Little Plum Cottage
It was an amazing spot. great to repeat

Point of View Villa 5 of 5 - Couples Retreat
We had a great stay in the couple's room. It was clean, quiet, and very comfortable. The villa was beautiful and perfect for relaxing. We really enjoyed our time there.

The Boomerang: Possum: Johanna Beach
This place was awesome and exactly as pictured! Nice gardens to walk around and look at flowers and vegetables growing or sit outside and bird watch. Highly recommend this place and these hosts! Easy drives to lots of pretty places. We saw kangaroo and koala in the wild on our day trips and stunning scenery! Beds were comfortable as were other furnishing. Nice shower, wish I’d had time to try to jacuzzi tub. Decor was nice and beautiful artwork on the walls. Really nice place!

Ocean View Forest Cottage on The Great Ocean Rd
Glenaire Cottages are a little slice of heaven. Tranquil, secluded and beautiful. Cosy and comfy stay and the spa baths are next level! Hosts are super helpful and proactive giving heaps of recommendations. Definitely recommend!

Sunrise Spa and Fire No 5
The cottage is just as advertised. Very clean, very comfortable, very charming. Only stayed one night. Sorry we didn’t plan to stay longer.

Lake Cottage on Great Ocean Rd – Glenaire Cottages
We stayed at Rebecca and Sav's peaceful retreat after 3 nights hiking on the great ocean walk. It is all you could need, comfortable and in a truly spectacular location.

Sunny's Beach House , Apollo Bay Cottage & Jacuzzi
Thank you Alex, our holiday exceeded all my expectations! The space was beautifully decorated, clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could ask for. The location was perfect, allowing easy access to the beach and a short drive into Apollo Bay. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor space, which was great for relaxing after a day of exploring. Overall, I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I can't wait to return!

Beechy Cottage
Rickie-Lee's place was clean and was fully stocked with amenities and things we could use to make our stay great. We made full use of the BBQ and fire pit. Beds were really comfy and the house was well insulated which would be great for the colder months.

Blue Bollard pet friendly holidays
We had a great one-night stay at The Blue Bollard. Joanne was a responsive and welcoming host, greeting us on arrival. The space was clean, tidy, and cutely decorated—just what we needed for a short stay. Conveniently located near Apollo Bay’s restaurants and pubs, it made exploring the area easy and enjoyable.

Space, Relax, Rewind, Panoramic View and Fire Pit!
I stayed here for one night and it was lovely. The views are absolutely amazing, the area is great, and the house is very comfortable with plenty of space. Annika met me at check in to show me round and was very friendly. Her dog, Mali, was also very friendly and well behaved when she came to say hello, staying outside the house. Would love to stay again if in the area, thank you Annika!

Bells Beach Escape – Secret Hideaway in Jan Juc
Such a beautiful place to stay, the perfect location with a perfect balance between secluded, serene nature and being walkable to amazing shops and cafes. Very close to the most beautiful beach. All possible amenities were available with so many personable touches around the house to welcome. The hosts were super attentive with every detail of the stay mapped out and explained, as well as being so warm and welcoming to make you feel so at home!

Hideaway Cottage - Secluded Retreat - Pet Friendly
Lovely place in the bush. Very clean and peaceful. Great to have a fireplace and dvds to watch. Telstra was available. The road was long and winding so I wouldn’t recommend doing many trips back and forth

Tranquillity in a private acreage garden - 2 BR
Stacey is an amazing host, even offered late checkout as she knew we had our daughter’s wedding. The place was easy to find, clean, comfortable and cozy. Would highly recommended Stacey’s place to everyone, can’t thank her enough for her hospitality.

