Josie and the team are always fantastic. We have stayed here several times and just love it. The location, access to the town and the Motel itself are perfect.

We could not fault the room which was modern, tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable. The proprietors, John and Josie, provided helpful advice about what to see in the area and also ensured that we visited some of the sights that made our trip down the Great Ocean Road a memorable one.

Stayed for 1 night. We had a wonderful and enjoyable stay. The owners were so friendly and helpful. The check-in was fast, we were able to get into our room and rest after the long journey drive from Melbourne. It was cold and wet the whole day but we felt so warm at Portside Motel as the room is already... More

Unlike the previous reviewer, we had a very enjoyable stay as did our friends who had a similar room to us. We were warmly welcomed, the room was spotlessly clean, the kitchenette suitably equipped, the beds comfortable, the shower hot and the price was very reasonable. Could not ask for more.

It is a delightful change from the standard motel room. Lovely room with a big sliding window onto its own little patio and garden. My wife and I only stayed one night and were very happy with the facilities. Our hostess was extremely helpful. We will stay at this motel again but longer next time.

Stayed for one night. Reasonable location, slightly away from the town center, but next to a busy road. The room was very spacious with a kitchenette and a little garden area at the back. The bathroom was very small. Overall, clean and comfortable.

We stayed in a two bedroom apartment that was very well equipped and furnished. Wish we could have stayed longer and made use of the BBQ on the deck. Very helpful reception.
