"Very nice motel a short walk to the grocery store and the main street. Looks like it's been recently renovated and has a clean modern vibe. They didn't give us the deluxe king room that we had booked but it worked out okay. I would stay here again if in Apollo Bay."

I sadly only stayed here for one night, but this is defiantly the kind of place you 'stay until you die (or have to go back to work)' it's breathtaking. I stayed in Top Lodge no.16 and as soon as I opened the door I was greeted with the most amazing view ever. (I'm going to say amazing a lot bare with me). This apartment has everything you could need for a short stay. Ample kitchen essentials, two lounges to watch tv, which you won't do because of the AMAZING view that pans across the front....

Tremendous stay at Captains. It started with a very warm welcome from Duncan, who swiftly checked me in and showed me to my room.
And what a room! It is quite a new property by the looks as everything was spotlessly clean and very fresh and new. The room contained some great luxuries, such as an enormous bath and in the middle of the room and a very comfortable bed. Excellent bathroom with modern fixtures. It is so nice to stay in a place where everything just works. Minibar and proper wine...

The view is everything, and the peaceful environment. Beds are amazing and everything you need is here (except for a coffee machine but we brought our own 🙏)

Located opposite beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants the motel was ideal.
The room was spacious and beautifully renovated. Bed was extremely comfortable and owners very friendly - a very enjoyable stay.

Wow! This might not have been the first thing we thought when we drove over the hill in Wye River, it was more like 'this place is small, what will we do here for 2nights'. How wrong we were. It is gorgeous!
We stayed in a 2bed cabin and it was perfect for a family with 2 kids. We could see kangaroos and koalas from our deck & fed the birds every morning.
The playground, jumping pillow and river were a huge hit with the kids. The cafe and grocery shop was perfect for early morning snacks and...

Everything was as advertised. The animals were fantastic and the cat was super friendly. We stayed in the Tree House. Not a lot of room in there and all amenities are out side of it i.e. kitchen, toilets & shower, but it was advertised like this so it was expected. Great experience and excellent view.

Fantastic hotel and location in town. Close to all sites, shopping and restaurants. Many activities onsite to entertain the kids. Clean and tidy room with all the necessary basics. Underground car park can be a little tricky for larger cars.

The best area to stay in Mount Sabine is the main village itself, offering the most convenient access to the slopes and amenities.
The village is situated directly at the base of the main ski runs, meaning you can often ski straight from your accommodation to the lifts. It's a compact area with most hotels, restaurants, and shops located within a short walk of each other, particularly along the central promenade. This layout makes it incredibly easy to get around without needing a car once you've arrived.
For families, staying in the village is particularly advantageous due to the proximity to the Beginners' Area and the ski school meeting points. The convenience of having everything close by, from equipment hire to dining options, simplifies the logistics of a ski holiday with children. Many accommodations also offer family-friendly facilities, such as dedicated children's programmes and larger suites.
Couples looking for a relaxing and convenient break will also appreciate the village. After a day on the slopes, you'll find a selection of cosy eateries and bars to unwind in, all within easy reach.
When is the best time to go to Mount Sabine?
The best time to visit Mount Sabine is during the warmer months, from late spring (November) through to early autumn (April), to fully appreciate the region's natural beauty and outdoor activities.
During these months, you'll experience pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 18°C to 25°C, making it ideal for exploring the Great Otway National Park. The walking trails, such as those leading toTriplet Falls or Hopetoun Falls, are more accessible, and the rainforest is lush and inviting. This period is particularly good for families looking to enjoy nature walks and picnics.
For those interested in surfing or spending time on the coast, the summer months (December to February) are peak season. While Mount Sabine itself is inland, it's a short drive to the Great Ocean Road, where towns like Apollo Bay offer popular beaches. Couples might find this time great for combining rainforest exploration with coastal drives and beach relaxation.
Winter (June to August) brings cooler, wetter weather, with temperatures often between 8°C and 15°C. While the rainforest can be atmospheric with mist and higher waterfalls, some trails might be muddy, and outdoor activities are less comfortable.
