Grovedale was our first point of call in lovely Victoria. After flying in to Avalon airport, we decided it was a good starting point to explore the Great Ocean Road. We were pleasantly surprised with the location and proximity to Torquay, and received a warm welcome on arrival. You can really tell this place is a family run motel, which... More

During our travel through Great Ocean Drive to Queenscliff - Sorrento, we stayed one night over here. We stayed in 2 bedroom family room for $215. This motel is old one but not bad to stay for one night. Maintenance of the room is ok but management should consider some maintenance e.g bathroom handle screws are not fit properly etc...... More

The location was ideal to be able to head in any direction to the beaches, Adventure park or the Queenscliffe ferry. The kids were also able to ride their scooters... More

We arrived late in the evening but the staff were easily contactable and arrived promptly to let us in. We did have an issue with the TV but on talking to staff this was resolved making... More

Breakfast too expensive, went to supermarket and bought bread, butter and jam for much less (they did supply toaster, jug, coffee &c). Lamps over beds didn't work, office closed 7.30pm, so couldn't resolve when noticed, Sufficient towels but only one face washer for up to 3 guests. Lied about wheelchair access, on complaint claimed people with wheelchairs had stayed there... More

Whilst we appreciate guests feedback both postiive and negative as a way of improving our business we would like to have had the opportunity to address the concerns on arrival rather than waiting until 10 am next morning. We believe that honesty and integrity are values that we strongly adhere to and were extremely surprised by several of the comments... More
