About this property

The Albatross - Port Campbell

The Albatross is a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom, double-storey timber beach house located in the heart of Port Campbell. Originally built in the 1980s, this distinctive home is characterized by its blue veranda poles. Formerly known as 'Pine View,' it was renamed 'The Albatross' in 2016 and has recently undergone a partial renovation. Updates include a fresh coat of paint, new flooring, window coverings, and other modern fittings.
Upstairs features an open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area with doors leading to the front ocean-facing deck. The kitchen, designed by German craftsmen and upgraded in the mid-2000s, includes an electric cooktop, wall oven, and double dish drawer.
The upper level also houses two bedrooms: one with sea views and a queen bed, and the other a garden view room with a private balcony and queen bed. On the ground floor, the entry level boasts a bright, open space with timber floorboards, a wood fire, and sliding glass doors that open onto a paved entertaining area, garden, and backyard. This level includes two additional bedrooms—a mini apartment with a queen-size bed, its own living area, TV, and access to the downstairs bathroom, which features a separate shower and toilet.
While staying at The Albatross, you can enjoy a scenic drive along the Great Ocean Road, taking in breathtaking views and numerous lookout points. Explore the iconic Twelve Apostles, renowned for its dramatic limestone stacks and stunning ocean vistas. Discover the diverse landscapes of Port Campbell National Park with its hiking trails suitable for all levels. Visit Loch Ard Gorge to see historic shipwreck sites and striking rock formations. Spend leisurely days relaxing on nearby beaches, perfect for swimming and picnicking, or engage in fishing, kayaking, and surfing in Port Campbell Bay.
Whether you’re looking to explore natural wonders, enjoy outdoor activities, or simply unwind, Port Campbell offers something for everyone.

Lovely spot
AWe had a fantastic time! Beautiful house comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen. Every bit was just right. Would stay again gladly. Only thing that could make it better was if the front gate could close. So the dog could go off lead, but that was not a huge deal.

Great Location for Exploring Port Campbell and the Great Ocean Road
We were so happy we chose this vacation rental. It is walkable to cute restaurants in Port Campbell and to the grocery store. It's at a perfect spot to drive to the 12 Apostles and to avoid the crowds of the late afternoon. The home was spacious, clean, quiet and well maintained. We were very pleased with our choice and would happily stay again.
