After arriving in Wongarra after a week long stay in an average Melbourne hotel I was overwhelmed by how beautiful this place is. My children were made very welcome and the goodies bag which was left for us had even considered their needs. The beds are heavenly comfortable, the location second to none. Absolute peace and quiet, we didn't even... More

A lovely private and relaxing hideaway cottage with superb views of the Great Ocean Road and the sea. I hesitate in writing a review as I want to keep this place all to myself! The cottage is well equipped and has an excellent BBQ. The eucalyptus forest on the property also houses many wild koalas - it's great fun koala... More

We have been travelling for 4 months and the 2 nights we spent here were 2 of the best we've spent anywhere on this trip. It is a real retreat with incredible views and beautifully equipped and furnished. There are so many extra touches that make this place so special. The large window seat is magnificent and you can sit... More

Wonderful cottage set in an elevated, private position over the Great Ocean Road and its own lovely beach with rock pools. We stayed on a rainy long weekend, but the open fire and games kept us cosy and occupied. Points South has an incomparable view of the ocean - perfect whatever the weather, whatever the time of day or night.... More

Arriving to a gorgeous goody bag and a sensational view,we thought that our stay could not improve by much...by it did...our bedding was the closest thing to sleeping on clouds and the window seat was perfect for napping in the sun.... Hospitality is clearly what Bryan loves and it shows...nothing was too much trouble and he took on board our... More

Arrived feeling pretty stressed....What a wonderful way to chill out....Magnificent view, open fire, bed to die for..made for a lovely short break. Even when we had an issue with our fridge not working properly, a cheerful Bryan went out of his way to rectify the problem...nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend this as a perfect venue to chill... More

We stayed for 2 nights in this place, with purpose to visit the great ocean road (which to our disappointment is in fact most of the time 'not that close to the Ocean'..), luckily this place made all good, even the rain.. Indeed the cottage has a fantastic view on the ocean out of your bedroom, the window sitting corner... More

Wow! That's the reaction I got when I first arrived at this place. Truly, after reading the first two reviews here, I went to try it for myself and boy was I absolutely blown away by this place. If you're looking at the price and thinking is it worth it, I can tell you now that this was the best... More

Our second visit to Points South was just as good if not better than the first... We enjoy the quiet solitude of the location... the starry skies at night and the sound of the ocean breaking near by... The amenities are very good... a Webber BBQ on the sheltered balcony... and there is good coffee and breakfast or lunch to... More

We have recently returned from our sixth visit to Points South within 2 years. The views are incredible, the window seat sublime, the open fire crackling, the bathroom beautiful, the kitchen and deck fabulous and the best night's sleep in a heavenly king size bed. Bryan and Joan are the perfect hosts, there if you need anything but never intrusive.... More
