Phillip Island Highlights, Koalas and Pelicans Tour (Morning)

Verandah Retreat is a luxury pet-friendly accommodation on Phillip Island, just 200 metres from the sea.

It is a boutique beach house in Cowes designed for slower stays – where mornings begin with coffee on the verandah, afternoons drift between beach walks and long lunches, and evenings gather around the wood fire.

Thoughtfully styled with linen bedding, private gardens and warm, layered interiors, the house offers a relaxed form of luxury for couples, families and guests travelling with dogs.

Walk to cafés, the foreshore and coastal paths, then return to a stay that feels quietly removed from everything. Close to the Penguin Parade, wineries and the island’s natural attractions, Verandah is a refined yet unhurried base for experiencing Phillip Island.

A slower rhythm, by the sea. Plan a slower stay at Verandah.
