Thank you very much for your feedback. As mentioned you can't get a better location than Villa Neptune which is right on the tranquil shores of Geographe Bay. Also, the bay outside our villas is shallow and does not get affected by the stingers which makes it perfect for people of all ages. We have had a few unusual hot... More

“WOW!! I want to live here!”

First of all, the location is just amazing. You come out of your door, walk down the pathway and you're at the most gorgeous beach! crystal clear waters, no waves, knee height for half a km or so. Perfect for families with bubs! We stayed in the 2 bed, 2 bath villa (Pioneer) and we were VERY impressed. spacious, clean,... More

Thank you for the fantastic review and your suggestions for improvements. We are not able to put in ducted air conditioning as we have no ceiling cavities but we will investigate alternative cooling options for the odd occasions when we have a heatwave. We are fortunate down here in Dunsborough that we don't experience heat waves too often. The noise... More

“Second visit even better”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Just back from a wonderful holiday staying at Whaler's Cove in Dunsborough. Lovely accommodation, beautiful gardens and surrounds and such a convenient location. Whaler's Cove just has that lovely feel about it.

Thank you for the great review. It is very pleasing when we have guests return for a 2nd time to find the complex even better than the previous visit. The ambiance of Whalers Cove is the first thing that our guests notice with the free standing villas all offset and this along with the established gardens makes Whalers Cove Villas... More

Had a super trip to Whalers Cove in August 2011. Stayed in Villa Hibernia. It was beautiful, rustic but modern and all necessary amenities. Although it was August cool and rainy weather we were kept warm by the the log fire which added character. All the apartments looked to be well kept with immaculate gardens. We were thrilled and would... More

Thank you very much for such a positive review. With the weather currently reaching close to 40 degrees celsius, the location of our villas right on the beachfront is a great way to cool down. The shallow waters of Geographe Bay are also very safe for young children and the grassed area at the front of Whalers Cove Villas provide... More

Our second time at Whalers Cove (first three years ago) and it was better than ever. Amazing place to stay (Villa Hibernia) just seconds from the beach. Quiet yet very social.

Thanks for the great review and it is always a positive reflection for us when we have repeat visitors - especially from overseas! The tip to go to our website and click under villas so that you can then view each villa is really important. All of our villas are individually appointed and as such there is a wide choice... More

We stayed here with our two small children and we were very underwhelmed. As all the reviews on here are so glowing, we expected more. We found that the owners were not very welcoming and when we had problems putting up the baby cot, they were extremely unconcerned and unhelpful. Apparently they are not allowed to help us in case...

It is always disappointing to receive a negative review and as the managers we accept all feedback, both positive and negative. We have inspected all of the portacots that are hired out to ensure they are in good condition for future guests. To continue to provide excellent quality accommodation for our future guests we always ask our guests upon departure... More
