This was n home away from home for two nights. Everything we needed was just there, and what a view from the balcony where the bbq was. It was a quick walk to the beach and also the main road with all the little shops. Thanks Terry for also making us feel at home, from the day the booking was made. Will definitely see you again.

Property was a little expensive for the quality. Having said that, we did book only a week in advance.
Check in was delayed due to the previous guests not cleaning up after themselves. Fortunately it was a beautiful day and we headed to the beach to pass time.
Terry the property manager was wonderful, accomodating and very knowledgeable.
Property could do with a bit of a spruce up downstairs. Location was great.

Great House By The Beach!
We stayed at Ocean View in Apollo Bay over the Christmas period & found the house to be really great.
It is a couple of minutes walk from the beach which is dog friendly and less than 10 minutes walk into Apollo Bay for shops/cafes/pubs.
The house is really well equipped with good quality furniture and is very clean.
The upstairs terrace is great for relaxing on with a view of the ocean and has comfortable seating and a good quality BBQ.
We would recommend staying here to others and hope to be back on our next trip to Apollo Bay.

Great property
Have stayed in a number of properties within 100m of this one so they all have great location, but family voted this the best one so far. And I really appreciated tweaking the dates when I mistakenly booked the wrong start date.
