Where to start on this amazing place?!?!? We stayed in the Captain's Cottage which was cozy, romantic topped with a lovely gas open fire just to add to the coziness of this wonderful room :) Lovely service from the staff, delicious breakfast which is included in your stay, and it's only 100-150m to the water where you have a range...

As per all my reviews if WiFi is a chargable service then the rating reflects this, and in this case WiFi is chargable. The Hotel very pleasant and clean, all facilities, aimed at the tourers, one or two night stays. Rooms were a good size, certainly not cramped and were clean. The breakfasts were good with a choice of cerials... More

Our trip was just for the Great Ocean Road drive and this was our stopover stay. Our travel agent in Germany recommended it--and we know why. We got the large room on the south side with a large garden terrace. If the weather had been nicer, we'd have used this a few more hours, but our drive was off season,... More

The room was nice, clean and modern - everything to be expected. We had a comfortable stay. They have a few harsh rules, such as if you check out after 10am there will be a $70 per hour charge. The complimentary breakfast goes from 8-9am so if you are not an early riser you pretty much miss the boat. Our... More

Thanks for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. But only if you told us the right room when you rang about your hair dryer. You said you were in Captains Cottage, when in fact it was the Cottage. We always carry spare Electrical equipment. Happy Travelling. Wayne More

This was a wonderful place to stay - our room overlooked the Bay, our beds were very comfortable, we were made very welcome, the place was clean and well equipped, staff and owner friendly and kind. The included breakfast was a delight - hot food served quickly; the table was full (and continually refilled) with cold juices, tea, coffee etc... More

We were very happy to be at this hotel. It was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was really good and plentiful. There was also a cheap laundry on site (which we needed since we were on a long vacation and were running out of clean clothes). We would recommend this place very highly. More