Family friendly cottage in the Otways! Mannagum
Wow! This place is amazing. We were a family group of 10. Two families of four and two grandparents. As a group we ranged from highly active to reduced mobility (walker) and it was an ideal environment for us all to explore and reconnect, over and over. There was something for everyone. The swimming pool was brilliant and it was a real treat to be swimming and looking at sheep and horses grazing in the paddock, with rolling hills and bush beyond. The kitchen was great and the dining table fit us all, so we enjoyed dinner around the table together each night after bushwalking the various tracks. We thought three nights would be enough to do everything as the property looked to be reasonably remote, but we were wrong. There is so much to explore in the local towns and within the property. We loved it so much that we are already booking again for next year! Highly recommend if you want space to relax, bushwalk, and reconnect with loved ones. I could say more but I've run out of words!

Billies retreat - perfect City escape
We just adored our stay at Billie’s in Birregurra. Beautiful and comfortable home, that is very well equipped! Great kitchen, big backyard which was good for the dog and we loved using the fireplace in the lounge at night. Travel cot and high chair were fabulous for our little one. Excellent location, easy walk to the Main Street in Birregurra and lovely neighbours. Made for a wonderful family holiday, would definitely stay again.

BeRested @ SleepWell
Kat's place is a gem, if only the bricks could talk, so much history! Such a clever layout and the skylights made it lovely and light. Very welcoming with some lovely touches that added to the homely appeal. Although the mini garden isn't enclosed I managed to close it off with one of the bins and could then let my dog out in the morning without him exploring further. My only issue was the parking, a bit squeezy for my Forester so the back stuck out into the gutter.

The Nook: Country Farm Cottage
Fabulous house and beautiful gardens, one of the best places I have stayed at. Fantastic facilities, love the kitchen and comfortable bed. Wonderful quiet place to relax and recharge, I didn't want to leave but will be back for sure. I also appreciated the wine, bread, coffee and milk in the fridge!

Sea Spirit Ocean View Beach House
Spent a lovely long weekend at Deborah’s place. Great views, amenities and nice finishing touches. Great place to explore the beautiful area. Apollo Bay not far away for shopping or cafe.

Great Ocean Road Cape Otway
Highly recommend Geoff’s place for a peaceful getaway. Lots of nature walks in the area and plenty to spot from the deck on the property as well (Koalas, kangaroos, birds). The house was impeccably cleaned, with a gorgeous fireplace and plenty of books to read and DVD’s to watch which was a lovely extra touch. Geoff was really helpful, had plenty of local knowledge and was great for a chat as I was coming and going. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

Johanna Cottage. A peaceful retreat
Anna’s place was just perfect. Exactly like the photos and description. Anna even provided a homemade fresh loaf of bread and some Easter choccies which was such a treat! If you’re looking for a quiet getaway this is the perfect spot! It’s a decent drive to Apollo bay for restaurants but having the quiet serenity and local wildlife at our doorstep made it worthwhile. Highly highly recommend Anna’s place. Can’t recommend enough!

Ghazeepore School House
We stayed at Claire's place and she was there to greet us and walk us through everything, offered us fresh homemade bread and eggs from their chickens. We had a great stay and will be sure to try and come back again

Willow Wood
Willow Wood was a fabulous place!! Location was a gem -private creek, beautiful surroundings with lots of wild life and walkable access to great bush walks. The house was lovely and we all enjoyed every minute of our stay at Willow Wood. The host was responsive and very caring. Highly recommended!

Kookaburra's Rest
Great place, looks even better than the pictures!

Wye Dream - The Original Wye Surf Club Bunkhouse
Wye dream is an absolute delight. Thank you so much for hosting us, Michelle & Matthew. We loved it so much. Sleeping to the sounds of the waves was a tonic. With kangaroos & kookaburra in the backyard it was a quintessential holiday stay. It’s also really rare to find an Airbnb with full linen included and a fabulously appointed kitchen with an ocean view! There so much light & air in the house it feels easy to be in. It’s not flashy…it’s warm and comfortable & spacious. The location is perfect. Not such an uphill hike but still has views of the ocean from the excellent bedrooms. It’s better than the pictures! For anyone wanting to stay in Wye River, pub & general stores are absolute delights and it’s a great base to explore further afield. Thanks so much again. We really hope to come back!
