We stayed in a fully self contained motel room for 3 nights in May 2013. Rooms are basic (a little tired) though more than adequate. The view is fantastic and it is so nice to pull back the curtains and soak up the view from your bed. The kitchen is well organised and very clean. I would definitely stay here... More

Accomodation with best ocean views. Clean, comfortable 3.5 star standard with clean white linen and comfortable bed. Welcoming us was the gas log fire on, cosy and warm. Views seem like you are right on beach, listening to waves rolling in and private patio to sit, gaze out at the ocean and relax. Had lovely dinner at apollo bay hotel.... More

We were travelling the GOR & we hadn't booked anywhere in advance. I had seen this place on the internet & there were some odd reviews & mentions about the place been up for sale. Don't let any of that put you off, we booked a beach room which was dated but very comfortable, but the best part is the... More

Place is aging/slightly dated but still very usable. We had rooms up the hill which provided a killer view. Steep gravel road up the hill. Think it's also up for sale or it was when we were there. Great potential for someone with the money to modernise it. Value for money considering other accommodation in the area. No issues with... More

We were in Australia for 2 weeks for our Honeymoon and decided to take a 3 day extended road trip and drive the Great Ocean Road. (From Adelaide to Melbourne) When we got to this place, we both literally looked at each other in panic. We totally blame our travel agent, but this place was unacceptable. Our door had spider...

We only stayed here for one night. It was a great place to break up the Great Ocean Road journey. The whole place does look slightly tired and when we were there you could see signs for it being up for auction later this month, so the owners clearly are not putting their all into it. It obviously has a... More

Amazing ocean view, worth the visit for this reason along. Service is pretty poor, not overly friendly and welcoming. You have to clean your own dishes and room, also strip bedding on departure! Over priced in terms of what's required from visitors, however ocean views definitely make up for this, truly breath taking, amazing way to fall asleep and wake... More

The bed was comfortable, bathroom and kitchen facilities were excellent with a BBQ area adjacent. A thoroughly enjoyable two days. We did enjoy feeding the alpaca and sheep, and fishing in the dam. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
