Sandbar is an older style motel within walking distance to central Lakes Entrance including hotels and restaurants. What sets it apart is that it is very thoughtfully fitted out and hence has a very welcoming and homely atmosphere. It was very clean and very well maintained. It was very reasonably priced and represented excellent value for money, as witnessed by the fact that it was fully booked on a quiet week day. It was a very pleasant surprise and is highly recommended

A great-sized room with a lovely kitchenette. The aircon/heater was in a weird spot but we cranked it up high enough to eventually warm the room up. It was nice to have a shower with a door (as opposed to showers that only have 1 screen and allow the water to splash all over the bathroom floor!) And the toiletries were lovely.
