The flexibility of the host, the surrounds, the hospitality

Peaceful, natural atmosphere, combined with high quality accommodation. Generous welcome basket and generous, knowledgeable host. A welcome chance to recoup and rest.

“A lovely location with wildlife”

Rural setting with onsite koalas.

The serenity

“A Tranquil setting with great views and ambiance.”

The bed was really comfortable and hosts are easy to get along with. It was nice being able to see a Koala, lovely birds and the dingos they have on the property.

“A quiet spot outside town”

Lovely owner happy to talk about Australian animals and her beloved dingoes. Resident Koala guaranteed! Quiet spot.

“Wild life paradise”

Beautiful property with wonderful owners, where the Wild life roams. We were shown by Cat around, fed the sheep, saw numerous Koalas, various birds and Kangaroos. Cat introduced us to her Dingos, what gentle beautiful animals

“Amazing wildlife retreat!”

Amazing location in the middle of wildlife - lots of kangaroos and koalas next to the room. We loved the sheep and the dingoes. Nice chocolate in the room as well. Catherine was very helpful and shared her knowledge about the area and animals.

“Excellent retreat in nature but close to town”

Loved the location out in the country with sightings of kangaroo and Koala. The bed was really comfortable and although compact the room worked really well. The bathroom was modern and clean.

The room was lovely - very comfy bed, spotless and modern bathroom, and a very generous basket of goodies on arrival (toiletries and breakfast, etc.)

“Cozy room in beautiful surroundings”

We received a very nice welcome basket with delicious things. The bed is super comfortable and Caterina gave us a fantastic accommodated tour around their beautiful property (on which we could feed and meet the animals, including their dingos). In the morning, we could observe many nice birds. The accommodation is very quiet and conveniently located just outside of Apollo Bay.

“Beautiful surroundings and accommodation”

This place was amazing with so much wildlife on the doorstep - we saw koalas, wallabies and kangaroos within a few minutes walk of our room. Our hosts were so welcoming and provided us with a tour of the grounds and allowed us to meet their dingoes. The room was very cosy, clean and comfortable. We would absolutely stay here again if in the area.

“Peaceful and comfortable”

Very comfortable room, lovely property and family. We saw koalas, fed the sheep and got to hang out with the dingos and learn lots. Great location for getting out and going on some walks and down to the beach.

“Peaceful place in a magical forest”

If you are looking to connect with nature, this is your best option! The room is comfortable and has everything you'll need. The sound of the parrots will wake you in the morning and you can explore the area by yourself or ask Brett & Cat for a tour. Get ready to spot koala's and meet their beautiful dingoes. This place is just magic!

We had an absolutely delightful stay at Great Ocean Road Wellness and Nature Stay. The room was incredibly cozy. What truly made our stay exceptional was the opportunity to interact with their adorable sheep. Being allowed to feed them was a unique and memorable experience that we'll cherish forever. The combination of cozy accommodations and the chance to connect with nature made our stay truly unforgettable. We can't wait to return!

“Relaxing weekend away”

Everything was great. The room was comfortable and very relaxing. I need that room spray 🤪 The tour of the property was an extra bonus as we got to meet the animals and see koalas.

“Australian wildlife at your fingertips”

We were very touched by the welcome basket and the attention to detail in the cottage. The hosts are incredibly lovely. We had arranged to meet them in the morning for a guided walk on the property and saw so much native wildlife: koalas, wallabies, kangaroos, parrots basically at the breakfast table. However, Meeting the dingos was the most touching and memorable experience of our whole Australia trip. Just beware, they sleep right next door so you might hear them at night.

“The host was great. Went above and beyond. Very peaceful setting. Enjoyed the wildlife.”

Lovely and clean and peaceful

“magnificant accomodation with singular flair”

We had found a hidden treasure: The little flat is soo stylishly interior decorated on high level. It comes upon super clean and cosy. Although it is located in wonderfull nature, direct to the great ocean road, only a short hop to town, Restaurants and beach. Furthermore we found plenty of unexpected, lovely set ups, which mad us feeling to stay with friends. We enjoyed our breakfast müsli in the morning sun. Caterina and Brett - the whole family - are terrific sympathic people. They showed us the typical animals like koalas, the frindly dingo‘s, sheeps… we saw many birds,all living on the ground. Greatly thanks for your outstanding hospitality, your sense for wildlife and unforgetable moments!! Katja und Hermann

“Lovely Baby moon”

We loved staying at this property and being around all the animals and nature The Dingo experience was absolutely amazing and something I'll never forget. Great location and a perfect place to have a babymoon before the arrival of our little one.
