Top-rated for comfort — guests feel right at home here.
Unwind at Sri Menanti, a stylish two bedroom cabin located on Impiana, a 71 hectare Black Angus cattle farm. Relax and take in the majestic views toward Apollo Bay, across the Bass Strait and hill tops of the Otway Ranges.
Sri Menanti is only a 10 minute drive to the beach and Great Ocean Road and just 15 minutes from the cafes and restaurants of Apollo Bay.
Explore the farm and its native inhabitants, abundant bird life, meandering cows and resident (grunting) koalas.
Sri Menanti boasts exposed timber cathedral ceilings, a fully equipped kitchen, wood fire heater, air conditioning, ceiling fans, comfy couches with beautiful soft furnishings and scenic bay window. Lighting has been designed to add to the ambience and a sense of peace.
You can watch as ships pass by, cows munch and clouds roll in and over the Otway Ranges. If you’re fortunate Kevin, or one of the other resident koalas might be spotted (and heard grunting) up a gum tree near your back door.
Both bedrooms have comfy queen size beds with quality linen, plenty of storage, ceiling fans and views toward Bass Strait and Apollo Bay.
The kitchen offers plenty of bench space, a ceramic electric cooktop and oven, full size fridge/freezer, good knives, pots, pans glasses, plates and cutlery etc. A dishwasher will be installed in the future.

About the host
Hosted by Samantha Varian
Hi I'm Sam, I was born in Tasmania and moved to the Mainland when I was 23 in 1990. You can do the math.... I love nature and live in the Macedon Ranges, similar to Skenes Creek but not as breathtaking and wild and with no ocean in sight. My artistic passion is ceramics, drawing and painting. In support of the arts I have been asked to manage Sri Menanti, it is an incredible property which the owners generously wish to share with others.
Why they chose this property
Sri Menanti offers spectacular views of the ocean from the hilltop, to watch the weather roll in and be surrounded by nature is rejuvenating for the soul. It is the countryside and beach living in one.
What makes this property unique
The views are just incredible, 10 minutes from the Great Ocean Road, spectacular beaches, 15 minutes from great coffee and restaurants.
