Portside Motel

Great little affordable, clean, and nicely set up room in Port Campbell that is worth the extra…read morecouple of blocks. We had the end unit which was nice and a cute little patio and the off season prices and customer service could not be beat! 4 instead of 5 stars because the jets on the big beautiful tub we were told right off the bat was broken, so we weren't able to enjoy that :( Nice to have free DVDs to borrow from the front desk as well as we got quite a rainy/windy day while we were there!! Also appreciate being able to leave our stuff at the reception desk since our bus came 5 hours after the required checkout time. Great little place we'd recommend for visitors to Port Campbell!

Twelve Apostles Motel
I really liked this place! I found it to be quite cozy and cute. The stars at night were just…read moremagical; I don't know where else I've ever seen such a clear view of the Milky Way. The location was very convenient for seeing the fraudulently-named 12 Apostles, especially if you want to be there at dawn. The cabin was chilly, as the entire continent of Australia and every establishment in it seem to be right now. But the heaters in the bedrooms and the heating pads on the beds worked great and that just made everything cozier. There was plenty of hot water. I thought it might run out, but it never did! The towels were clean and didn't have that mildewy smell that I'd been starting to think was endemic in this hemisphere. Could everything have been a bit newer and less worn down? Sure, but it seems like everything is always just a little bit shabbier than you expect when you're traveling, especially after COVID. It was clean and quiet, and the location was great, and that's what matters most. Be careful on the road in and out. It tends to be overrun with kangaroos at dawn and dusk. They are easily startled, and their preferred method of escape is to dive directly under your front tires.

Daysy Hill Country Cottages
Very nice property and an interesting choice of accommodation compared to the small hotels in…read morenearby towns. Short drive into town for dinner. My expectation was maybe more of a farm, but it's definitely accommodation-first with a few animals & fields. Very friendly folks. We stayed in one of the two-bedroom cabins, which are the budget option compared to the nicer, much more expensive cottages. Everything about its finish was functional but plain which was fine; the only bothersome attribute was paper-thin interior walls. Like, you could whisper in one room and hear it in the next.
Pebble Point
We booked a night's stay online and told them that we were coming at 11pm. They replied promptly…read morethat 11pm was a little late and we could possibly have some trouble finding the place. We came at 11pm anyway. You check in by entering a keycode which they email you, and unlock your tent and bathroom. The tent bedroom and bathroom are apart, about 2 metres, and the walkaway is unsheltered. The bathroom has a glass wall facing a grass valley, and the view is good in the day. Towels and toiletries are provided here. The tent was freezing in March and we didn't use the electric blankets initially, then later did. I cannot imagine coming here in the dead of winter where the temperature is in the low single digits. I suggest you come here in summer/autumn/spring. There is a kettle and tea/coffee provided, but you have to bring your own food.
Sea Foam Villas
We stayed there for three nights. The place was clean but not everything was in working condition…read more I reported the screen door at the balcony off of the track minutes after checking-in and it was never fixed. Parking was designated-parking but the parking area is extremely tide and is very hard to go in&out. Upon check-in for three nights the lady at the desk gave us a small container of milk and said "this should last you for the entire stay" which I thought it was extremely rude given that size is for two servings only. The place has a great location but only 6 rooms have ocean view. The rest are all looking at the parking area and each other's balconies. The staff and the maintenance lack a lot for me to recommend this place with a clear conscience. Just a fair warning. I will not stay here again.

It's a budget motel, fairly decent price for a very touristy area, however it was not inexpensive…read moregiven the quality. The bathrooms definitely needed updating. It's very close to the beach and walk to town for restaurants, etc. The fan in our bathroom (room 4) was so noisy it sounded like it was falling apart. It was hard to have the fan (which was combined with the light) on because it was so loud. We did have a microwave, a kettle for boiling water for making coffee or tea, a toaster and two sets of plates and silverware as well as wine glasses and coffee mugs. There was no corkscrew in the room. Might return in one of the new little cabins they are building on the property. They look great.
This Hotel/Motel is very very old! It has had an update since being built, but I would say that the…read morerenovations were done in the 1990s. The room we stayed in wasn't what we were expecting after paying $300 a night for it. The room was mega small. It had a double bed in it, after being led to believe that the room we had booked & paid for already would have a Queen bed. The bed was made without a donna cover on the donna. The mini fridge would freeze anything we put in it. The shower was dirty. There was missing paint chips all over. The tv had 3 channels; abc kids; abc news; and sbs. Even with being connected to the wi-fi the internet coverage was in and out. Don't expect a house-keeping visit whilst you are there. They only come to 'clean' the room on your departure. We had to ask for clean, dry towels for the second night - as the towels are only small and are of very poor quality. The word that comes to mind when thinking of this Hotel/Motel is tacky. Even down to the lamps on the bedside tables - not even matching, looking as if they were from the 1980s. I wouldn't waste my money at this place again, or recommend it to anyone else!

