The Motel is clean, very comfy bed and the view is amazing, but they will need to clean up the trees around as they are hitting the building and the roof , we had a very strong winds on first night and we couldn't have much sleep due to the noise of branches hitting very hard the side wall of the building and the roof. Other then that is a great place to stay.

A somewhat older motel but very clean and comfortable with a lovely view of the ocean. Some mugs for tea and coffee would be welcome instead of the small cups and saucers provided.

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.

Would not and did not stay here!!!
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.
