Guest Reviews
- Kerrie J O (9/5): Great Ocean Road accommodation - The accommodation was cute and styled nicely. The bed and lounge were comfortable, and the shower was great. There was a small kitchenette. The host was responsive. It was in a peaceful location in a small town along the Great Ocean Rd. I didn't realise this accommodation was the front half of a house with a locked door between the front and back, but it was perfectly private.
- Tiffany (9/5): Great place to stay along the great ocean road. - Clean, looks like the pictures and well equipped with everything we needed. The bed was really comfy.
- Lynette (8/5): - Clean and spacious
- Matheus (10/5): Exelente acomodação - Fiquei 1 diária no The Weekender, em Peterborough, no final da Great Ocean Road, e gostei bastante.
Ótimo lugar para descansar depois da viagem.
Tranquilo, confortável e bem localizado. Recomendo! 👍
- Russell (7/5): - Comfortable beds. Good shower No table and chairs for eating.

- Gary (9/5): - Clean tidy good quality bed, sofa and tv Nothing -
- Julia (9/5): Schöne ruhige Unterkunft an der Great Ocean Road - Super Ausstattung, bequeme Betten.
In der Küche gab es eine Herdplatte und sogar einen Reiskocher. Auch waren Essig, Öl, Salz, Pfeffer vorhanden.
Unterkunft war leicht zu finden und man kann direkt vor dem Haus parken.
In wenigen Gehminuten ist man am Meer und kann dort am Cliffwalk spazieren gehen.
Die Wohnung ist Teil von Jim's Haus, hat aber einen eigenen Eingang sodass man seine Privatsphäre hat.

