Our Keely Shae Stay

My partner, dog and myself came for a 2 night stay at Port Fairy and we booked with Darren and Narelle at Keely Shae because of the amazing reviews and also as the property is dog friendly. We were impressed by the swift and helpful replies to my questions prior to arriving and again by the house itself when we arrived. Supercute, convenient and clean, with the comfiest bed and pillows! Such good sleeps! Doggo had a great time too . Our only disappointment was that we couldnt leave our doggo in the yard by himself as the fence was too low to be sure he wouldnt escape. So unfortunately there were several places we couldnt visit, which dont allow dogs. I understand that higher fences are in the process of being built though, so when we come back, which we must, this wont be an issue and every box for us will be ticked! Will definitely be hoping to book keely shae for out next port fairy stay. Thanks for everything, Darren and Narelle xx

Relaxing and clean

We enjoyed our stay verymuch. I always get nervous about staying in places where pets can go as my daughter has allergies but there was no sign of animal in the home and felt very clean and homely. Location was great and 11am check out! Look forward to staying again.

Great little cottage in central location

A very comfy cottage with a well equipped kitchen. Close to the Bank Street restaurants and shops. Easy to lock up the yard so the dog could enjoy his stay too.

Dog friendly property to suit our family

This property is ideal do those wanting to take their pets to a beach holiday. The floors are already to vacuum away the shedded fur and the beach walks are great for the dogs and family. The flat walk to town is an easy stroll and the many cafes are ideal for a pleasant stop even in a Covid environment. The holiday house has everything you need and lovely linen and all facilities are there for you. We loved our stay and so did our dog!!

Spacious dog friendly property

The house was larger than I was expecting and it had lovely areas to sit outside, especially the front verandah, where you can watch the world go by. We were a group of five adults and the large table worked well for communal meals, while the large bedrooms provided a retreat for reading and napping. The house is located halfway between Eastern Beach and South Beach and we enjoyed a variety of walks with the dog through town and along the beaches before the 9am and after 5pm. Overall, this is clean and homey place that's very close to the shops.

Great house that is very well set up. It had everything we needed plus more. The beds were comfortable and the lounge and dining area provided plenty of space to lounge about or to spread the newspaper across the dining table. Excellent service and good communication with the owners Darren and Narelle. Great value for money.

Clean, well appointed house in good location.

Great property for our dogs with a secure large yard. Girls enjoyed the video selection and I found the large bed very comfortable. The walk into town was lovely down the back streets past beautiful period houses. Some instructions on how to use things such as the fireplace could be helpful. But hosts quickly answered any questions and tended to our needs.
