"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 The property map provided is out of date and access to the waterfalls hasn't been maintained.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 really enjoyed our stay. Was great having the restaurant downstairs and the food was delicious. It was a basic room, but that's all we needed for overnight. Spectacular view of the bay."

When the beach is calling your name, you might want to head down to Sugarloaf - San Jose Beach, located 0.4 mi (0.7 km) from central Sugarloaf. Catch the sunset by the shore at Carisbrook Creek, just a short walk away.
"Great spot , quiet and wonderfully kept! Great communication even after hours instructions were spot on! We arrived at our location at night and the key collection was super easy with a provided map and info that made our stay a breeze wish I was there for longer ! "
"Everything was fine except we were not aware that shower was over the spa bath.
As one of our party had mobility issues this meant they were unable to shower.
Even hand grips would have helped."

"Blue Ocean Motel – Don’t Judge a Book by Its... Exterior Paint Job
Okay, real talk: when we first pulled into the Blue Ocean Motel, I had a full-blown “oh no, what have I done?” moment. From the outside, it looked like it might star in a retro horror film called Motel Misery. BUT—big but here—the moment we stepped inside, all our fears vanished faster than free Wi-Fi on a family road trip.
The rooms? Spotless. Clean, comfy beds that didn’t feel like they were borrowed from a 1980s hospital ward. The bathrooms had clearly been updated a few years ago and were sparkling, well-stocked, and honestly better than a lot of big-name hotels we’ve stayed at.
Housekeeping? Absolute legends. Friendly, cheerful, and definitely doing a great job. We saw a previous review bizarrely commenting on someone's race—seriously? If you're rating people based on their ethnicity instead of service, maybe you're the problem. Just saying.
Check-in and check-out were smoother than a coastal breeze—grabbed our keys from the holder and dropped them in the box on the way out. No fuss, no queues, no awkward small talk.
Each room had the usual tea, coffee, and creamer setup (though we didn’t use it, because we were too busy running around town and stuffing our faces). We had two rooms for our group, and everyone was pleasantly surprised—yes, even the picky one.
And the location? Prime. A stone’s throw from the beach, shops, and food, without being right in the chaos.
So yeah, don’t let the outside sca"
"We stayed here for nearly 2 weeks with our 6month old. It was situated in the perfect area, almost on the great ocean Rd, short walking distances to the shops cafes restaurants and hospital. Managers were lovely.
We had a perfect first holiday with our baby. "
"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."
"Lovely motel at Apollo Bay. Super clean, great size bed. Towel quality was excellent. Walking distance to local restaurants. A great place for an overnight stay on our Great Ocean Rd trip."
