8/10 Good
"We liked the presentation of the property and convenience of location. What wasn’t so good was the food offerings. There was no option for something small at breakfast. You had two choices, a full or a continental breakfast. Also we booked a cab and the receptionist told us to sit down away from the entry and he would tell us when the taxi arrived. After a long wait we asked where the taxi was and he said it had been taken by someone else. He ordered another but it was then a mad rush to catch our train."

Frequently asked questions

When is the most affordable time to visit Bells Beach?
The most affordable time to visit Bells Beach is generally during the shoulder seasons—autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November)—or the cooler winter months (June to August), outside of major surfing events. During these periods, you'll typically find lower prices for accommodation and potentially cheaper flights into Melbourne, the closest major airport.For solo travellers, the shoulder seasons offer a pleasant climate for exploring the coastline without the peak summer crowds, often resulting in better deals on guesthouses and caravan parks in nearby towns like Torquay or Jan Juc. You can enjoy the stunning coastal walks, like part of the Surf Coast Walk, which offers breathtaking views of the famous surf breaks without any cost.Families might find the winter months particularly appealing for budget reasons, as this is the off-peak season for tourism in the region. While the water might be too cold for swimming for some, the crisp air is superb for beachcombing, exploring rock pools, and enjoying the natural beauty. Many holiday rentals and caravan parks offer reduced rates, and local eateries often have specials to attract customers during the quieter period.
How much does a budget hotel in Bells Beach cost?
Budget hotel prices in Bells Beach vary, but you can find a great deal from £37 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates.
