It has been the best experience of my life!✨ I wanted to give my boyfriend a stay at this place for two nights, and he loved it! Many thanks to Ian & Rob for their kindness every single second we were there. We feel at home from the first moment. Everything is spectacular! The facilities, the place, the view, the breakfast, the suite room, everything!💯👌🏼
I really appreciate it when people make you feel good, safe, welcome, and treat you better than any other visitor. This is how you feel there. Ian and Rob are wonderful, kind, respectful, and lovely. And what about Mickey! Their cute

Beautiful location, unique features, magnificent beach views. Outstanding service. Thank you Rob and Ian. We will be back. One of the best places we have stayed at ever. We enjoyed the stunning common areas and
extras like a cinema room (complete with popcorn and icecream). Great breakfast offered too. Thanks for a relaxing break and your hospitality. Helen and Eamonn

Starhaven was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. Rob and Ian are delightful hosts who take pride in making every guests stay as memorable as possible with every interaction. We stayed in the Haven Suite and would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking to make the most of their stay (the bath and in-room sauna/spa make the getaway extra special). There is no shortage of things to do in the Indented Head/Portarlington/Bellarine area, but if you're in the mood for staying in be sure to take advantage of Starhavens sauna, spa, cinema, rooftop views, billiards room or bar

Ian, Rob and Mickey…where do we even start. From the moment we pulled up out the front of Starhaven we felt immediately relaxed. Once we stepped inside this stunning home I knew it more than just a Grand Design. It is a home purpose built with generosity, consideration and love. Jason and I have been so blessed to spend a week being entertained, pampered and waited on with such genuine love and care it’s has truly felt like visiting with dear friends or family. There is nothing this stunning home does not have to offer from generous home made breakfast, high quality fixtures and fittings, deluxe

We had an amazing stay in the Haven Suite. Robert, Ian and Mickey made us feel right at home.
This stay made us remember what a true bed and breakfast is.
The little extras like the private cinema with popcorn and ice cream, the incredible spa and the views across the bay just made it even more special. P

My Husband and I recently stayed two nights at Starhaven Retreat on our honeymoon. It is such a gorgeous place, in a beautiful, relaxing location. Rob and Ian are lovely and welcoming, and can't do enough to help. There is so much to do, you could never be bored! And it's great that they offer apple tv and netflix in the rooms, when most other accommodation still only offer free to air/on demand pay movies. The beautiful daily breakfast with great conversation is a real highlight!

From the moment we arrived, both hosts Ian and Rob made us feel so welcome! My husband George and I, had the whole first floor to ourselves, which included a spacious bedroom and bathroom to suit a King and a Queen, a beautiful lounge room with a fire place, billiard table that kept us entertained at nights, and a spa outside on the balcony. We had the experience to watch a movie in the theatre room gold class style with popcorn, ice cream and drinks provided. Breakfast was delicious and we both loved how Ian and Rob interacted with us and the other guests, it made us feel very welcome and at ease
