Portarlington Grand Hotel
Established in 1888, this charming seaside hotel is the Bellarine Peninsula’s heritage jewel. The century-old facade houses a spectacular modern refurbishment, paying homage to the hotel’s history as a seaman’s reprieve while offering the highest standard of luxury.
Portarlington is a region famous for its seafood and award-winning wine – don’t miss out on sampling the renowned produce onsite. The Atrium, a neighbourhood pub frequented by locals, serves fresh favourites like locally caught fish of the day. The Bistro takes it up a notch with signature Portarlington mussels, and local Bellarine distillers, breweries and wineries champion a thoughtful drinks menu at the Front Bar.
Just over an hour’s ferry ride from Melbourne, Portarlington Grand Hotel couldn’t be better poised for exploring the peninsula. Graze with a degustation board at Bennetts on Bellarine winery, sample award-winning drops at Jack Rabbit or soak up panoramic vineyard views at Terindah Estate.
