The rooms and toilet were large and clean. Depending on the room you get, some come with a shower curtain while some has a shower screen. Shower amenities and in room beverages were all good. Would highly recommend this as a stopover point for all those travelling along the great ocean road. The beds were rather soft for my liking but my kids were ok with it. As we arrived quite late, the self check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow. There are good eateries nearby within walking distances if you do not wish to drive over.

Nil.

The room was spacious and clean. The washroom was huge (by my standards)! We reached at around 5pm, by then the staff had left office. And because we stayed only for a night, we had zero in-person interaction with staff. However, the staff left very clear instructions how to collect room keys and drop off room keys - which was great and hassle-free. We were given rooms on the ground level which was great, this means we did not have to drag our luggage up the stairs, which can be a challenge when travelling with elderly. There was a card that explains it may take a while for the air conditioning to cool the room - the air conditioning worked perfectly, so not an issue at all. The location is a walk short from where the stalls and local supermarket are, which was great. Make a visit to Apollo Bay Bakery - their pies are tasty!

Nothing!

We enjoyed our stay at the Sandpiper Motel Apollo Bay. The room was very comfortable Bedroom Comfortable bed, lovely and warm with extra rug supplied. Loved the bedside lamps with charging ports in them. Bathroom. Great spa and shower. Could do with a towel rail near the basin for hand towels Kitchen The kitchen facilities were nice, and the fridge worked well.

Although we were informed that the hot water takes a few minutes to come through, it was a bit concerning to see the water wastage while waiting for it to arrive.

We had a wonderful experience at this holiday accommodation! The property was very tidy and clean, and our room was spacious and well-equipped. The self-check-in process was incredibly easy and hassle-free, making our arrival smooth. Additionally, the hosts provided fantastic tips and recommendations for local attractions, enhancing our stay even further. Overall, we were very satisfied with our experience and highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a great getaway!

It was a small unit but immaculate, clean and very comfortable. It was well equipped with a small fridge, kettle, tea, coffee and real coffee cups. A 5 min walk to the beach. Due to the photo on the website we had assumed there was ocean view from the units but there was not but the extremely close proximity to the beach was a plus. Main floor suite with parking. Also very quiet area except when other guests were walking by our door and windows. Bed was very comfortable. Unit was Small but very welcoming and clean. Nice big shower as well.

Cozy comfy rooms. Facilities were perfect. Loved the fact that TV had subscriptions and so many options. It was located so close to the beach. Shops were easily accessible. Sufficient space for car park.

Because I booked private apartment, it was closed off. The view was sad. Hot water took some time. Would have enjoyed having heated blankets in winter climates. This did not affect our stay in any way. We had a wonderful time. Just listing because you asked.

We stayed for one night only. The room was super clean, the bed was amazingly comfortable, linen and towels were of great quality. Hotel was located within an easy walk of all shops, restaurants and beach.

We travelled for a funeral and it had been our intention to leave our luggage at reception while at the funeral. It turns out that the reception is never actually staffed. While this was not a huge issue for us given we had driven to Apollo Bay and therefore left our luggage in the car, it would be a huge issue for any one travelling on public transport, or by other means. The hotel should consider making this information prominent on their website.

Absolutely love the place! The easily accessible, carefully maintained facility. The room was very clean and comfortable and we had this nice view from our window. Easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants. The check-in procedure was clear and sent to us on the morning of arrival. Second-floor room is only a few steps up, nice and quiet.

Nothing really. We saw another guest looking for the breakfast place on our way out during check-out. We didn't book the breakfast though. The front desk was not open at the time, so not sure if there was also an instruction sent to guests for this. It seemed like the guy didn't know where to look for.

The Room that we booked was exactly as the photos that were put up. There was TV along with a small kitchenette in the room. Facilities provided were satisfactory. Proper instructions about the Room and how to access the facitlities (including WiFI) were sent as Text Message on the morning of the booking. This made the check- in simple. The staff (though we did not meet many) were nice. They enquired with us if we need a fresh set of towels. The location of the Motel is perfect. It is not too far or too near to the Town centre. Everything is walking distance though.

- Room walls seem to be very thin which means no privacy. You could pretty much hear the others from the next rooms. - TV could possibly have streaming apps (or at least the possibility of guests connecting their accounts) - A small kitchen and sink is a good to have - Definitely did not like the way the beds/ mattress was put. We were supposed to have double/ queen bed. What we got was 2 single mattress which was put together with a sheet on top of it. This made sleeping difficult since we found ourselves slipping into the gap between the beds.

Easy to find. Easy walk to beach, cafes etc. Good, safe parking.

We’ve stayed a number of times at the Sandpiper. We first stayed when it was quite new and still being expanded, even before there was curb and gutter outside. We generally have the same room each time (and it’s always very clean and tidy), so we notice things that are different. There are signs of wear and tear like chipped window frames, cracked tiles, split plastic welding in the bathroom floor. Not as pristine as it has always been. It may be time for a little TLC. Still, its above average in our opinion.
