Would highly recommend this motel, very clean, short distance into town, quiet area, free parking, comfortable bed and very good shower with lots of water pressure. Our kids loved the pool and playground onsite too. Rooms are very spacious too. We loved our stay at Phillip Island and can’t wait to return!

This family room was a pleasant surprise. The room was clean, modern, and well-maintained. It was a short walk to the local shops, making it convenient for grabbing essentials or a quick bite to eat. The location was great, just a street away from the beach front esplanade, offering easy access to the ocean and beautiful coastal views. Overall, it was a comfortable and affordable stay.
