Really comfortable stay
Our room was very clean and contained everything we needed for our stay. It was very cold while we were in Apollo bay but our room had a good heating system and electric blankets on the bed which was lovely. The bed and pillows were very comfortable.It was situated just on the edge of town so convenient for all the shops and restaurants and was very quiet. Very good value for money.

We had the most wonderful stay with Michelle and Andrew. The rooms were very clean, well stocked and the bed was super comfy. My husband and I loved the personal experience. The worst part-we had to leave but, we will be back. Carly and Chris from Tassie.

Fabulous highly recommended
Stayed here 1 night but should have stayed longer. Excellent location and only 5 minutes to town. Room was very comfortable directly across from the beach and had everything an apartment would have (cups, bowls, cutlery, etc) which makes it super convenient when traveling for a quick breaky. Highly recommend you stay here with very welcoming hosts too.

Friendly service from Michelle. Sufficient parking space. The villa is spacious however the lounge area could be better lit. The water temperature in the shower was either scalding hot or icy cold. This was the case at various points throughout the evening when different family members used the shower.
