About the home
“Island Beach Retreat” is a brand new one-bedroom home that is perfect for a couple or small family, located just 900m from the Hot Springs (opening 2026), 280m from Surf Beach, and just a short drive from the supermarkets, restaurants & cafés of Cowes. Some of the many features of these lovely homes are detailed below:
The Retreat
There are two dwellings on the block, just 5m from each other, connected by a Deck. The Original Beach Retreat is a mud brick 3-bedroom dwelling that has been completely renovated, extended and tastefully set up, providing premium accommodation. The second dwelling is the Island Beach Retreat - a brand new one-bedroom addition that is perfect for a couple or small family. There is a gate that can be closed off to provide two separate spaces (with their own access) or opened up to create one fantastic Retreat with some shared facilities (if the whole Hot Springs Retreat is booked).
Indoor Areas
The Living Room (with 50" smart TV and Panosonic sound system) also features a Kitchen and leads to the Bedroom and attached Bathroom (with shower & toilet).
Outdoor Areas
There is a gas BBQ on the covered Deck at the front of the home. The huge corner block, surrounded by native trees, has space for one car (parked next to the home, as per the photos). There are gates in the courtyard that can be locked, to separate the "Island Beach Retreat" from the Original Beach Retreat.
Kitchens
The kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils, crockery, cutlery, microwave, Nespresso pod coffee machine, toaster, kettle, etc. plus a sink, fridge, electric oven and stove.

Linen
It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.
