Nobody was inside the homes at the time, but passengers did have to be freed from the wreckage.
Ambulance Victoria said two people were transferred to Frankston Hospital but it is unclear what conditions they were taken in.
Other people have been assessed by paramedics at the scene.
Sharon, whose 17-year-old son was on board the bus, said the teenager lost some of his teeth during the collision.
‘The bus was heading down towards Dromana Parade towards Portsea and a truck has come out of a side road and T-boned the bus and slammed the bus. The bus has then gone into two houses,’ she told 3AW.
Sharon said another person at the scene said the driver had been taken to hospital.
