Check in could not have been easier as Marie left the place open for us. Short walk to coast and town centre. Fish and chips on the harbour was great. Apollo Bay is a great base from which to explore the Great Ocean Road. Day trip to the 12 Apostles with stop offs on the way there and back made a great day. Plenty of food places in Apollo but Marie's kitchen AND WEBER BARBIE meant cooking at home on the deck was a great option.
