The standard continental breakfast was ok, but the ordered breakfast was pretty good. Was made to order pretty quickly so that was appreciated.
Just 10 minutes’ walk from Portland Bay, Mariner Motel offers rooms with a flat-screen TV and Netflix channels. It features free WiFi, a lovely garden and a barbecue area with outdoor seating.

We had a surprisingly good stay, with good modern facilities, a very comfortable bed and everything was quite new. We noted that everything was neat and clean. Parking was easy and right by the door. Pretty quiet too, even though the motel is right on a main road. Units are sheltered from noise by a wall.
Located on the Portland Bay waterfront, overlooking the working harbor, Richmond Henty Hotel features an outdoor swimming pool, a bar, restaurant and a liquor store.

Good location for an overnight stay on the way to the Great Ocean Room from Adelaide. Located near the water was nice. Staff was friendly and helpful.

We drove up to the cottage & was met by a huge kangaroo eating the grass. It was a site to see since we don't see them in the US. I spoke with the owner & he gave me the code to the door & assured me the kangaroo won't bother us & it didn't. Just quite a bit of kangaroo poop to walk around. We saw that breakfast was included & he explained that the food was in the fridge & we had to cook it ourselves. It was a wonderful breakfast!! eggs, bacon, toast, coffee, tea. We've never stayed in a cottage like this & it was an awesome experience! We did the lighthouse tour earlier that day & were the only ones & the guide spent so much time with us, we had our own 3 hour private tour of the lighthouse. You definately must do the tour! We were on a coastal road trip & decided to stay at the cottages since it was getting late & we didn't have any lodging lined up ahead of time. I'm so glad we stayed! The fireplace & the heaters kept us warm & it provided all the amenities we needed. The owner called & checked on us about an hour later to make sure we got in & all was well.
I would highly recommend the cottage! As a Travel Advisor, I will be recommending it to my clients should they be in the area.

Excellent housekeeping, super friendly staff on reception and a lovely quiet location to clean up and recharge after hiking the Great South West Walk.
The cabins in the park are of a high standard, everything works and is functional, no props or duct tape used.
Offering private balconies with views of the harbor or beach, these apartments are just a 5-minute walk from a range of shops and cafes in Portland town center.

My comfortable overnight stay to break the inland journey from Adelaide to Melbourne was an excellent choice. It was not long enough to see much more than the gorgeous Bay, averting eyes away from the port constructions at one side. I enjoyed an excellent seafood meal at the nearby beachfront restaurant.

Seascape was a beautiful place to stay.
Seascape was a beautiful place to stay. Very clean, modern and an easy walk to the shoreline and town.
We walked to town and picked up some roasted chicken & the fixings and ate back at the apartment. Fully equipped kitchen!
Unfortunately, we only stayed 1 night, so can't recommend things to do in Portland, although it is a quaint little town.

Its a great experience to have train ride and the light house and the beach near by. Its a small and welcoming city. Worth to visit car museum if you like motor vehicles. The whale museum is also good. Its easy to spend half a day to one day. Ther is a beautiful lavendar garden on the way to great ocean road from portland, worth a visit.

Portland has so much to offer both in close vicinity and just a short drive away. From the interesting activities at the Port to the many walks around town, safe swimming at Nuns Beach and some very cute shops and cafes.
A short drive to Bridgewater and you will find the most gorgeous beach that gives QLD beaches some strong competition. A few more min up from Bridgewater and there are spectacular view of Blowholes and the ocean at its fiercest.
The historic lighthouse at Cape Nelson is a short drive from the other end of Portland.

Pretty country Victoria town on the sea.
Pretty country Victoria town on the sea. The beach is right in town, else you can drive 15mins to Bridgewater where there's a Cafe right beside the beach with extensive menu & lots indoor or outdoor seating. The Royal hotel in Portland city also offers an extensive menu, very reasonably priced with friendly service and multiple eating / drinking areas, plenty parking or 1 block walk from William Dutton hotel. Portland has Aldi, IGA & Woolworths supermarkets

We visited the park near the port, had a short walk along the beach. The area is clean and safe. We enjoyed the view. We also visited the botanical garden. It is great. Small garden, but lots of beautiful flowers. the city has got several very good places for lunch or dinner. We visited one and had a great lunch. I liked the view form the cliff to the port. It is unique, but it is hard to find the stairs to the beach from the cliff as it is hidden. February is a good time to visit: not too hot, and not cold, perfect.
A beautiful historic superior accommodation house in the middle of town, but just off the main street and super quiet. Easy to leave the car behind and walk the town. The room was beautifully presented with everything you need to cook a meal in the kitchenette. We had a separate sunny reading/relaxing room overlooking the garden and the claw foot bath was a luxury. Our host was a delight. So friendly and helpful with any queries. Loved this stay in Portland.
The room itself was fine but was missing some of the basic things like drinking water, facial tissues. its customers responsibility to bring everything with and just dont expect anything from hotel to provide any of these. Everything is extra if you would like to purchase and that also not available. The hotel room is overpriced, we would not pay the price we paid for the kind of service my family have experienced.
Really nice Cabin style apartment. Located close to water and about 10 drive to shops. The cabins are located inside a nice fenced off area that has lovely grounds with a great communal covered BBQ area with fireplace and dining tables. The cabin is self contained and had everything we needed for a couple of nights stay. No wifi but that was fine for me. Lovely quiet area for a nice relaxing break.
Fantastic place to stay, clean, modern, well thought out accomodation, great value for money. All the amenities you'd expect and more. Great location, parking outside your door, and the owner was friendly and welcoming too. Highly recommend Mariner Motel, of the 4 different motels/hotels we stayed in on our trip, this place was the best by far.
The cabin we rented was excellent - good size, comfy bed. Good cooking and cabin facilities. Park is on the ocean so easy walk to local lighthouse and to shops. Great value for money and probably the best park cabin we had stayed in on our 8000km journey through Victoria and SA. One of the best on the Great Ocean Road for a good price.
Very clean and couches very comfortable. It was fantastic to have a large screen smart tv so Netflix and other streaming services were available. Everything that would be needed was supplied and loved the Tim Tam chocolate biscuits left for a snack 😀 one of the nicest properties I have stayed at.
Very charming and amazingly beautiful and authentic Victorian House. The owner is a very friendly, helpful and very nice person. We regretted to have booked for only one night. The price is, given the uniqueness of the location and the impeccable service, very democratic.
Good location central to city centre and port.
Liked the port or sherry & fruit cake in common lounge
And treat left in fridge each day.
Welcomed the advice from Mandy to use Portland Base Hospital Emergency Care when my wife needed to see a doctor over the weekend.
Beautiful room, so comfortable. The staff very friendly and helpful.
Food was amazing, we enjoyed every meal.
Location was good , very close to shops.
Highly recommend this hotel
Sensational accommodation - very comfortable and homely. Impeccable and friendly service from the host, and very thoughtful amenities (breakfast, etc). Thank you!!
