded stretch located just 1.6km away. It's perfect for surfing or fishing, but swimming might not be suitable for younger children, depending on the conditions.
If you're looking for a family-friendly beach option, you should head to Ocean Grove Main Beach, the primary beach in the town. Not only does it offer breathtaking ocean views, but it's also a safe swimming spot, thanks to the surf patrol. This popular spot is perfect for families and offers numerous walking trails. You'll be happy to know that there's also free parking available.
This property is conveniently located near the Ocean Grove Marketplace on Shell Road, where you'll find Woolworths, BWS, and restaurants for takeaway.
If you travel approximately 2.5km towards the centre of town, you will come across 'The Terrace', the main street in Ocean Grove. The area has several popular cafes, including The Olive Pit, Driftwood and Kyosk Cafe. The Terrace is ideal for enjoying a meal at Blackman's Brewery, Chang Noi Thai, or the OG Bar. Alternatively, you can grab a takeaway feed from Ocean Grove Pizza & Pasta, Ocean View Fish & Chips and Ice Creamery, and enjoy the beautiful beachside sunset.
Getting Around:

Other Things to Note:
**Security Deposits**
We place a temporary AUD 500 authorisation hold on your credit or debit card from two days prior to check-in. This is not a charge; it simply ensures funds are available if needed. The hold is released within 3-7 days of check-out, provided the property is in good condition. A small bank processing fee (typically around AUD 2) may apply. Banks require us to renew the authorisation hold weekly. Security deposits may vary for more extensive listings. Please check the specific listing details for any variations.
**Damage Waiver (Optional)**
For some bookings, you may have the option of a non-refundable damage waiver instead of the security deposit. This is a smaller percentage of the security deposit amount. You can choose either the security deposit or the damage waiver during the booking process, depending on availability. The damage waiver covers limited accidental damage to the property or its contents, such as broken dishes or minor spills. The damage waiver does not cover intentional damage, theft, or loss of property.
Please see our Rental Policy for more information regarding our damage protection policies.
