This was perfect for our family getaway. The location was great; it was within walking distance of restaurants and the beach. Our stay was perfect, the kids had one room, and we had the other. Small kitchen, table and lounge.

Really comfortable stay
Our room was very clean and contained everything we needed for our stay. It was very cold while we were in Apollo bay but our room had a good heating system and electric blankets on the bed which was lovely. The bed and pillows were very comfortable.It was situated just on the edge of town so convenient for all the shops and restaurants and was very quiet. Very good value for money.

Fabulous highly recommended
Stayed here 1 night but should have stayed longer. Excellent location and only 5 minutes to town. Room was very comfortable directly across from the beach and had everything an apartment would have (cups, bowls, cutlery, etc) which makes it super convenient when traveling for a quick breaky. Highly recommend you stay here with very welcoming hosts too.
