February is one of our favourite months on Phillip Island! The weather is near perfect, no battle for parking at close to empty beaches and plenty of fun to be had at local attractions.

Relax on our sun soaked decks, head to the beach and check out some of our recommendations for Feb fun!

*Churchill Island summer sessions- every Sunday in Feb, explore the island or chill out and listen to some superb local tunes.
*World superbikes - Feb 20th-22nd. Action packed weekend at The Phillip Island Circuit. A very convenient short walk from us!
*Cruise the bay with Wildlife Coast Cruises, so many options! Wildlife experiences through to sunset cruises with live music. Book your stay with us and receive your exclusive discount code.

Gotta love the Island!

Meet the team! Well, half of us anyway...husband MIA, camera shy shall we say...

Hi 👋
I'm Savanna and this is my bestie Charlie. I am owner, director, designer, planner, gardener, bookings coordinator....you get the picture. And I love it!
We created The Gap Retreat to be a place of comfort and style in a bushland setting where our guests could make themselves at home. Every element has been created to offer not just a place to stay but a memorable experience. We are long term locals, myself in particular, born and bred, a true Phillip Islander! And with that comes a great knowledge of the area and what it has to offer.
We love to assist our guests to create a true local experience, so ask us, where to go, what to do, where to eat, drink and explore.
We look forward to welcoming you. ♥️

Plenty of chill out zones at The Gap Retreat! We're all about escape and relaxation. Will it be the morning sun on the north facing decks? A picnic rug on the lawn with a book in hand? A wine with friends at the bar or a family bbq in our communal bbq space? The options are endless. Come stay and make it your own.
