We have stayed here before. Close enough to hear the waves in Port Campbell. Lovely outlook and location. Very comfortable and clean. Very friendly check in. Rooms have been renovated. Comfortable beds and appointments in room. A great base to to explore this part of the great ocean road. Easy walking distance to beach and shops.

Property is refurbished and in good condition. Stayed in the Seaview Family Deluxe and the minor pain points were: the queen bed is on wheels in the main area so a bit unstable; bathroom shower is too low & cramped for a tall individual; missing a mirror above the vanity and the towel hooks are too high up for a vertically challenged person.

We only stayed one night but we felt really comfortable in the motel. Waking up and looking at the bay was also amazing!
