For the experience, location, and price, Port Lonsdale Guest House is great. It's not 5-star luxury, but the rooms are clean and comfortable, the shared facilities - especially the outside kitchen and BBQ area - and the care of management and staff are all more than you could ask for. And it was an added bonus to get to meet and mingle with other guests out the back, many of whom we found to be regular returners - always a good sign of a good place to stay. Booking and check-in were contactless and seamless. We have a 4-year-old and booked a family suite of two small connected bedrooms plus a shower and en suite - Miss 4 loved having a bunk bed, that was half the holiday for her! The other half was the guest house's spa pool: she loved the ''bubble water" as well as the pool proper, and could have stayed there all day instead of swimming at the front or back beach. We said she was turning into a sultana. While we were there the management had an arrangement with The Little White Float Coffee Van, parked outside the front door and serving the best coffee, lamingtons and donuts. Hoping it will be back next summer, it really added to the attraction of the venue although we didn't know it was there when we booked. All in all, a great stay at a great price, excellent for families on a budget. Combined with all Port Lonsdale has to offer as a still largely-undeveloped, old-fashioned but friendly, holiday destination, you can't go past it. Thanks Richard and team.
