A hidden gem
We loved our stay at Woodlands Retreat. This villa has everything you need for a wonderful getaway. A well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, heating/air conditioning, a great aspect from every room and creative decor. It was an easy drive to the beach or you can opt to walk if you're energetic. Helen was great to deal with and responded promptly to our queries. We would love to return, perhaps for a little longer next time.

Best of both beach & bush stay
Lovely & peaceful pet friendly holiday stay. Woodlands retreat has nearly everything you need for a get away. While you do need to drive to the beach you have many choices, Ocean Grove, Pt Lonsdale, Queenscliff were the ones we spent our time. We highly recommend Woodlands Retreat.
