Lovely view, above rooftops, but could see pier and see sunsets on water.
A retro style of motel, which I like, easy and close car outside room, and can walk to Lorne Hotel for dinner or cafes, and bakery for breakfast coffee and treats.spacious room.

The sheets were clean, but the inside blanket had a stench… obviously not washed in a long while…. Disappointed, uncomfortable
A waste of $308 and no apology

The room allocated was oceanview with a very nice balcony taking in the full view. room was very well kept and contained wine and champagne glasses and everything needed if you prefer to dine in the room.
A delightful lady checked us in and made us feel very welcome. We would have no hesitation in returning to stay in this excellent very convenient motel right in the centre of the town.

I loved this motel! On the corner of the Main Street. Easy walk to the beach and beyond. Only one night, would love to spend longer just to relax. Room was spacious and clean. Staff was friendly.

We had an overnight at Sandridge which for us was a small quiet accommodation en route to Geelong.
The motel is centrally and just behind the main road and seaside village.
Our room was above the reception level, accessed from a side street that had quite a steep incline. The car park was reasonably level but the spaces for vehicles were a bit too tight.
A couple of steps down to a passage and balcony and the room itself.
Well built and very quiet room with good space. We could see a strip of the sea but it was largely obscured by the roof of the lower level. We found it to be just what we needed for our trip.

A very nice property for a one night stay in Lorne. The power went out during some terrific storms but was restored within a few minutes. Kudos to the team that made that happen because otherwise it would have been a cold night in that room! Bed was comfortable but the bathroom was a bit chilly. Plenty of hot water though. It was nice to have a dedicated parking space.
