We had the end unit which was nice and a cute little patio and the off season prices and customer service could not be beat! 4 instead of 5 stars because the jets on the big beautiful tub we were told right off the bat was broken, so we weren't able to enjoy that :( Nice to have free DVDs to borrow from the front desk as well as we got quite a rainy/windy day while we were there!! Also appreciate being able to leave our stuff at the reception desk since our bus came 5 hours after the required checkout time. Great little place we'd recommend for visitors to Port Campbell!

I usually attribute comfort inn to more motel style accomodation. Low expectation, overnight cos u have to sleep somewhere type of place. Although admittedly, this one seems to have a lot more care out into it. The couple managing this place obviously takes a lot of pride and keeping of the rooms. Shower was clean, the queen room has enough space for a small 2 seater sofa and a single armchair. Overall it was a pleasant stay for me and likely to return. This is definitely my pick of the accomodation in this area.

The rooms were exceptional for a Comfort Inn chain and the best we have stayed at in the chain. Rooms are very well appointed and looked after and the couple that run the hotel are lovely and clearly take pride in the accomodation and how things are maintained. Bed was a king size and comfy and the bathroom clean and with everything you need. Would definitely make this our choice on our next visit!

Well, I can now say that I have visited this pub and had a beer, which means that it is another…read moreplace that I can mark off of my list of pubs to visit (though I doubt I will ever get to grace the bar of all of them). It was probably quite fortuitous when I came here because the new owners were in the process of renovating the place and turning it from a tired old country pub in the middle of nowhere into a much more fashionable establishment that doubles as tea rooms. In fact one of the things that they specialise in is high tea, though when I was passing through I didn't have time to really indulge. However, I must say that they have done a fantastic job, and the gardens out the back are simply amazing. Oh, and I should also mention that the staff are really friendly, and quite talkative, but then that is something that I would expect with country pubs.

We led into the visit with a BBQ lunch at Deep Lake at Derrinallum which was very enjoyable, with a pleasant number of people around engaging in yachting, kayaking, camping and chatting. Arrived at Darlinton's beautifully refurbished Elephant Bridge Hotel at 2pm complimented with a warm welcome from owner Karin. If you are looking for an escape into a totally different dimension of life, as we were, I suggest you take a picnic rug and lay under one of the large palm trees on the undulating slope in the rear garden, with a good book and a friend to read it to you. The clouds and sky are a beauty we take for granted and rarely we take the time to lie on our backs to observe and appreciate them. On this day the sky was a brilliant blue and the fluffy white Cumulus clouds contrasted with the distinct feathery lines of the Cirrus clouds, reminiscent of those often depicted in early paintings, all of which helped to transport us back to a time that was fitting for such a fine old building. As requested in advance, Karin prepared a very pleasant evening meal and joined us later over tea, coffee and wine. Conversation flowed easily and Karin is an excellent hostess. The rooms are immaculately furnished and decorated to perfection and the bed comfortable, with a height that immediately makes my mind flash back to my grandmother's high bed from my childhood. The bathroom is large, exquisite and conveniently located. Breakfast of a magnificent nut muesli, and a generous variety of toasted breads, with a selection of spreads, is provided with the option of adding a cooked breakfast for an additional cost. To complete the day we ventured back into Derrinallum and later onto Terang Hotel Bistro, next door to IGA, for lunch, which was also an excellent meal. In the past a climb up Mt Noorat has added an interesting completion to our stay at Darlington's Elephant Bridge Hotel. Noticed on a more recent visit that the Mt Elephant Tourist Centre is open on a Sundays 1-4pm. Thus it is easy to pad out a stay at Darlington's Elephant Bridge Hotel with some simple, pleasant activities that allow the body to slow down and recharge.

The location was very convenient for seeing the fraudulently-named 12 Apostles, especially if you want to be there at dawn. The cabin was chilly, as the entire continent of Australia and every establishment in it seem to be right now. But the heaters in the bedrooms and the heating pads on the beds worked great and that just made everything cozier. There was plenty of hot water. I thought it might run out, but it never did! The towels were clean and didn't have that mildewy smell that I'd been starting to think was endemic in this hemisphere. Could everything have been a bit newer and less worn down? Sure, but it seems like everything is always just a little bit shabbier than you expect when you're traveling, especially after COVID. It was clean and quiet, and the location was great, and that's what matters most. Be careful on the road in and out. It tends to be overrun with kangaroos at dawn and dusk. They are easily startled, and their preferred method of escape is to dive directly under your front tires.

My expectation was maybe more of a farm, but it's definitely accommodation-first with a few animals & fields. Very friendly folks. We stayed in one of the two-bedroom cabins, which are the budget option compared to the nicer, much more expensive cottages. Everything about its finish was functional but plain which was fine; the only bothersome attribute was paper-thin interior walls. Like, you could whisper in one room and hear it in the next.

Do not trust the lockers/changing rooms with valuables…read more My phone was stolen from my bag in the men's changing room/locker area at Deep Blue Hotel & Spa (Warrnambool). The person who took it was a regular member, and the situation was later framed as an "accident," which is not credible based on what happened next. Here are the facts: The phone was taken and no one responded to my Apple Find My Lost Mode message requesting return/contact. The phone was not returned until after I tracked it using my laptop, requested obtained CCTV from Deep Blue Hotel & Spa, and filed a police report. I was able to follow the phone's location history to the person's home area before it was finally turned in to a police station over an hour away. If this was an "accident," the normal response would be immediate contact and return. That didn't happen. It only moved once tracking and police involvement made it impossible to ignore. Warning to future visitors: do not leave valuables in the designated lockers/changing rooms. If you bring anything you can't afford to lose (phone, wallet, cards), keep it on your person at all times.

Thus, we had a delightful lunch, professional service, with a greeting on arrival, and a table in a spacious, light bright position with an outdoor view. There were at least four seafood options on the menu including a seafood pasta dish; two chicken choices, and two beef choices. One of which was the homemade pie of the day. On this occasion there was a pork rib and rice dish as well. The good quality meals were beautifully presented and served with a warm friendly smile. Bar service was good, with a mixed drink being to my liking. New carpet, interesting tables and comfortable chairs added to the experience as did the clean, very adequate, toilet facilities.
