I had an amazing stay at Barwon Valley Lodge! The beautiful location, surrounded by nature, provided a serene escape. The abundance of child-related activities and sports amenities kept everyone entertained. The atmosphere was incredibly calm and quiet, offering a perfect retreat. The easy accessibility, coupled with the friendly staff, made the experience seamless. The room was not only comfortable but also well-equipped with fantastic amenities. Overall, a delightful stay that exceeded expectations. Highly recommend this gem!

The heater was not working, and unfortunately, we only discovered this issue when the reception was closed, so we were unable to seek help. While this is not a significant concern, I reckon that if the front desk staff had been available, they would have assisted in resolving the matter.

The property was in line with what is shown on Booking.com website. We booked a studio apartment but were pleasantly surprised to find we had been put in a 2 bedroom apartment. As our stay was only an overnight one we did not avail ourselves of the facilities on offer (pool, tennis court etc) but could see that the property is well maintained.

We couldn't really find a fault during our short stay. The only thing that we could mention that in the shower of our unit (No 6) the exhaust fan required cleaning. This is only mentioned as information for the property owners.

Kids loved the pool. Nice that we had a unit that was well spaced out with parking at our door. Lovely grounds and generally well maintained. We only stayed one night this time. Barwon Valley Lodge could easily be used as a base from which you can explore the area. We plan to return and stay a few nights to do just that. We got a good night's rest, the beds were comfortable and the unit had all we needed. A pleasant stay.

Some areas in our unit could benefit from a deep clean (tops of things and window sills as some were hard to open/close). Overall, not too bad though.

Really great value, spacious accommodation, more like a house than a lodge, with everything you need included for a short or longer stay. The location is perfect, close to the main road, yet quiet and feeling more like the countryside than actually in a city. The staff are all really friendly and helpful, we will be returning soon.

N/A

It's like having your own home on a well-kept park with a swimming pool and kids playground. The people running it are lovely and have been very accommodating. The apartment had everything I needed, was clean, and the wifi was excellent. Air conditioning in all main rooms is a bonus.

Nothing

Our second stay, super value, getting a house rather than an apartment in such a quiet location, yet handy for the city. The kitchen was so well equipped with a full size gas cooker that we were even able to cook a Sunday roast for 4 of us. Ideal for short or longer stays.

Having to leave!

The accommodation was clean and well-equipped. The room was spacious and comfortable for our family of 6. There were lovely recreational facilities nearby.

Perhaps a little more milk provided for the tea/coffee - not really enough for 6 people to have before we did our grocery shop for the stay.

A very welcomed greeting after a long day of driving. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The apartment was particularly well equipped and very comfortable for 4 adults and a baby. The kitchen and laundry facilities were excellent. The grounds around the unit were beautiful, offering a pool, hot tub and tennis court. We would stay here any time.

Everything was fabulous.

One of the best stocked kitchen that includes multiple oven trays, a grill and dishwasher. The washing machine and dryer were in the apartment as well. The parking spot is just outside the apartment. Check in and out were seamless. Plenty of nearby amenities including a supermarket that’s 3-mins drive away.

Running all the amenities at once may cause the electricity to trip - that includes the water heater which may cause someone to bath in frigid water.

My new favourite place to stay. The apartment is well thought out, spacious, cosy, relaxing, great beds, and amazing value. An absolute must if visiting Geelong, close to everything you need. I can't wait to stay again. I especially loved the bathroom had a bath to relax in, and if warm weather there is a pool, spa, tennis court, kids playground and BBQ area in the outdoor area. Highly recommend 👌 👍 ❤️
