For a few days exploring the Great Ocean Road we based ourselves at Anchors Villas, Port Campbell. Booking was easy via their website and contact with the host excellent in all regards. On arrival, we were greeted by Terry who showed us to our villa, explained the facilities, and was a wealth of knowledge on the local area and provided great advice. Villa 1 was ours and definitely recommended as it is the further most on the property, however all have fantastic views. We’d highly recommend the breakfast hamper which provided great local produce and more than enough for the hungriest breakfast eaters. Fully self contained, you can cook for yourselves or take a few minutes drive and avail yourselves of the cafes, hotel and restaurants in Port Campbell. Most highly recommended!

We can't say enough good things about this property and our 2 night stay. The owner, Tanya, takes great pride in seeing that every detail is perfect and every need is met. She made sure we were properly greeted and then was personally there when we departed, seeing us off with a genuinely Australian warmth.
The room was perfectly appointed and spacious with great views across the countryside with the ocean beyond. It really felt like a home away from home. The welcome bottle of wine (and bottle of local milk and other local delicacies) never hurts.

I loved this place and Tanya White, owner/manager, so much, I wish we had stayed more than two nights. The property consists of three stand-alone villas, each with a spectacular view and comfortable furnishings/kitchen, that will make you want to just sit on the patio with a bottle of wine and enjoy the views!
Tanya stocks each villa with coffee/tea/milk, granola, chocolate, and a bottle of wonderful Australian wine and is available with helpful hints/suggestions to make your stay a perfect one.

Cannot recommend a stay here highly enough. Lovely villas and a great place to come back to after a day out sight seeing to relax in comfort. Made to feel very welcome by Tanya with little touches like a bottle of wine, ground coffee, chocolates and some local organic milk. She also took time to let us know all the places to go and see which was very helpful. Very spacious with lovely luxury touches. Very private and quiet which was great to destress and unwind and watch the sunset from your private verandah. Will definitely be back again and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone travelling to see all the famous sites on great ocean road. They are no more than a 10 minute drive so you can often beat the day tripper crowds. A little more in price but will worth every cent. You won't regret your decision to stay here.

Thank you for your amazing detailed review, it means a lot to us that you have taken the time to write this. Victoria is so diverse and the Great Ocean Road trip is one to remember. I just love that the big nature is not far from our door step, yet we are far enough away to be secluded and private away from the crowds.

What an amazing place - the location is superb, just a couple of minutes outside Port Campbell and the property itself is both beautiful and immaculately kept. There were fantastic views everywhere - we were treated to a sublime sunset - and Tanya (our host) could not have been more helpful, including by agreeing to change the date of our arrival when I got that confused. Each room has all the facilities you could possibly need and, as we had ordered a hamper, had more than we could want for a lovely evening snack/treat and a great breakfast.
Can’t wait to return and can say without hesitation that this makes a fantastic base on this part of the Great Ocean Road - we would certainly have stayed a day or two longer if we could have.

Perfect in every way. Tanya is the ideal host: clearly cares that you have a good stay, welcomes you warmly and offers great tips and advice. But above all the room could not be bettered: stunning views, incredibly comfortable and quiet, but also very practical with plenty of space and everything you need for a short stay. Plus some lovely extra personal touches from Tanya like fizz and chocs. Perfect stop in a stunning part of the world

Anchors is an outstanding place to stay. It consists of 3 villas. We stayed in no 1 which was spotless, beautifully appointed and spacious. The bed was comfortable, plenty of towels, well-outfitted kitchen with milk, coffee, tea etc.. The villa had a sleeping area, living room with couch and dining table, and a spacious galley kitchen. And for you coffee lovers, there was a good manual expresso machine that steamed milk for cappuccino. Tanya was a lovely host and gave us good tips about how to avoid the crowds at the numerous local Great Ocean Road sites to see. The views are beautiful (although, full disclosure, there is no water nearby to drop an anchor). We were so comfortable that we dined in both nights we were there. We couldn't recommend this place more highly. If there was a "6" rating available, this would be our first.

OK you've made my day! A 6 out of 5 from 79 contributions wow just wow! Thank you for this amazing review. A little back story to the name 'Anchors' - I moved here 22 years ago and decided to pull up Anchor when I met my husband in this little paradise. The boat on the hill is from the original Motel that I first worked in so there is also that connection.

This accomodation blew us away. Tanya gave us a big warm welcome with lots of tips for things to see and do.
The villa was sparking clean and full of special touches from the gas log fire to the locally sourced products and artwork.
The views are picturesque and the whole experience serene.
We can’t wait to come back!

No words, just emotions... Absolutely outstanding!! The villa we stayed in is sparkling clean, and the interior is worthy of a CBD designer hotel. Everything is modern, clean, sparkling and just marvellous. The best part is the incredible view from the massive glass walls- the green sea of peaceful fields and a little bit of the ocean you can see are the epiphany of relaxation and tranquility
The location is perfect: it’s 5 minutes away from the town and all the shops, but you still get the privacy and the quiet relaxation of the country side- no people, no noise, no hustle. All the major attractions are a short drive away, from the gourmet trail to the natural sights.
Tanya is incredibly helpful and sweet, she made us feel welcome and gave lots of super helpful tips on how to get the best out of our stay. Absolute pleasure to deal with!
Overall, can’t recommend this place enough. 100/10!!
Oh, and the photos don’t even do this lovely place justice- the property looks even better in real life!!

Anchors Port Campbell was a beautiful and well designed accommodation in a peaceful and private surrounding. The view from our room was spectacular. Our kitchen was stocked well for breakfasts and included several locally made treats as well. Tanya greeted us warmly and made sure we had everything we needed for a wonderful homey experience. There was a lot of information available in our unit showing available sights and experiences nearby. Overall a great stay and we would highly recommend Anchors and the area around Port Campbell.
