Wish we could stay longer. We were only there for one evening. We arrived later in the evening and just grabbed our keys in front of the office, which was closed. Not an issue - there was a provided phone/whatsapp number for the staff who picked up right away and was on-site anyways. Loved the new renovations, including the new heating/lighting in the bathroom - welcome features as we visited during winter. Short ~10 min walk to the nearby restaurants, and down the street from the beach. Would...

The villas are on a steep Mountain, at first it was a little scary driving up. The grounds have a beautiful, country forest feeling, and the view to ocean is amazing. You can watch sunrise from bed or porch. There are various types of colorful birds which land on your porch. Overall quite amazing. Only drawback is the distance to the beach, it's not walking distance - and about a 10 minute drive. However if you are in a mountain you can't have everything, and there is still the ocean...

Out of the 2 months we were travelling around Victoria, Motel Marengo was perhaps our pick. No because it was the best (we also stayed in some swanky digs as well which were better quality) but the value for money was good, the place was clean, the people running the place were friendly (and very helpful when we broke down before we had even checked in #nightmare!) and it was a treat to see lots of wild parrots around the place. Oh, and it was a welcome to find wifi that A/ actually worked and...
