Accommodation Types & Features

Bimbi Park offers a range of accommodation: eco cabins with full solar power and private bathrooms, deluxe cabins with kitchen and heating, standard cabins, on-site caravans, camping pods, and powered/unpowered campsites. Some units include a satellite flat-screen TV, oven, and private bathroom with shower and free toiletries. Shared bathroom facilities use token-operated showers (AUD 1 per token for 3 minutes). Many cabins overlook paddocks or bushland, and koalas are often visible from the deck.

On-Site Food Options

The park runs a coffee cart (Nathaniel's Coffee Cart) in the morning, and offers pizza nights and fish & chip nights. A snack bar sells basic groceries, drinks, and ice. The shared kitchen and BBQ facilities allow guests to cook their own meals, and a minimarket at reception stocks essentials like sauces, pasta, and toiletries.

Activities and Entertainment

Guests can play 18-hole mini golf, use the splash park, basketball court, badminton, table tennis, and children's playground. Movie nights, outdoor pizza and fish & chip evenings, and a magic show are held regularly. There is a small animal farm with goats and chickens, and wildlife spotting includes koalas, kangaroos, echidnas, and native birds. Walking trails from the park lead to Station Beach and Cape Otway Lighthouse, and the Great Ocean Walk passes nearby.

Location and Surroundings

Bimbi Park is located in Cape Otway, a 30-minute drive from Apollo Bay and an 8-minute drive from Cape Otway Lighthouse. A walking track from the park reaches the lighthouse in about 2-2.5 km. Station Beach is a 1-hour return walk. The park is surrounded by Otway National Park, with access to Maits Rest rainforest walk, Johanna Beach, and the Great Ocean Road. Nearest supermarkets and fuel are in Apollo Bay (20-30 minutes drive).

Guest Services and Facilities

The park offers a shared kitchen, BBQ areas, outdoor fire pits with wood available, picnic areas, and a shared lounge/TV room. Free parking (including accessible spots) is available, and pets are allowed. Facilities include a laundry, minimarket, tour desk, and shuttle service for the Great Ocean Walk. WiFi is free but only works near the reception. Security features CCTV, fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, and key access. The family-run team provides local sightseeing advice and can assist with car issues.

“Koalas are not just a possibility here; they're an everyday presence, often right outside your cabin window. Beyond the wildlife, the park's natural setting in Cape Otway offers genuine tranquility. Its well-maintained facilities and engaging activities, from mini golf to a splash park, cater thoughtfully to families and individuals alike.”
