Mantra Lorne
Mantra Lorne is the beloved coastal town’s only true beachfront resort. Sightseeing comes easy when you’re based here, a mere 15 minutes’ drive from the charming Erskine Falls. You’re within easy reach of other unmissable stops along the Great Ocean Road, including the Twelve Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, The Grotto, and Bay of Islands. Lorne’s main shopping and restaurant hub is also a short walk away. The resort is located an approximately 90-minute drive from Avalon Airport (AVV) or a two-hour drive from Melbourne Airport (MEL). Airport transfers are not included in your package; please plan accordingly.
The Resort — A 150-year-old oceanfront property with modern flourishes
Lorne is one of Victoria’s true coastal gems and a stay at Mantra Lorne — the only beachfront property in the area — is the best way to explore this beautiful region at your leisure. Cruise down the Great Ocean Road to see famous landmarks including the iconic Twelve Apostles, Port Campbell, Erskine Falls, the Great Otway National Park and much more. Rugged cliffs, spectacular surfing, and untouched beaches are delightfully paired with upscale dining, boutique breweries, and fresh local produce, for the perfect escape.
Surrounded by 12 acres of lush grounds, Mantra Lorne is built around the heritage-listed Erskine House, the oldest guesthouse in Victoria. Beautifully appointed rooms and apartments are complemented by high-end onsite facilities: take a dip in the indoor heated mineral pool and spa, sweat it out at the state-of-the-art fitness centre, pick up a racquet and head to one of the four tennis courts, or practise your swing at the golf putting green.
Spend your days chasing waterfalls, following mossy pathways through verdant forests and leaving footprints in golden sand – all from Mantra Lorne, your launchpad into the natural wonderland of the Great Ocean Road
