Great location and good value for money.
The location and view are outstanding, The property is showing its age but the tariff reflects that, and is great value for the price paid. The owners are very friendly and go out of their way to make sure everything is fine for your stay. We are already repeat customers and will be sure to return.

Great value for the price.
Understandably slightly outdated but excellent views and position and cost made this motel and stay a very enjoyable holiday.will definitely stay here again.
I didn’t stay for even 1 night even tho I booked for 3 nights and it was non refundable. It had a weird vibe and the bed looked like it had an old worn out foam mattress. The curtains were stained and falling apart. So many spider webs in the window and the bathroom was falling apart and the shower was so dark with a ratty plastic shower curtain. I walked to Apollo Bay and found a room in town that was more convenient and comfortable. Left my keys in the return box and called it a lesson learned.
Place was out of the way
Had to get cobwebs dusted out of room. Spider webs everwhere
Smelled mouldy

Room is basic and a little old. Several cobwebs on the ceiling. Bathroom is clean. Proprietor very cheerful and efficient at check-in. Not great value.
Basic room with poor TV reception. Unfortunately, not enough water pressure to get wet in the shower. We didn’t require much but a shower was impossible. Would not stay again.
Friendly check in and check out. Comfortable bed and wonderful sea air
