Wattle Hill Hotels with a Balcony

Great location

Alkina lodge is so beautiful and nestled right in the forest. You can see kangaroos and deer up close right outside the window. The entire place is high end luxury from the bedding, furnishings, kitchen appliances and bathrooms. The kitchen is very well appointed and has everything for a large group. We only stayed one night but I wish we had stayed longer! It is very close to 12 Apostles and we were able to get there in the morning and beat the crowds. Expedia showed this as a 1 bed, 1 bath so we were surprised to find 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. Huge place for the 2 of us!! I would love to come back with a bigger group of friends and family. We had a small challenge with the check in instructions as they went to spam but the call center reps were so helpful trying to track down the info so we could get in. One tip grocery stores and restaurants close early so if planning to cook get your groceries in Apollo Bay or Port Campbell before reaching the lodge. This is a fabulous, luxurious home in the heart of the forest. Highly recommend staying here on the Great Ocean Road!
