Feels like home

Felt like we stayed at home. Only thing we didnt like was old utensils and uncleaned kettle. Time to change the kitchen stuff. Other than that all good.

Nice close to the beach and shops

Well located in Apollo bay. Opposite supermarket, also next to main shopping strip on great ocean rd. Accommodation was average, yet sufficient for what we needed. There is a free breakfast available each morning.

Convenient affordable family accommodation

Walking distance to beach and shops. Comfortable apartment. Good heating. Comfy beds. Clean and serviceable apartment. Nothing flash, but good if you intend to be out and about rather than lounging around at home.
