9 Of The Best Airbnbs In Phillip Island For Your 2026 Vacay

If a true beach break floats your boat, SaltHouse is a modern spot worth a squiz. This Phillip Island Airbnb is set among the sand dunes and banksias of Surf Beach and so you’re actual footsteps from the sand (and you can bring the doggo too because this pad is pet-friendly for a small additional fee).

The house is designed into two pods connected by an enclosed hallway which is pretty cool. The first houses the open plan kitchen and living space and the second has two bedrooms and a separate bathroom with a sunken spa bath. Bliss.

If you’re in the market for something eclectic, artistic, and private, look no further than delightfully charasmatic The Rennison. The house is made of mud bricks and recycled timber and features a gorgeous vine-covered pergola for you to sit under with a book in hand.

Speaking of books, there’s basically an entire library at your disposal and a windowed wall in the main living area that gives you a stunning view of the forest-like garden. High wooden ceilings and white walls give a decidedly bohemian vibe, and you’re only a five-minute car ride to some of Victoria’s top beaches.

There's one sure way to level up your Phillip Island getaway game—and that's to book an Airbnb with the best water views. Phillip Island Waterfront House offers just that and more, as it has five windowed walls for your ocean-viewing pleasure. 

This place is perfect for a big group, as it sleeps up to 15, and it gets serious points for having a pool table, arcade machine (with over 1200 games), ping pong table, and darts board. If you're not challenging the crew to a match, we reckon a wander to the Surf Beach a mere 200 metres away might be in order. Right outside the house, you've got a nature reserve too.

Need a pet-friendly pad where the Fluffy One can chill but want something a little bit luxe at the same time? Poet’s Corner House gives you a whole heap of spaces within a short walk of Surf Beach, and the legends who own it allow up to two doggos at a time.

You’ve got two courtyards to explore at this Phillip Island Airbnb. Rustle up a steak dinner in the outdoor kitchenette, or whip up a creation in the pizza oven if you fancy. There’s a spacious outdoor dining area to munch it at, and a hammock to hide away on later in the day. When you and the dog are not living your best lives outside, we reckon you’ll be cosying up in the sunlit living space or heading up to the loft, where you can grab a book from the library or doze in front of the TV.

When you need a pad that's big enough for the whole crew, Lakehouse Estate is a brilliantly boujee option. This six-bedroom Airbnb has a garden that's as pretty as a Monet picture, with a private lake just adding to the lush factor.

Take a load off on the spacious outdoor deck and drink in that view, or if you're feeling energetic you can grab one of the complimentary kayaks and go for a paddle. There’s even a gym inside the house too, and a ping pong table for post-dinner games night.

With Lovers Walk Beach and Cowes within a leisurely toddle—and a stunning outdoor pool and heated spa to dip right into when you return—Island Escape sure ticks a lot of boxes.

Your Phillip Island Airbnb is wide and spacious, with an open plan kitchen, complete with breakfast bar for hanging out at while the nominated chef gets to work. Bliss out in one of the two living areas, or roll on out to the spacious backyard, where you'll find a barbecue to fire up, plus a dining table and chairs. After a weekend of eating, you might fancy taking to the patio where you'll find a treadmill and other gym stuff too.

Giving romance movie vibes with its soft lighting and cosy white-draped windows, Kilara Cottage is a warm and welcoming Airbnb that gives you access to the beach from the end of the street. It's family friendly, sleeping seven, with enticing sleeping nooks and bunk beds the littlies will love. Plus, it's pet friendly too, so there's no need to leave the doggo behind.

You're walking distance into Cowes from this top spot, and an easy drive to parks and the penguin parade. Back at base, check out the garden pathways, shady dining deck and outdoor pergola. It's a perfect spot to settle down with a good book, and a cheeky glass of wine.

If you're on a budget and don't mind sharing a bathroom, the Blue Room at Plovers Rest is absolutely worth a squiz. Your highly-rated stay sits in a charming 1900s cottage, a stone's throw from Cowes' northern beaches and a mere toddle from the town's main drag.

Inside, you'll find cosy wooden floors and coastal-inspired decor, plus there's a charming turn-of-the-century inspired kitchen for whipping up a snack. Your hosts can provide a fountain of knowledge about the area if you want to pick their brains, and they provide a complimentary light brekky which is an added bonus.

What was once a working woolshed is now a unique pet-friendly Airbnb for up to four guests on Phillip Island. The Wülshed is located on a ten-acre property close to Berry’s Beach, and stumbling distance from the dog-friendly Phillip Island Winery. (They even have a doggy menu in case your mate wants to dine with you.)

Expect timber from floor to ceiling in this rustic stay—there’s cosy cushions and rugs aplenty and even a grand piano for the musical among you to play. Outdoors, you’ll find a firepit for evenings spent under the stars and you can arrange to have optional wood fired hot tub access—just contact the owner in advance to ask.
