Really enjoyed our 2 night stay at this property. House is neat and clean, close to the beach, lovely views looking out to the Otway ranges, and comfortable beds. Great for a family and lovely to be able to take our dog along.

Great place to stay in Apollo Bay.
Our family had a comfortable and relaxing stay in this accommodation. Enough space for 5 adults, infant and pet. We didn’t need a cot for our stay. Location was central and walkable to the town centre. Owner replied in a timely manner with regards to our queries. We would be happy to stay again in the future.

Great Location, Housekeeping Improvements Needed.
The house had a great location. The beds and pillows were comfortable, which is very important to me. However, there were some issues with housekeeping. Some of the kitchen plates and serving dishes had chipped edges. The quality of the pots was not good—not even average, in my opinion. They didn’t provide an unused dishcloth; I didn’t want to use the sponge or cloth left behind by others. There was no dishwasher. We couldn’t use the washing machine because it was broken—it wouldn’t drain water. The sheets and bathroom were clean, but the house hadn’t been properly vacuumed; there were pieces of dry dog food left on the floor from previous guests. Honestly, the location of the house is fantastic, the house has much more potential. With better housekeeping, it could be a very good place to stay.
