Host Andrew was very welcoming and had plenty of good information regarding Great Ocean Walk. We stayed in the Fiji cabin with views over hills and down towards the 12 Apostles. Canin included a spa bath which was a welcome inclusion after a hard days trekking. Food was top notch as well

Drew and Maria made us very welcome after a couple of long days walking the Great Ocean Walk. Very helpful and welcoming and we were very well fed (particularly the puddings!). Loved the view and the birds and kangaroos watched from the veranda.

My husband and I really enjoyed staying in the Fiji Cottage with its AMAZING view complete with spa! The cottage very comfortable and we had everything we needed. Drew and Maria are warm and friendly hosts who, as part of our package, fed us very well! They are ocals who love where they live, offering lots of knowledge that helped us greatly on our hike. An awesome experience all around :)

We stayed here for two nights during our Great Ocean Walk. Drew was the perfect host (I'm sure Maria is, too, but we didn't meet her), offering a very warm welcome. His local knowledge, generously shared, made our stay and walk even better. In fact, the cottage was so lovely, we skipped a day of walking to sit on the balcony, savour the stunning views and completely unwind. The only sound was a fabulous chorus of birdsong. The cottage was spotless and had everything we could possibly need, including a jacuzzi. The meals, brought to the cottage by Drew, were absolutely five-star. We'd definitely come back!

We stayed here for several nights while walking the Great Ocean Road. Drew was so helpful and his local knowledge was invaluable. The food was amazing and the facilities were perfect. The view was spectacular. Also keep an eye out for local wildlife which was a delightful treat.

Southern Anchorage Retreat was an ideal location to use as a base for our GOR walk. Set in amongst the gums, the cabin had a beautiful view of the hills and ocean and everything that you need. We particularly enjoyed the big front deck, spa, and Drew's incredible local knowledge and advice. He was really easy going, helping us with our program (even our early starts!), shuttling us to the best starting points. Thanks so much Drew for making our walk experience a perfect one!

We stayed at the Fiji Cottage in January 2022. It was an absolutely perfect stay. Stunning views across the valley. Soaking in the peaceful atmosphere at sunset while listening to the kookaburras was something very special. Drew was very helpful and provided very handy tips for exploring the local area. He helped us immensely by letting us know the optimum time for exploring the Marie Gabrielle and Fiji anchors at Wreck Beach (just a few minutes drive from the cottage; well worth the visit if the tide/swell conditions are right) - which was a big, bonus highlight for our stay. We had such a great time at Southern Anchorage Retreat - it's given us a lifetime of treasured memories. It really was the perfect base for exploring the 12 Apostles and Otways. Thank you, Drew and Maria!
