    It was absolutely unreal! My partner and I travelled from Geelong, and I won’t lie — the late-night drive to Chris’s Beacon Point Restaurant & Villas was pretty scary at times, but wow… it was 100% worth it. Incredible experience from start to finish. Easily 10/10!

    We had the best night at Last One Inn. We all went for the steak night and everyone could not fault their meal. We all went as far as saying that was the best steak we've ever had! Chimchirri sauce was divine Ambience is always the best! Highly recommend for a fabulous night out, with awesome food and wines Our favourite Anglesea restaurant.
