Our group of friends had a lovely weekend at Vitamin Sea. The house is super well appointed and comfortable, and that view - *chef's kiss*! The house was clean and the instructions were all clear. Thanks for having us! We spent a day on the beach, visited Apollo Bay, and loved the scallop pies.

The photo ops are endless! Every time we visit, it still takes my breath away with what an incredible feat of engineering the road itself is. Views for days, turquoise ocean, whale-spotting out to sea and koala-spotting up the trees. What more could you want!?

Visit here for some of the freshest seafood and fish n chips in the state. You can either buy your seafood fresh or they can cook it for you. The grilled lobster and chips were absolutely amazing!
