Don't stay in Apartment 3. Tired and in need of an upgrade. Advertised as luxury but seriously not! It doesn't cost a lot to stock good cutlery etc, there weren't even tongs and some wine glasses would be nice as these are not things you generally travel with. The fact this had been written several times in your guest book... More

I stayed with some friends who came from the US back in November and I have to say, Whitecrest was everything we expected it to be! Beautiful location and we were very happy with the apartment we have "chosen" to stay in. It felt just like home and I was very proud to introduce my US friends to the wonders... More

When you're a couple it's often hard to find the kind of beach accommodation that feels like a house, private and value for money - Whitecrest is definitely that! The apartment was divine - modern, everything you could possibly need, brilliant views, spa, BBQ, private balcony and so close to the water you hear it roar as it hits the... More

Thanks for the great review Odilla. We're very pleased you got what you wanted and especially pleased you found the sandy beach. It's called Onion Bay and it's a bit of a local secret. It's not uncommon to have the beach all to yourself. We'll be making more of an effort to let our guests know about it. Great Room... More

After reading reviews, etc we booked this place for a weekend away, and were terribly disappointed. The location and set up the place was great, it was when we entered our room that the dissatisfaction set in. The furnishings were very tired, and the crockery and cutlery was dirty. I had to completely wash everything before using it, and even... More

We're so sorry you were disappointed missycitygirl. We really appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback. It is very valuable to us. The crockery and cutlery should not have been dirty and it comes as a surprise to us to read this. Our sincere apologies that you found it this way. We have brought this to the attention... More

The view and sound of the ocean from these apartments are fantastic. This was our 15-year old daughter's favourite part of our whole Great Ocean Road trip - waking to the sounds of the waves crashing. We stayed for 4 nights. Perfect place to unwind and relax. You can walk to the beach, but requires some walking along the road... More

Thanks MoBoSydney. We also love the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. It's always changing, as is the view. Walking access on that side of the property is a great idea. We'll bring it up with the owners. While the 15 minute drive along the Great Ocean Road to Apollo Bay is gorgeous you don't want to be... More

We're so glad that enjoyed our hospitality Sarah. Choosing an apartment with an ocean view is a good tip but we have to say that all our apartments have great ocean views. The building was designed with that in mind. Thanks for your review. More

I stayed in here with my boyfriend over the long weekend. We booked it very last minute and were really glad we did! Great value for money and great location. Its about 10-15 min drive from Apollo Bay but this was of no concern. We were in the second apartment from the end near the carpark. It had a loft... More

So sorry to hear about your broken toes Missdaksie. We hope they have healed well. The reception staff have changed since your stay. We think winter is the best time of year. Nothing is more cosy than sitting in front of a fire watching the weather outside after a relaxing spa. More

Whitecrest was amazing. I had organised a trip up the coast for the weekend (my partner had given birth three months ago to our daughter) so that we could clear our heads and get out of the city. The location is amazing- literally situated right on the coast with a view to die for from the apartments windows overlooking the... More

Although this place sounds good on the website, in reality it is not on the beach, it is across the road from the beach and the beach is actually made up of stones in this part and there is a road and thick brush in between. You would be better off staying further down or up on a real beach.... More

My partner and I spent a few nights here during the Winter in a 1 bedroom apartment. We had wanted a peaceful, relaxing place with a beautiful view in which to take some time away from our hectic city lives. In this regard, Whitecrest did not disappoint. Located about 10 minutes away from Apollo Bay by car, it was well-situated... More
