Lovely and helpful owners. The service couldn’t have been better. The room was very clean, warm and comfortable. We had a little balcony which had a good view. A day or 2 before our stay we received a message to say breakfast would now be included for free. The shower head was amazing. The room had Stan, Netflix and other viewing options. It’s in town and close to everything.

There was no cutlery in the room. We messaged to reserve parking but it was more of a first in best dressed situation and at one point we had to park on the road. The curtains didn’t block out any light so the room was bright, very early. The bed head made noise every time we rolled over or even just moved a slight amount, making it hard to sleep. We didn’t mention this to the owners because we were too polite so maybe they aren’t aware.

Fantastic location, close to beach, grocery store, liquor store, great dining. But still on a very quiet street. The included breakfast was very good - lots of options with both hot and cold choices. Jack and Natasha were amazing hosts helping with reservations and guidance for sightseeing. We stayed in the Captains Cottage, which was very large and a haven at the end of the days. Exceptional bathroom renovation. The little outdoor space was the perfect spot to enjoy appies and a glass of wine. I hope one day we might be able to stay for a longer visit.

There was nothing we did not enjoy while staying at The Captains at The Bay.

The owners are such lovely couple. They look after us very well. We arrived late that night, but they left the keys and notes at the front desk and left the heater open in advance which made us feel so welcoming considering it's a cold and miserable winter night. The next morning, they prepared nice breakies for our family. The property is very well maintained, very neat and tidy. The location is great. We stayed overnight in the two-bedroom unit. It's amazingly specious and very clean. Two separate bathrooms. Separate living room with a large balcony. Loved our stay, and would highly recommand to anyone who wants to stay at Apollo Bay.

There's no tape water in the living room, which means you have to fetch water from bathroom if you wanna to make tea or coffee. Not a big issue but would be perfect to have such facilities installed in the living room.

It is a lovely property, divided into smaller suites of rooms. We had one of the larger suites above the main building, and it was perfect for two friends traveling together One FM had two children. It was a very nice balcony/patio off the room where we had meals and played games. Breakfast was very good with eggs down to your liking. Very good coffee and a selection of fruit and cereals. The landscaping was really beautiful.

The air conditioning in the smaller, two rooms was somehow tied together and worked fit strangely. At one point we messed up the setting and could not get the air to work. The owners lived on site, but we could not get them after about 8:30. it was not so hot that this was a real issue.

If you are goint to experiance the "Great Ocean road" this hotel is a perfect starting point, for day trips around the area. Visit the Twelve apostles, the Cape Otway national park, the beaches, or just the spesial nature around. The rooms was perfekt, and you have your own car park outside your dor. 100 meter to the shops / resturants Duncan and Anna was realy nice, telling the story around the Apollo Bay area. Very nice breakefast with your own *al a cart" egg and beacon........ Highlig recomended.

Our stay at Captain's at the Bay was excellent. The location, just behind the main street of Apollo Bay was perfect. Just a few steps to the local supermarket, and only several hundred meters to the beach. The room was comfortable, well appointed with a very clean and spacious bathroom. The bed was also very comfy! We received helpful tips to explore the wonderful surrounds, as well as a friendly and personal service on check in and check out. Apollo Bay, although a little smaller than other cities down the Great Ocean Road (such as Lorne) is blessed with a beautiful beach, great seafood and a stunning location close to the otways rainforest. For those looking to explore the area, we would highly recommend Captain's at the Bay!

We could not fault this property it was exceptional. The bedroom come sitting room was large and the bed extremely comfortable. The bathroom was huge with plenty of space for any necessities. Breakfast was held in the dining room which was well set up and there was everything one could wish for ranging from fruit juice, fruit, yoghurt, cereal, a cooked meal, toast and all you need to go with it plus various teas and coffee.

We could not fault this motel it was a wonderful experience with very friendly hosts.

The location and room are excellent also the room is sparkling clean. The shower product offer in the room is so great quality, we both love it . The staff were friendly . we will come back to stay if we travel Apollo Bay

I recommend can offer better mattress, drive from city to Apollo Bay is long distance trip, its really need a good sleep. The breakfast is not many option. I skip second day breakfast.

We enjoyed our overnight stay here. The accommodation is back one street from the esplanade, so nice and quiet, yet close to shops and the post office. Our room was clean and tidy, but plates, bowls, and cutlery were not already in the room; On asking these were provided though. The husband and wife team at the accommodation were very helpful and a pleasure to talk to.

The water temperature for the shower would fluctuate between just warm, to cold, possibly due to other clientele using the showers at the same time.

We loved the personalisation of our stay! We felt so at home at Captains. Anna & Duncan were phenomenal at recommending things to do in the areas that met our interests as well as recommending food options & where the best places on the beach were. To top it all off we got a beautiful breakfast each morning that was made to order by each individual guest & it was delicious!

The only thing I didn’t like was that we didn’t book in for longer. I cannot wait to come back.
