Wildlife like kangaroos, koalas, wombats, and birds can be seen on the 8.5-acre grounds. Some rooms have a kitchen or kitchenette; others are basic motel-style.
On-Site Dining Options
The on-site restaurant specializes in Asian cuisine, with home-cooked meals available on request (e.g., chicken curry, slow-cooked beef, fried rice for $25). No other shops or restaurants are within walking distance, so ordering dinner is recommended. Continental breakfast items are not provided, but guests can use in-room microwaves and toasters.

Guests have access to an indoor swimming pool and recreational facilities. The property includes a garden, terrace, outdoor furniture, and a BBQ area. A friendly resident dog (Hela) and alpacas are on-site. The quiet countryside setting is ideal for star-gazing at night. No spa or fitness center.
Location and Getting Around
The motel is 3 km (a 4-minute drive) from the Twelve Apostles lookout, adjacent to Port Campbell National Park. It is a short drive to Port Campbell (15 minutes) for groceries and supplies. The access road is unsealed and may have potholes. A car is essential; no public transport nearby. The Great Ocean Road is the main route.
Services and Practical Info

Managers Eric and May offer helpful service and can prepare home-cooked meals on request. Safety features include fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, and key access. No business center or kids' club.
“Its proximity to the Twelve Apostles is undeniable, offering immediate access to sunrise and sunset views.