The host harvests fresh eggs for her amazing breakfasts which include greens from her gardens, among other delectables. The host is a great guide for tourists who may need guidance and advice (we stayed with her for 4 days and she gave us a perfect itinerary each day). Our host calls herself a crafter, which she is... however we wished she could embrace the term artist... because her artwork will amaze and impress you: from sculptures, to quilts, to paintings and more... she is a true visionary. We give this place a million stars!

However, we cheated a bit and drove straight across after Lorne cause we had a baby in the car and she was getting grumpy and tired from being in the car. Luckily for us, staying in Port Campbell allowed us to hit up the Port Campbell National Park super easy the next day! We were staying in town and the national park was an easy 10 minutes from where we were. Some of the best sites along the Great Ocean Road are in Port Campbell National Park, including The Twelve Apostles (the most iconic site for Great Ocean Road), Loch Ard Gorge, The Grotto, London Bridge... they were all within minutes of each other so it was a lot of driving and stopping on day 2 of our drive! We got to see everything we wanted to see and then headed on to the Bay of Islands, which is also fairly close by (less than 30 minutes for sure). I think Port Campbell National Park holds some of the most iconic natural phenomenons you want to see when you google Great Ocean Road! Come one, come all before everything erodes away due to natural circumstances and the ocean waves! Beautiful and glorious - a must see at least once in one's lifetime!
My Dad wanted to take an excursion to see 12 Apostles and at first I was skeptical that it would be…read moreworth it, but it really was. In Australia, it's great to have an experience with the coastal areas, and this one is one of the most famous spots on the Australian coast. The drive is 3 hours from Melbourne. The 12 Apostles are rock formations that stick out of the water near the beach. There were 9 rocks, now there are 8. This park is really a must see if you are near Melbourne. There's another area to go to where there is a gorge and arch. The views are beautiful if you like coastal rock formations and beaches. Check out my pics and you will have a clear idea of what you can expect to see at Port Campbell National Park. We also stopped by a picnic area where there are restaurants and shops nearby. I bought some souvenirs.
The 12 Apostles is the iconic image for Great Ocean Road - when you mention Great Ocean Road,…read moreeveryone knows about the 12 Apostles so it was one of those MUST DOs when you drive the Great Ocean Road. The drive itself is super nice - you get that turquoise water and the ocean at every turn. Some of the roads are windy and some are just flat straight aways - nothing like the Road to Hanna in Maui where you get those tiny tiny curvy roads on the cliffside. Great Ocean Road is paved pretty well, you get lots of space and everything is clearly marked telling you when to expect passing lanes or as the Australians call it "overtaking lanes" =). You reach each lookout point and there is ample parking spots, though it may still be packed on busy days, for each viewpoint. The 12 Apostles has a parking lot and a welcome center with snacks/coffee and toilets! I found that all the lookout points are maintained very well, with paved/wooden walkways leading to the railed area for the sights! The 12 Apostles was glorious, with the iconic rock formations - lots of it is degrading due to the crashing ocean, but the rock formation/layers are neat to look at, as is the blue waters and fresh air. My friend wanted to compare photos because she was here years prior and its fun to see the changes in the natural scenery over time! A must stop viewpoint while on the Great Ocean Road!

It was probably quite fortuitous when I came here because the new owners were in the process of renovating the place and turning it from a tired old country pub in the middle of nowhere into a much more fashionable establishment that doubles as tea rooms. In fact one of the things that they specialise in is high tea, though when I was passing through I didn't have time to really indulge. However, I must say that they have done a fantastic job, and the gardens out the back are simply amazing. Oh, and I should also mention that the staff are really friendly, and quite talkative, but then that is something that I would expect with country pubs.
