The coastal view was very good but the rest was average. We didn't get the room that we booked (common problem apparently) and neither Expedia nor the Bluff seemed to care. Of course it cost extra. Staff service was non-existent, and the accommodation was a bit remote out of Victor Harbor. Messy roadworks made for a disappointing stay. I won't be back.

Nice nature environment and easy walk from the property to The Bluff. We had a nice room with the ocean view, but would be better without the two unattractive palm trees restricting the view.

I was told because I booked this though an external website. I was given a room without a view and pretty 2nd rate at that. Bed uncomfortable.

Lovely quiet spot, with superb views over Victor Harbor. We loved that we could walk 2 minutes for a meal. Perfect getaway for us and excellent rates.
