Amaroo - Ocean views & close beach access

Located in Marengo, Amaroo is a two storey North facing house with great views over Marengo Beach to Apollo Bay township and rolling hills.

It's only a 500m walk to Marengo Beach for swimming, surfing, fishing or exploring rock pools.

The two story house has external entry to the 1st floor. Enter into the fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances, electric oven and cook-top, dishwasher and large fridge. A breakfast bar separates the kitchen with the dining area. The new dining setting is a great space for gathering together and discussing the days activities, and flows out on to the deck through sliding glass doors.

The lounge room has new leather lounge suites, TV, DVD, surround sound, and opens on to the North facing deck. A reverse cycle heater and air conditioner keeps this 1st floor comfortable, along with ceiling fans in the lounge, dining, and master bedroom.

The large sun drenched deck runs the entire width of the house. There is a Weber BBQ and 8 seated outdoor setting - perfect to sit out on the deck and enjoy the sunshine, ocean views, and hear the birds in the surrounding native trees.

The master bedroom is on the 1st floor as well, featuring a Queen size bed and access onto the North deck. The adjoining large bathroom has a bath and separate glass framed shower.

Downstairs is a second living area with TV, board games & books, two further bedrooms and the second bathroom. There is also a fully equipped laundry.

The yard is fully fenced, with a mix of lawn, gravel area and native garden. Parking is outdoor next to the house on gravel at the end of the tree lined driveway.

There is a walking and cycling path from Marengo to Apollo Bay township (2.5km), the Great Ocean Walk, and walks to the Marengo Reserve to explore in the area too.

Great location
We love staying in Marengo, and this house is walking distance to the beach. We loved feeding the daily bird visitors, koala watching, paddle boarding, swimming and walking on the beach. Perfect way to end the school holidays!

Spacious and clean
Lovely spacious property with lots of room for up to 8. We were just 2 and used only the top floor. Modern kitchen, well-equipped (although would have liked paper towels to be supplied) and lovely view from the upper level.

Views and relaxation
A beautiful house, with lovely views of the surf. The accomodation was spacious and set in a quiet spot among trees. Apollo Bay was a 25 minute walk away, with 2 supermarkets and a choice of great cafes, restaurants and takeaway places. The communication from the rental group was clear and welcoming.

Lovely spot, shame about the details
This was a beautiful property but we were disappointed to find it wasn't as clean as you might expect for a holiday rental. The carpets in the lounge room and bedroom were covered in dog hair and I found myself sneezing throughout the entire weekend as a result. It was also really surprising that there was no WiFi at the property, which is not something you expect in rental accommodation in 2021.

Disliked: Amenities
The property had a lovely view and was comfortable. However it lack all the little touches that makes good accommodation, GREAT. Simple things like oil, salt and pepper in the kitchen, a clothesline and wifi would have made our stay much more enjoyable. The expected cleaning upon departure was also a little excessive considering a clean fee is charged. To expect that no sand to be left behind at a beach house seems a tall ask. It was nice but I would not rave about it.
