Enjoy this beautiful, thriving seaside town! You have an extensive range of cafes and restaurants in town and an array of boutiques and gift shops for a spot of retail therapy. Rest and relaxation is made easy with everything just at your fingertips. You can soak up the vibrant atmosphere of the regular festivals and events hosted by Apollo Bay or head off the beaten track on one of the varied walks on the beach or in the rainforest Apollo Bay has to offer. Enjoy Tastes of the Region at our local Brewhouse, savour finely roasted coffee in the industrial chic café Hello Coffee or indulge in a delightful treat at our famous bakery.

Great place for a short break. Wonderful big backyard that our border collie enjoyed. Short walk to shops, beach, etc. means that the car really is not needed.
