Beach house escape, pet friendly, close to beach, suits two families or couples

Bacchus Beach House Escape is a spacious, pet friendly, two storey beach home in Dunsborough, with views of the bay from the upstairs balcony and living area.

Our property is a 5-min walk to the local swimming beach and coffee van or enjoy a pleasant stroll along the foreshore to the town centre with cafes, wine bars, restaurants, and other amenities.

The house has 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (with separate toilets), two living areas, a balcony upstairs, and a deck area downstairs. This is an ideal property for large groups (9 adults) or two families (10 max with children).

Property provides ideal comfort for summer with air-conditioning units both upstairs and downstairs, a wood fire upstairs for winter (note: you need to bring your own fire starters and timber).

Back garden is accessible from downstairs living area and provides an uncover furnished deck with BBQ. The garden is fully enclosed, making it a safe area for children and pets.

Balcony is accessible from upstairs living/kitchen area and is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the view. External stairs provide easy access from the balcony to the garden areas. A gate across the top of balcony stairs secures access to the balcony area. Front yard offers undercover parking for cars and room to park a boat.

Convenient proximity to Dunsborough Bay boat ramp. It is a fantastic location to stay while you enjoy the local beach environment or explore the region’s internationally renowned wineries, boutique breweries, and the stunning coastline.

The location provides convenient access to walking and bike trails that lead to Castle Rock and Bunker Bay. A total of 4 parking bays are available. Undercover parking is available in the two separate single bay carports. Two more parking bays are available on the driveway area in front of the house.

Early check-in / late check-out available on request.

Linen fees include bed linen, bath towels, kitchen tea towels, and bed preparation. Please BYO beach towels, personnel toiletries, extra toilet paper, etc. as only a starter pack is provided.

Arrivals/Departures on a Saturday, Sunday, or public holiday may attract an additional service fee.

Great place for a short stopover
The house was ideal for five of us, as it had 5 separate bedrooms, and the large kitchen was great. The highlight was sitting out on the balcony watching the birds in the morning and looking out to the ocean. Magic :)

Great quick getaway with friends
My husband and I and 5 of our friends and our dogs stayed recently for two nights. It was ideal for three couple and two singles: plenty of space, great location close to the water and Dunsborough town, awesome upstairs entertaining area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hopefully will be back.

Girls Trip
Bacchus was perfect for our girl's trip, loved our stay here. The house is spacious (we all had our own room) and in a good location. The kitchen was well equipped and had plenty of utensils/crockery/glasses so no need to keep washing dishes! Was lovely to sit out on the deck upstairs for an afternoon drink! Would like to suggest mirrors in the bedrooms and also tissues provided and maybe a starter pack of kindling & firewood. We did buy the firewood as suggested but I think this could have been provided given the cost per night. The host, Rosa, responded to my emails very promptly. Would definitely book this place again.

We had a great time walking to the beach and cooking big meals to eat on the veranda while the kids watched cartoons on the comfy couch. Not a ton of frills but truly everything we needed for a family Beach getaway!

Great location with a lovely view
Great stay for couples or family with teenage children, but not recommended for families with toddlers or older family members due to staircase. There is no handrail for the stairs and no toddler gate at either the top or bottom of the staircase which was a major issue during our stay with two toddlers aged 2 and 3 given the living area is upstairs. Kitchen is very well equipped for people that want to cook up a storm and entertain. Overall good but not for young families.
