Geelong Holiday Park

10/10 Excellent

"The park was in a great position, a short drive to Geelong foreshore and Belmont shops. Our cabin was very clean and comfortable, the amenities great and the staff lovely. The only downside was the WiFi wasn't working which didn't worry me but perplexed the Grand children 😁 Would definitely stay there again"

White House in CBD and close to beach

8/10 Good

"Lovely cosy cottage. Everything was great. The only negative would be the distance from town - from the description, we thought it would be closer. Definitely need a car (especially us two older ladies) :-)"

Mckillop Geelong By Gold Star Stays

8/10 Good

"Accommodation is upstairs, above the off-street parking. We had not been contacted on the day of check-in and there is no-one on-site but fortunately I found the phone number on a brick wall at the accommodation. John was very helpful when I phoned him and we had everything we needed to check-in within 15 minutes. We had the 1 bedroom unit at the front, the traffic from the street was not noticeable and it was spacious for 2 people. There was no hairdryer. The furniture is well used but everything is clean and comfortable. The shower has good pressure and hot water."
