We had fantastic experience staying here. The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and well maintained. When we arrived we were greeted by a very helpful and knowledgeable member of staff at reception who pointed out good walking trails and some suggestions for where we might like to eat. We stayed in the Captain's Cottage (one of several chalet-like options at the property) and were welcomed with a selection of treats, including some adorable local chocolates. Breakfast was delicious and served in a well presented room with fascinating local details. Altogether, a really well-run hotel with great attention to detail. We'd definitely stay here again when next in the area.

Stayed here while travelling the Great Ocean Road. Second time we had stayed here. Hotel is located a street back from the beach. Nice large room, with private patio area to sit out. Two easy chairs in the room for relaxing. Small kitchen area with fridge and toaster. Complementary biscuits and chocolate provided. Good size bathroom with walk-in shower and large bath. In room safe would have been useful. Hot breakfast cooked to order. Order was taken as soon as we went into dining room before we sat down. Cold options also available, although we had to ask for fruit to be topped up. Ownership was due to change hands a couple of weeks after we stayed there. Several restaurants in easy walking distance.
