PROS Lovely staff, friendly and full of local knowledge. Perfectly clean and tidy, well presented comfortable rooms with everything required, big comfy bed with plenty of pillows, tidy kitchen and amenities Location is a stones throw from Rye pier just off the main road with a choice of eateries on the block. Swimming pool clean. Everything tidy and accessible Great place to stay CON Slightly pricey. Would stay again at around 2/3 the price. Granted it was high season but felt it could have been priced a bit lower for size / amentities / inclusions.

Amazing location and nicest staff!”
We booked this apartment last August. The staff is the nicest person ever and very considerate. We came too early for check-in, but he still accommodated us and were able to get into our room earlier than schedule. And so we're able to go to Peninsula Hot Springs early. The location is also convenient and surroundings is nice and chill.

Great location, nice apartment.”
Brett, probably Moonlight’s Bay owner, was extremely helpful, taking time to show us some interesting places to go around Mornington through a map. We were made to feel at home. Thanks Brett.

2 minute walk to the beach”
The location of this place is really great. Super close to the shops, restaurants and to Rye Pier. We enjoyed our stay even it was cut short with the Covid lockdown. We also brought our toddler with us and the apartment was baby safe.

Short getaway”
We arrived right before check-in and was upgraded to a deluxe room with a spa! The room was newly refurbished, very clean, extremely cosy and comfortable. The location was spot on with only 1 minute walk to the beach and shops. We will definitely be back the next time we visit Rye.

Good service ”
My stay at Moonlight Bay was good. The staff did his best as he could not find my booking. Instead of an apartment with 2 rooms that I've booked which he could not find, he offered me 2 rooms with the same price that I've paid.

Friendly staff”
Staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel was 1.5 hrs drive from Melbourne city and is close to the Peninsula hot spring (around 10-15 minutes drive), so it is highly recommended for travellers who will be visiting the hot spring.

Parking, heated pool, clean room”
The 1 bed apartment was quite small but not tiny. The room was clean and staff friendly. Their is a separate toilet which was good. The bed was comfy and the heating worked well. Video shop is right across the road if it's raining! The pool was heated and well kept. Close to Rosebud which has more shops and restaurants.
