We had a lovely weekend staying at your property, enjoyed the firepit on the cool evenings. The beds were comfortableand there was enough space and plenty of toys and games to entertain the children. They did have fun with the karaoke machine. The location suited us well as you can easily walk down to the beach in 5-10 minutes and it is close to the cafes and restaurants.

Short break

Lovely property, would definately stay again. Great view from the back deck and great backyard. Loved having a carport to drive into. Situated in a good spot, 20 minute walk from main street of Cowes and easy walk to beach. Aaron was very friendly and easy to deal with. Only downside for us all was the beds were a bit firm in all rooms.

Summer Family Memories

We were all very comfortable at Twin Beaches Resort. The house was clean and stocked with a number of extras. I have only given 4 to location and neighbourhood as the house is on a busy thoroughfare for both road traffic and late night time revellers. Thoroughly recommend this property.

Best Family Weekend!

From the moment we booked to the moment we left we loved everything about this home. Aaron is an incredible host, very accommodating and the tiny details (dog bed, bowl, colouring books, firewood all inc.) just made it such a great stay. We had 13 family members stay here for our mums 80th bday with no worries. Plenty of room and seperate spaces. The fire pit was awesome! Absolutely want to come back. Highly recommend!
