We've been going to Apollo Bay for 15 years and have stayed in 15 different places and Toby's place is in the top 3.
Location couldn't be more perfect. Down the beach and forgotten something? No problem. You are 1 minute from the beach. And the garage is generously stocked with beach umbrellas, chairs, boogie boards etc. Close to shops, restaurants, beach, carnival and the servo and right on the Great Ocean Road but weirdly quiet and private at the same time.
My highlight: having a bath in the morning in the 3rd floor en suite with the sun streaming in, ocean views, a cup of tea and a good book. Choose this place. You won't be disappointed.
