Very disappointing

Very disappointing for the price. We paid for a sea view and were given a room with a partial seaview and the stairwell. The place is really tired and the carpet is not clean. Only one pillow was supplied. You are supposed the wash up all your plates etc but you need to use the bathroom sink and the cloth provided was dirty. Port Campbell is a building site as the whole of the high street under renovation. I am sure will be lovely once done but not at the moment.

A fantastic location. The room was spacious and comfortable. If you left the window open you could hear the waves gently lapping. The receptionist was delightful. A lovely place to stay.

very good view with the sea, right in front of a small bay, suitable for swimming. We had 3 people, however, the room is small, and only supplies one mini shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and milk, even we asked for extra, just add one milk. The water from shower head dispersive and the shower head is immovable. There are no parking lines in the yard.

Best spot in town

Great location and friendly staff. Sept with the windows open in a quiet neighborhood after band (weekends only) wrapped up. Useful laundry machines (bring your own soap) and great parking in front of your door

This perfectly located motel has views of Port Campbell inlet from all rooms and is directly across the road from this beautiful swimming beach, jetty and grassed areas. Accomodation provides comfortable bed, simple clean bathroom and tea/ coffee facilities. That is all you need as this picturesque location is for outside swimming, hiking and short drives to the viewing highlights of The Great Ocean Road. Short stroll to excellent dining options.
