"This is a great location for visiting the Twelve Apostles and Timboon Food Artisans Trail. We arrived after dark, and found our key/paperwork in a small, numbered box, so we didn't interact with any staff during our stay. We stayed in #110, which was clean and had amenities like coffee and even a heater! Spring flowers were in bloom, and we could hear the roosters! It was a very relaxing setting. We brought our own banana bread to enjoy with our coffee, and then we set out for the Great Ocean Road and all of the many rock formations."

"When you turn off the main road i assumed the villas were the ones near Chris’s restaurant they are not its a very hard right turn just after Turing off the main road .. The privacy and the views were outstanding and a great surprise compared to what we were expecting at the villas near Chris’s . No restaurant here but then Chris’s restaurant isn’t open all week . Great kitchen facilities and spa bath lovely large king sized beds with another twin bed room Just an amazing place to watch the sun go down and southern cross to appear in the night sky"

"Overall, we had a good stay and the accommodation itself was very good. The property was comfortable and met our needs. However, the customer service and communication were quite poor. The instructions for collecting the keys were not clear enough, and we were genuinely worried that if we arrived after 6 pm, we might not be able to get the keys and access the property. This caused unnecessary stress, especially when travelling and arriving later in the day. Apart from the communication and check-in arrangements, everything else was good. We would just recommend improving the communication and providing clearer instructions for guests arriving after hours."
