"This is not worth the cost. It is basically a farm stay surrounded by introduced trees with the faint smell of cow dung and the sound of gun shots. It may be near beautiful native trees of the Otways, but they are not accessible. The property map provided is out of date and access to the waterfalls hasn't been maintained. Be prepared for long arduous walks and rock climbing to access them. We stayed for a week on daily rates but had no top up of supplies. We had to supply our own soap, bin...

Apollo Bay Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"Magical spot, cabins are cosy and welcoming. "

Lorne Coachman Inn

4/10 Poor

"Parking was ok. Bed was ok. Location was good. The facilities were very poor, not particularly clean and the reception stunk of cigarettes. The amenities consisted of a small plastic bowl, 2 spoons, one teaspoon and two knives and forks. No cooking utensils or sharp knife. No laundry facilities and despite putting our please clean our room sign out, we had nothing done and dirty towels still in the bathroom. Air conditioning didn't work. The place would have been ok in Vietnam or Cambodia but not acceptable for Australia "

6/10 Okay

"The buffet breakfast was very good with a larger variety than others we had experienced. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was tight and we were wondering why some got rooms with assigned parking and others had to compete for the limited spaces. I had no idea this would be the situation or I might have been willing to pay for not having to worry about parking. Once parked, we were afraid to go anywhere with the car for fear that we wouldn’t be able to park on return. There was also a convention going on at the hotel, which made the entry and exit tricky as the hotel had set up a large tent near the lobby doors. We had to drive in to the lobby area for check-in / checkout and then back out the same way we came in. The lobby was noisy and crowded, but the staff were very pleasant and helpful. The grounds were beautiful and the proximity to a beautiful beach was a plus. "

6/10 Okay

"Arrived just after 4.00pm and surprised to find Reception locking up (although promotional material indicated Reception open till 8pm). Got there in the nick of time!) they said they had sent a message to say key was under the mat at my assigned room - but I couldn’t access the message …I hate to think if I had arrived a minute later where I would have been left!
