Summary: The Otway Nest is located in a rain forest and the drive there was stunning, we arrived and were greeted by a beautiful, modern, and full featured BnB. The heater was on, the home was warm, and small details like having our dogs bowl full of water ready for her arrival was wonderful. A couple of slight disappointments we did have with this stay was a lack of electric car charging (I had no idea I was meant to let them know my car was electric, and there could have been a charge point available if i had) We couldn't sms or call the care taker, we had to email and wait for a reply to get simple questions answered, and when i did try to run an extension cable from a power point to trickle charge my car the power switched off. It was turned back on and they asked me not to charge my car. It was pointed out that Appolo Bay had a charger, so we drove there only to find out it was hidden inside a Motel, and used for customer cars, and both charge points were currently in use. It is quite a drive to get to the stay, and heading to the next destination was stressful, we spent time in the evening trying to plan out where we could charge and how to make it work. Also security cameras were intrusive and not ideal in a private setting, they did not look where we were staying, but even going for a walk in close proximity to our unit we felt watched. We arrived and let our dog sniff around, and was told to pleas stay on our side of the property. Spoiling a possible lovely stay.
