The Great Ocean Road traverses a beautiful section of Victoria’s shoreline with many luxury accommodation options along the way. People visiting the state often drive or travel the road. The road was built as a memorial to Australian casualties after WWI and runs between Allansford and Torquay via Cape Otway. The route is 243kms long and there is a good choice of places to stay either directly beside it or close by.
Options range from basic travellers’ hostels and camp sites to swanky establishments at which guests’ every whims are catered for. Discerning travellers will discover there are a number of Great Ocean Road luxury accommodation options to choose from.
