About this house rental
Welcome to the Dune Cottage , your perfect retreat in Venus Bay, VIC. This holiday rental has been designed to accommodate up to 8 guests in comfort and style, assuring a memorable experience for family and friends.
This spectacular abode unveils three beautifully kept bedrooms. Rest your head in the master suite that is a true oasis featuring a queen-size bed and impressive amenities. The second bedroom also accommodates a spacious queen bed, while the third bedroom comes with two bunk beds, making it a fun retreat for the little guests. Although there's just one bathroom, it's roomy, pristinely kept and ensures zero morning queues.
One of the highlights of Dune Cottage is the ample living space which includes a well-equipped modern kitchen perfect for those home-cooked meals; or kick back and relax in traditional Australian outdoor style on the alfresco dining set. You can also cozy up with a riveting book, play board games or enjoy a movie night with the kids in the inviting living room that features a large TV.
The parents haven't been forgotten; with stress-free, on-site parking for two cars, air conditioning for those hot summer days, and heating for cozy winter nights. Free from the hazards of stairs, this single-story house ensures suitability for children of all ages and provides a private entrance for unhampered accessibility.
What sets this property apart is its ideal location. Nestled in the tranquil beach town of Venus Bay, you are just a short stroll away from the area's famed sandy shores. From the property, enjoy the peaceful views of Venus Bay's natural beauty.
Rest assured, your visit to the Dune Cottage 82 will be both enjoyable and secure, with a smoke detector installed for peace of mind. The added bonus of a washer ensures you return home with a suitcase full of clean clothes, no matter how long your stay.
Your Perfect Coastal Escape in South Gippsland
Around 2 hours from Melbourne, Venus Bay is a peaceful coastal retreat surrounded by unspoiled beaches, scenic landscapes, and a warm, welcoming community. With five stunning beaches to choose from—including the popular Beach No. 1, patrolled by the Venus Bay Surf Lifesaving Club in summer—there’s no shortage of spots to swim, surf, or relax by the ocean. For boating and fishing, Anderson Inlet is just minutes away, offering calm waters perfect for kayaking or simply soaking in the views.
The local First Estate shopping strip has everything you need: a general store (with groceries, takeaway, coffee, and a bottle shop), The Cavity restaurant, a pizza shop, ice cream and fish and chips and two real estate offices.

Nearby towns like Tarwin Lower (6 mins), Inverloch (20 mins), and Wonthaggi (30 mins) and Leongatha (25 mins) can help with your shopping needs, other towns such as Foster (30 mins), Meeniyan (20 mins) and Fish Creek (15 mins) offer charming cafes, shops, and coastal sights. Around 45 minutes away, Wilsons Promontory National Park promises unforgettable hikes, beaches, and wildlife.
Don’t miss the spectacular Point Smythe Walking Track—a peaceful trail through coastal bushland with sweeping views of the Bass Strait and Wilsons Prom. It’s a haven for birdwatchers, nature lovers, and anyone looking to disconnect and breathe in the sea air.
Whether you're here for a quiet beachside break or an active outdoor adventure, Venus Bay is the ideal base to experience the best of South Gippsland. Discover why so many return year after year—Venus Bay is the coastal gem you didn’t know you needed.

Great location and lovely little house. All the amenities you could need and 2 bar fridges is a really great idea.

Great summer holidays spot in Venus Bay. Perfect for swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, biking etc Lots of little extras in the property.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2024
Had a great stay in Venus Bay, comfortable beds, bright house, quiet street, big backyard with trampoline and wombat visitor! Great to be a short bike ride to shops, didn't try beach track as easy to park at main beach, 4 min drive away, despite not having the best beachy weather had a really nice break.
6 / 10Average·Jan 2019
Clean, pleasant, well-stocked, central aircon.
If it had 2 bathrooms, it would be perfect for 2 families. Only one bathroom meant that there was always a queue.
Suggestions:
- Old-fashioned TV too difficult to operate. Really needs to be updated to a Smart TV with USB port and ability to accept video-casting from a mobile device.
- Insufficient clothes storage options - no cupboards, cabinets or over-door storage hooks.
- Gate into property too narrow. Need to be careful not to knock off your car side-mirrors.
- Dishwasher on premises, but not working.
