We had a house layout for our family stay, 2 bedrooms, kitchen, living and dining room. A very cosy setup and very smart details, like heating lights in the toilet (it gets very cold in winter and the nice warm lights in toilet helps with the cold). The beds come with heating pads as well which is a great surprise. The kitchen was very well furnished and we love the warm lightings in the house. Great decorations in the house, makes me want to do the same for my own place. Just a very cosy, welcoming place to stay. Great for family want to stay more than 1 night. Location is at Apollo Bay town and just across the beach. Near eateries and groceries. The place is so welcoming that you simply want to cook and eat with the family. Thanks so much for warm reception and thanks for keeping the place so cosy.
Stayed one night here during out roadtrip to 12 apostles.
Arrived late but managed to self checked in. Easy and convenient. Room was super impressive for the price that we paid.
There are several eateries just minutes away from our motel, and about 3 ‘mins walk to the beach front.
Would definitely recommend!
Good location, very close to the center. The balcony can see the sea, and the guest bedroom is a little bit cooler at night. Others are very good, recommend staying.

I arrived at 9pm and was disappointed that the front counter closed at 8pm. However, the motel worked with me and left a key out for my room. The problem was that it is such a huge complex and there were no clear signs that I spent 15 minutes looking for my room. However, once I found where I needed to be, the room was lovely . I wanted to order breakfast but because I was late in I missed the opportunity to do this - can this be done online? I then had to go looking for some breakfast in the morning which I didn't want to do. I would stay at this motel in future as it was well presented and clean, as well as handy to the beach.
The hotel is not far from the center of Apollo town, just a few minutes drive away. Because it was Christmas Eve, many restaurants and shops in the town were closed, and the supermarkets were not closed. Free parking
The front desk of the hotel is on the first floor. It is a Chinese boy with a very good attitude. He gave us a map and showed us where to see the scenic spots. After checking the name, he gave the key to check in without deposit.
The balcony and bathroom are not small, and the bedroom is a bit small, with only one large bed, and can only accommodate 2 people. The room looks out to the sea, there are refrigerators, microwaves, hot water kettles, towels, bathing supplies, no kitchen can not cook, this is a bit inconvenient
Check out at 10 in the morning, put the key on the coffee table, and have free wifi
Apollo Bay is the town where our family stayed the longest on this self-driving Great Ocean Road trip. Our family of five, two adults and three children, stayed in this cabin for three nights in a row. In addition to the beautiful scenery nearby, the most important thing is that it provides bicycles, boats, fishing rods, golf clubs, etc., and you can go to nearby courses. , play at the beach, we have fun every day! The owner Amanda and a friend of hers are taking care of these cabins. They are very nice people and can provide a lot of help to guests. For those of us living in domestic cities, burning wood in the fireplace to keep warm is a very interesting experience!

I wish I had something to compare this to in the same area but it was our first time on the Great Ocean Road. Overall, we really enjoyed the peace and quiet of this place during the ”off-season”. We were here in April which is early Fall. Basically this is a group of small buildings made into cottages a block from the beach. Each one is unique I think. They made arrangements for an early check-in by leaving the keys in an envelope in the door of the office. Thank you so much! We stayed in the front cottage (I forget the name now) but it had parking, a large main room with a bed, sitting area, and a large luxurious tub which I loved using. There's a fridge, and the AC doubles as a heater which we used because we were chilly. The bed also had a heated mattress pad to turn on and make you cozy. Across the street is a supermarket where you can but all your snacks, wine, and what-have-you. Would certainly stay here again, but did notice some cottages on the beach which might beckon us to try next time? One good thing about his location is you are very near all the restaurants and cafes.
Likes: * Movie room with large TV, lots of DVD choices and access to streaming sites * Kitchen has ovens + is well organised + labels for cubbies and items in fridge * Lounge / chill out room available * We got a free upgrade which we loved (thank you!!) * Shop behind reception has all prices - even a laminated sheet in the room to look at * Bathrooms are clean and tidy * Free wifi throughout * Super resourceful and sustainable property with cost and energy saving initiatives * Towels are free and provided in the room at check in Dislikes: * Check in isn’t until 5pm Improvements: * Showers had a leak which meant the water sprayed everywhere but we told the guy at reception and he called maintenance so hopefully fixed soon as this hostel is super sustainable and water waste is a no no * Should be signs so can’t take hot food in the cinema room for the sake of others + furniture
My wife and I recently stayed one night at the Sandpiper Motel, Apollo Bay in a King Room with Hill View (and you could glimpse the ocean from the verandah). I would classify the motel as a typical Australian rural motel. The room was on the first floor and was very spacious and included a microwave, plates and cutlery. The bed was comfortable. There is a free guest laundry with a washing machine and dryer which can be used by guests from 08:00 to 22:00. The hotel still uses individual soaps and shampoos (rather than dispensers) and includes a smart bathroom mirror. An interesting touch is that all the linen is monogrammed with the hotel's name. Prior to check in you are sent a text advising of your room number and the room key is collected from an envelope (with your name on it) placed outside the reception area, so we had no interaction with reception staff. At $122 for the night we thought the Sandpiper Motel was good value and would be happy to return. TC

Great Ocean Walk
老老丁01The scenery is very good, there are beautiful beaches everywhere, beautiful sea, and distinctive seaside rocks. Many people return to Melbourne when they arrive at the twelve disciples. In fact, it is the most beautiful to go forward.
Apollo Bay
DDr BPA quaint, sleepy little town about mid-way along the Great Ocean Road. Stunning beach with absolutely awesome sunrises. Gets very busy with tourists from Melbourne (and elsewhere) in Summer, but in the quieter months you'll practically have the place to yourself
Cape Patton Lookout Point
SssdiabloThis is a viewing spot on Ocean Road. You can see the beautiful coastline, and the momentum is still relatively magnificent. However, this viewing spot is also a relatively small one, just get off the bus and punch in. Don't need much time
