Good host and the kind of breakfast I like. Close to the shore and walking distance to Cowes. Quiet area. In summer they accept a 1 night stay. Advertised as Air Conditioned - it isn't! - the other 3 rooms are. The cheapest room is smallish in size and lack of air con brings down the standard of the site.... More

Stayed here for one night at the beginning of January. Sue was very friendly and showed where everything was in my room (I stayed in the Lilly Pilly room). Some of the other reviews seem to make reference to the decor, but I thought it was appropriate and fitting for the accommodation; it is supposed to be a cosy and... More

We felt like we were staying in our Great Aunt Tillie's dusty guest bedroom. Old mismatched furniture, itsy bitsy shower stall. Breakfast was ok, with no meat or eggs unlike most B&B's we've stayed in. And make sure you get out of your room by check-out time or the cleaning lady will come in while you're still eating breakfast!

This was a very nice B&B. Sue was friendly and helpful and served a good breakfast. We had the Sunflower room which was not much bigger than the bed it contained. Storage for suitcases was on a rack over the bath, provided for that purpose. Consider one of the more expensive rooms if you want more space.

We stayed for one night in the Lily Pily room and it was lovely. Susan was an excellent and welcoming host. The room fulfilled our every need and even had a little bottle of complimentary port and chocolate. The bed was comfortable and clean. The continental breakfast was delicious and Susan made sure we had more than enough food. It... More

Since staying here the bar has been set incredibly high when looking for a B&B!! You can't go wrong staying here. Sue was simply wonderful - so warm, helpful and friendly. Whilst we stayed in the smallest room it had everything we could possibly want and we were very comfortable. Beautiful house & gardens, fantastic service & value for money... More

What a lovely B&B! Such value for money! First of all, the house and its gardens are beautiful!! You can tell a lot of love and care goes into this property. We stayed for one night, so we could explore Phillip Island! It was an ideal location for all the attractions on the Island. We were greeted on the Saturday... More

Thankyou for making our Saturday night stopover so warm and fiendly. My wife Sue and I decided on Saturday afternoon to go away for a romantic night. We were delighted that other establishments recommended you to us and thus we found out about you. To anyone reading this review, Genesta House is a gorgeous guest house with a lovely garden... More

Genesta B&B was a most enjoyable experience. It is in a very convenient location set in a delightful garden with lots of lovely quiet spots to sit, meditate, read or talk. Sue the owner/manager was most helpful, friendly and fun. The contentinal breakfast was a delicious spread of juices, fruits, cerials, yoget, yummy freshly cooked crapes, various breads and an... More
