It was excellent place for living. Me and my family we were pleased. Good accommodation, clean and mostly the sea views from our balcony. We stayed at 21 number room and it was awesome. Highly recommended.

Perfect location....situated right in the centre of Lorne...easy walkable access to shops and beach...property is showing its age a little and the bathroom was a bit gloomy and old...shower wasn't very clean but overall it was ok...will definitely return but might get another room :)

Very friendly staff and easy check in. Room was clean and bright and very comfortable. Best location in Lorne! A security door would be a handy addition to the room to allow fresh air and keep out any bugs!

Great location and my standard room and amenities suited my needs. There was a lot of noise from rooms above until late each night - TV, scraping chairs and elephant footsteps. Could also hear my adjacent neighbours conversations through the wall. Glad I brought my earplugs along. Otherwise a great experience and facility.

Sandridge - Lorne - the ONLY place to stay !
Great great great - stayed here before MANY years ago, and always wanted to come back - we did at last ! We had a few days, this is a perfect location, as you are right in the main street of Lorne (some rooms are above the shops, others a bit further back). We had one of the ocean view rooms, king size bed, room / bathroom SPOTLESS, it had a balcony where you could sit out on and watch the day past, be it people in the park opposite, or out to the ocean - BLISS ! (especially with the obligatory glass of wine in hand !). If you want it quiet, the sliding glass door knocks out all noises (even with it full open - how we had it every day - it is not really a noisy place). There is on-site parking, 3 days and never used the car - lots of walking - be it to the pier, along the elevated ocean front walking track, or the opposite direction to the old swing bridge (which has a cafe on the beach end ~ a good lunch spot !). Many different places to eat, and of course you have the Lorne Pub just a few min walk away (always nice out on the deck on a sunny day). Also enough different shops to keep you amused. Online staff were great, as was the desk staff - happy and willing to help as needed. Pillows great - nice bedding - clean bathroom - clean room - cold fridge - coffee and tea stuff - toaster - cutlery, plates, glasses etc. Overall - a perfect place for our 3 nights away ! Thank you Sandridge ! We WILL be back again one day !

Great location. Lots of amenities in the room including dishes and cutlery much appreciated. Huge classics dvd collection. View of the ocean or at least a tiny slice of it from my particular room. Very accommodating to late evening arrival of soaking wet bicyclists!

It was lovely sitting out on the balcony even with the busyness of the street. Room was spacious. It was not so fun to have to wash crockery and cutlery in the bathroom basin and there was no full length mirrow, though there was a walk-in wardrobe with enough hangars and that was nice.

Yhis was our second time staying at The Sandridge Motel. The motel is right in the heart of Lorne, with a very quick walk across the road, and you will be right on the front beach. It is located very close to shops and restaurants, there is no need to move the car once you arrive!

We feel that the condition of the room didn't match the price we paid. It was very noisy at night when people next room took showers or walked around the balcony. However, the location is good, closed to businesses.
