Great location, very friendly team, great rates. Ocean views and ocean sounds. Appollo bay is "The Hidden Gem" in Victoria for those seeking quite gateway and connection with nature through Apollo Bay beaches & Otway National Park, this neat motel has been our perfect resting spot for the couple of days getaway from Melbourne. Highly recommended.

Ocean view. Brilliant. Everything in the room you could want (except a box of tissues). Working heat and cool. Our mattress was a little tired but one night did not cripple my back issues. No noise from the highway which is between the motel and the view. And well priced for Apollo Bay at the weekend. Would stay there again.

A stay with no frills in this nice motel within walking distance to the town but with a beautiful view on the sea. The room could use a little glow up but for one night is more than enough. Staff friendly at check-in. Would stay here again.
