Independent - accommodation in Little River

Eden Oak Geelong A big Thank You to the staff for your caring support. We originally booked two nights to recover from jet lag and do some sight-seeing, but eating some bad food the morning we arrived changed that plan. You were able to extend our stay a day at a time, gave a good referral to a clinic, and otherwise made us as comfortable as possible. Our room was nice and comfortable and the common areas are architecturally beautiful with a lovely pool area and surroundings. The location is in a park adjacent to the 4th oldest botanic garden in Australia. Beautiful. Shopping is walkable, but maybe better to drive there if you’re carrying groceries. Breakfast buffet is included. It’s a good one, with eggs, meat, hash browns, baked beans, pancakes, lots of breads, and fruit. Dinner is generally by menu, but sometimes by buffet if a group is being hosted. Overall our stay here is a good memory. We have stayed in hundreds of hotels and this is one of the nicest accommodations in this price range. We got lucky with this gem in the park!

Virgin Australia cancelled my flight home and rebooked on one three days later. So at 11pm I jumped on Expedia and found Punthill Sunshine. They were great, easy check-in and they had a toothbrush and toothpaste- my trip was a day trip. So I had nothing with me. The room was clean, the hotel is only 12 months old. Complimentary coffee (Nespresso) in the room and lobby. It’s a 5min walk to Sunshine station and they even gave me a late checkout ❤️ I would certainly stay with them again.

Nice and cosy
