The property is well located but is truly right on the Great Ocean Road. Very quiet at night and great views from the 2nd story balcony. You are close enough to the ocean to hear the waves breaking at night. Would recommend to travelers on the Great Ocean Road. Also - dining at Graze in town was fabulous 👍
