Guest Review


Three friends and I broke our walking trip on the Great Ocean Walk with a stay at one of the Seaside Cottages. A little bit of luxury, hot meal provided, hot shower, bit of telly, comfy bed, hung some wet gear out to dry and set off again in the morning. Lovely!

Picturesque, peaceful, friendly, clean, secluded and best of all…dog friendly!

We enjoyed our stay at Johanna Seaside Cottages – but I think our dogs enjoyed it even more!
So nice to be able to take loved pets. We had two dogs at the time, but we knew that our old boy would not be having many more swims, and he has since gone to ‘doggy heaven’,( which probably looks a lot like Johanna) .
We were very glad to find somewhere that was pet-friendly while he was still able to enjoy it!
We also loved the vegetable garden, and the eggs.
A lovely, friendly place.

We loved our stay at Johanna and will never forget those spectacular views of the crashing waves and surf beach. We had great walks in the day and enjoyed our fireside relaxation at night! If you want to enjoy our rugged coastal environment at its best, and have new laid eggs for brekky, then there’s no better place to go!

We had the most wonderful time together as a family (with 2 kids and 2 dogs in tow). The cottages are very well equipped and the beautiful scenery, wild beach and ambience of the farm were a perfect combination. The vege patch, pool, fruit orchard and fresh chook eggs were a bonus also. We will definitely be back

What an absolutely excellent place to stay for a relaxing time. My wife and I were able to take our dog and spend quality time relaxing and exploring together. Our cottage was equipped with all the comforts of home and with ample room for our pet as well. A place that we will return to again to have another great holiday.

A family favourite of ours for years – we and the dogs fell in love with the place, then our children came along and they love it also! Have recommended it to numerous friends.

Set on a ridge behind sand dunes and only 100 metres to the wild Johanna Beach, the cottages are luxurious in a lovely, understated way. It is the little extras that make this ocean getaway such a relaxing experience. The central farm house on the dairy property offers fresh eggs, vegetables from the garden and a warm indoor pool to enjoy. The host, Joy Evans and her staff are always available, but in the cottages you feel secluded and away from people and everyday routine. And you can take your dog away with you!

Have great memories of my last visit……. being able to take my two dogs was an obvious advantage but the pleasure of being pregnant and standing in the paddocks watching the calves was beautiful. Being able to pat them and spend time with them was a treat that l now look forrward to sharing shortly with my now 2 & 1/2 year old.

We first stayed at Johanna Seaside Cottages with our two dogs in June 1997. It was just what we needed. Seclusion and privacy coupled with a friendly host – Joy, and the wild surf beach to while away the hours. We have since returned on at least 5 other occasions with family members and friends and of course our two dogs (new models). Sometimes we are tourists and go out every day to the nearby attractions, other times we curl up with a book or a movie or a game. The perfect place to clear the head and relax.

Our two doggies had a ball at this beautiful spot. They loved the beach, the cows and the fireplace when dark clouds rolled in. We loved the view, the comfy bed, the yummy food and the great walks. We are sure to revisit this fantastic accomodation when we next travel the Great Ocean Road.

This is a wonderful place for a holiday. We have been many times and have never been disappointed..Incredible views and the cottages are just great, so clean and cosy. Our dogs love it there and the beach is so close.It is not often that you can find a dog friendly place that is comfy modern and completely dog friendly inside and out as well & with a secure yard. This place is just perfect for both 2 legged & 4 legged holiday makers. We will be going back as we love it there.

My family have all had some very wonderful holidays at Joanna Cottages.
We have such happy memories of our times at Joanna Cottages and hope we will have many more!
Such a great place to stay and just relax.
The children love it too and never want to leave. The chooks and the cows are a great source of interest to the children.. especially at calving time.
Joy is a wonderful host and nothing is too much trouble. The cottages are magic with the most magnificent views.

Backdrop of mountians to magnificent wild coastal scenery. The remote location is like a “lost valley” in todays ratrace. Especially to walk in the nearby wild areas where very few people have ever set foot. Owner still has the old world charm, and typical country hospitality.

This B&B is a perfect spot for a special occasion. We spent our anniversary there; enjoying magnificent views over rolling countryside towards Bass Straight, and loving the sense of privacy and protection from the usual tourist bustle of the Great Ocean Road. At the same time, we were conveniently close to the attractions of this awesome area. Our hosts were charming; attentive to our needs but ensuring that we were left to thoroughly enjoy our beautiful cottage and all its charming facilities. HIghly recommended.

The Cottages are a fabulous springboard to the BEST of the Great Ocean Walk . They are wonderfully warm and comfortable with spectacular views to come back to enjoy and relax each night inbetween treking. One of our BEST Annual Girls Treking weekends so far!

Our plan for future holidays is to return to Johanna Seaside at least four time a year. We love Joy , Johanna Seaside and her friendly team. Thanks for a wonderful stay

A magic place to stay. Wonderful views over the valley & of the ocean, welcoming hosts, very comfortable cottage, right in the midst of the Great Ocean Walk.

The family of 4 (2 dogs). Absolutely love the place. Joy the Manager is great. The accomodation is terrific, tranquil and peaceful. The views are superb, The beach only 500mtrs away. Home away from home. Been there 4 times and will soon make it 5. The dogs think it is great and are given 5 paw service. Thanks again.

Just the place for a totally relaxing holiday. We both had a great time, also our dog Elti. She had her 8th. birthday there and wishes to return for her 9th. Thanks to Joy and staff, we enjoyed our time at Glen Tara and were sad to leave after 4 short nights.