- Nigel (9/5): A great place to stay & good value - A great little building with everything you need.
Bed and pillows super comfy. Being told a few days before arrival that we couldn't check in until 4:30pm instead of 3pm. But we worked around it.
Other than that it's a great place to stay in the area and good value for money.
- Jennifer (9/5): Convenient - A very comfortable bed and lounge room sofa. Neat and clean. We weren’t able to eat at the table as it was wet and cold outside. We improvised, however, and it was fine.
- John (6/5): Pleasant - Location Could hear other guests
- Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
- Peron (10/5): Exceptional - The Weekender it’s perfect for one or two nights if you’re doing the Great Ocean Road! Small but very complete :)
- Malcolm (9/5): Superb - Great little place
- Dona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional - Space is very cosy for a weekend get away.
- Noel (9/5): Superb -
- Ck (7/5): comfy place but patio need upkeep - the shower water pressure is amazing, the bed is very comfy, memory foam the bbq grill is unusable, very dirty and need some maintenance. the butane gas is empty. the seating area in the patio are missing cushions making it unusable. we booked it thinking of doing some bbq but ended eating out
- Stevespeight (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean, easy to get to and into.
- Isabelle (10/5): Exceptional - Wow, this is such a great place to stay for who wants to be in a quiet and comfortable place! Not in the middle of the busy touristic spots but near enough to visit them by car. And with wonderful short hikes to do around! The apartment is clean, quiet and comfortable, it was a perfect stay!
- Alison (9/5): Superb -
- Mark (8/5): Very good -
- John (10/5): It was fantastic - Location was perfect for our needs
- Sam (9/5): Superb -
- Charles (10/5): A little haven on The Great Ocean Road - Spacious, clean and attention to detail in areas where it matters! Such as carefully chosen and thoughtful duvet cover and bed sheets, towels, and milk in the fridge. Loved the outside area for morning tea and sunrise
- Jaya (9/5): Superb - Cozy and comfortable. Well priced, clean
- Robyn (8/5): Very good -
- Rebecca (10/5): Very happy with stay. Very professional host, nice & clean accommodation with small kitchenette. And also very comfo - Very clean accommodation and comfortable. Nothing
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Robert (9/5): Superb - Lovely place! All new and clean. A dining table would make it a 10/10
- Lorraine (8/5): For a night or two it was perfect for a couple. - I loved how clean and comfortable this accommodation was, and how quiet the area was, being a little off the main drag. Apart from cooking/meals space it had everything we needed. My only downside was the kitchenette. Although most people wouldn't mind, I would have liked being able to prepare a meal since I was staying three nights. Once you got out the electric hotplates there was no prep space. It really is just a weekender for people who can afford to eat out the whole time. Also, I didn't realise until we got there that this was actually the front part of the owner's house, and it took a little time to get my head around that. They didn't disturb us at all, just wasn't expected.
- Ron (7/5): Nice area - Nice area. No dining table and chairs.
- Oleg (10/5): The best of the best 😎👍 - Recently stayed in a cozy place, and the experience was absolutely positive! The spacious and clean space fully matched the description. It had all the necessary amenities to feel at home. I definitely recommend this place for a comfortable stay!
- Ali (8/5): Very good -
- Wen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Murphy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sandra (9/5): Superb - Good location. Close to beach and town.
- Konrad (10/5): Cosy apartment on the Great Ocean Road - Cosy apartment on the Great Ocean Road. You can feel at home. Full equipment. Dozens of parrots outside the window. Walking distance to the waterfront. Everything was great. I would highly recommend.
- Fiona (5/5): Warm and quiet. - Heating and bathroom were great.
Bedroom spacious.
Very quiet area. Didn’t have table and chairs.
In a new housing estate.
Everything we used from Kmart.
- Tracey (6/5): A pleasant overnight stay -
- Marta (10/5): My stay was beyond good. Don’t look for other options because this one is the best. Don’t have second guesses about maki - The place was beautiful, fully equipped, with brand new renovations and extremely clean. The bed was better than my own, sheets and quilt were perfect. The location is great because it’s very close to main lookout spots of the great ocean road. I feel the place could use a small dining table (like desk size instead of the coffee table) considering you have a fully equipped kitchen.
- Orlando (9/5): Superb -
- Jeremy (10/5): Lovely place to stay whilst experiencing the Great Ocean Road! - The Weekender was the perfect place to stay overnight whilst driving out from Melbourne to experience the Great Ocean Road. Checking in was easy by collecting the keys from the lockbox on the door. The TV was easy to use and the lamps in the lounge room and bedroom created a cosy and relaxing vibe. My special request was to be able to plug in an electric car overnight. As it turns out, the owner of the Tesla did not provide me a home-charging kit anyways, and I was able to supercharge in Warrnambool after having enough range to see a few more sights along the Great Ocean Road in the morning - so this was not as much of an inconvenience as I was anticipating it to be.
- Rob (8/5): No issues with a good location given our driving schedule. - Comfortable accommodation- limited choice for dining, however the local hotel was good.
- Marie (8/5): Very good - Location was great. House is across the road from Clifftop Walk trail to Bay of Martyrs and into town. It's a 5 mins drive to The Grotto and "London Bridge" and 10 mins to 12 Apostles. Bed ensuite and lounge were good. There was also a small courtyard with chairs and table. Kitchen was very small and awkward to cook anything. There was a small portable stove which was handy but not much room for it on sink/bench. The host lives in the back of the house and he was very helpful and friendly. Kitchen was too small and could eat on lounge and coffee table.
- Vincent (8/5): Good pit stop on the great ocean road - Clean place. Away from the noise. Many birds around. Comfy bed. Good value for money. No sustainable toiletries (just 2 pieces of soap, no shampoo/conditioner). The little backyard is quite enclosed. Limited kitchenware.
- Wendy (8/5): Great little place - Lovely accommodation, the private garden is a nice touch, great facilities. It was so peaceful, just the sound of waves nearby. Highly recommend taking the cliff top walk to the local store. Would definitely stay here again. Nothing
- Ashleigh (10/5): Exceptional - It was very clean and tidy, cute little place for a couples getaway.
- James (9/5): Superb - Easy to find, all you would need. Homely and comfortable and very clean
- Weishuai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Catherine (7/5): Good - Great location and very comfy bed
- William (9/5): Superb -
- Miria (9/5): Peterborough is a great getaway location close to beautiful coastline. The property has all necessary amenities, privacy - Great location! Property had all necessities and a relaxed environment
- Ángel (10/5): Fantastic for visiting the GOR - Not only that everything is new, but the owners were very thoughtful of buying a very comfy bed and coach. TV with everything you need, amenities, garden with bbq and it is so quiet around it. 10/10 Nothing
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
- Victor (10/5): Clean, comfortable and quiet stay. Excellent. Would stay again in future. -
- Divya (8/5): Very good -
- Rafael (9/5): Superb - Brand new accommodation. Very spacious. It may sound silly, but the pillows were really good!
This is something that is neglected be the vast majority of accommodation, but not with this one. Nice touch!
Would definitely stay there again. Curtains were new and in great condition, but they could clean some of the spider webs in them.
- Agnieszka (8/5): Great short term stay - Very easy access to the property, able to park right out front. Everything that's needed for a short term stay The only thing separating the guests from the hosts is a door. It felt uncomfortable at times being able to hear other people in the house
- Luísa (9/5): Totally recommend! - Everything!! That bed … amazing!!
- Jacel (9/5): Great! -
- Myron (10/5): Highly recommended! - This place had everything we needed, it was very clean, spacious, and the bed was comfortable. It was also great to have a BBQ and other cooking facilities to make a nice meal. Even though the place is connected to the main house, it was apparent the hosts had done their best to ensure privacy was maintained. There is a separate outdoor area where the BBQ is and you have ur own private enterance into the home, we hardly noticed they were there. Instructions for getting to the place and into the house were very easy to follow. Would highly recommend staying here :)

It's only good to inform guests, that the door in opposite of the front-door is locked and not to be opened. There is the living room of the hosts and you can hear each other.

- Camille (10/5): Exceptional - Jim was exceptional, kind and helpful. The appartment was very cozy, clean and comfortable as well as very well located with a direct path to the beach. We had a wonderful stay!
- Mick (9/5): Well situated to pull up stumps at the end of a long day driving along the Great Ocean Road - Cleanliness was great. Comfortable bed。plenty of kitchen utensils for eating. Good water pressure in the shower.
- Frances (9/5): Nice, clean and comfortable place to stay along the Great Ocean Road. - Super convenient place to stop along the Great Ocean Road. Very comfortable with all you need.
- Moon (9/5): Highly recommend this beautiful stay - We stayed there for a night during our trip to the 12 Apostles. Great place and a very helpful host. All the facilities were available.
- Jukka (9/5): Nice and clean apartment near GOD - Nice and clean bedroom with good bed and linen.
Also bathroom looks new and it’s clean.
Living room is a real room, not just a corner, and nice sofa and others.
Very near Great Ocean Drive and western top-spots. In Peterborough there is limited food services, restaurants, and in grozery I found there was not a food you can heat in microwawe-oven, which tourists usually have in their accommodation.
This is good to know that you must plan your dinner beforehand, trip to Port Campbell or smh.
