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.

Disliked: Staff & service
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.

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.
