What Our Wonderful Guests Have To Say
Thank you for your wonderful reviews and kind words. We’re truly grateful to be here, and it’s a joy to share this place with amazing people like you.
The family recently stayed in a Bush Camping site for 2 weeks across New Years 2025/26, and it was some of the best we've done outside a National Park. Kat at the team in the office and across the park are exceptional - nothing is too much trouble, the prices are reasonable, and the location is second to none. All amenities are within easy reach across the entire park, and it was a great base to explore the Otways and surrounding area. We've already booked our next escape over Easter, and can't recommend it enough.
Thanks all for such a wonderful stay - keep doing what you're doing, 'cause it's working!
My daughter forgot to pack her pillow, staff promptly delivered one to our caravan - a really nice gesture and saved our sleep!
We also appreciated the text message reminders about activities like bottle feeding the cows, pizza night, movie night, bush walks etc.
The free 13km bush walk offering from Shelly Beach to Blanket Bay, led by Frank (owner & legend) was a highlight and included transport to/from the start/finish line.
Wi-Fi was limited to reception, which we loved as it encouraged our family to switch off and enjoy the surroundings. There is so much to see and do in the area too! A really wholesome, family-friendly stay. We’ll be back 🙂
Staff were so welcoming and friendly even during the summer holidays, and offered some many activities from feeding calf’s, costal walks etc.
Highly highly recommend anyone stay here!
What a beautiful gem in the middle of nature, birds, koala, kangaroo. Children running, playing and lauging around, loving and embracing the nature.
We loved feeding Daisy and Loki ( the goats), we had a Koala next to our door step, mama kangaroo and baby joy at the back paddock, the birds greeting us in the morning.
We also gave some feedback for few minor things and they were so welcoming on that , which shows great professionalism and consideration of the guests feedback.
We really wish we could have stay much longer. Now I see why my friend is addicted to Bimbi and goes at least once a year! We will be just right behind them with the promise to ourselves to visit Bimbi at least once per year ! Still so much to see and do !
Plus when you read their stories really touches you especially if you are a parent.
Well done to you all for creating such a wonderful space .
Grazie e a presto!
We stayed in one of their retro van, which are equipped with own little kitchen, utensils, pans, plates etc. The double bed is also very comfy and you can see koalas every day just above your van! stunning! will be back
- Spacious and can comfortably accommodate 6 adults
- Kitchen has basic cookwares, utensils, and cleaning items
- Bathroom was clean and had main toiletries you need: shampoo, conditioner, liquid soap, facial tissue, and toilet paper
- Has a lot of amenities and activities to entertain guest of all ages. Too bad it was raining on our 2nd and 3rd day so we weren’t able to explore all of them
We’re highly recommending this place when you visit the Great Ocean Road region.
The stay was made even better by Sophie. Thank you for upgrading us. Also very kind and informative about finding koalas and getting around the park.

On our drive to Apollo Bay we saw a koala and its baby just sitting on the edge of the road (and the mum koala couldn’t move). We contacted Bimbi Park reception who sent one of their staff out to collect the koalas and take them to a wildlife carer in Apollo Bay. This speaks volumes to me about park management as they were letting one of there staff come and collect the koalas whilst being paid by Bimbi Park - they could’ve easily have just given us a wildlife carer number and got us to do it.
The person who collected the koalas was the same young bloke who helped with the pizzas, the fish n chips, made the coffee in the morning at the coffee truck (maybe his name was Nathaniel as the coffee truck is called Nathaniel’s coffee cart) and he was also a koala picker upper 😊 - all round excellent people and park!
The owners clearly love their business, adding improvements but keeping the wonderful feel of the campgrounds.
The amenities are great too, clean, spacious, and plenty of hooks to hang clothes in the shower cubicles.
It's rare to find such a fun, relaxed, campground that caters for everyone with so many different areas to camp and accommodation options.
Having Koala's in the trees is very special too! 🌞
The park is lovely - lots of birds, koalas and some Kangaroos visible from our balcony. A very relaxing place to stay
Facilities were clean and the staff helpful.
The location was close to the things we wanted to see- The light station (worth a visit), the Redwood Grove and the Treetops Fly walk.
Would recommend.
An unforgettable stay.
Whilst cut short by a night, we still had a wonderful weekend away, and will definitely be back sometime in the future.
There is so much to do for the family and especially the kids. Mini golf, rock climbing water playground and a standard playground. Oh and don't forget to grab a bag of feed and give the cow, sheep, goats and chickens a feed. Keep a eye open above the goats to see koalas.
Great cooking facilities well enough for everybody and well kept and very clean. And if your so inclined brings some marshmallows as each site has its on fire pit ( wood is available to buy or you could go collect what you can find in the local area.
The only letdowns was the beds that were a bit lumpy/hard and the wifi being only available at the office area (we didn't have any reception on the grounds at all)
We also appreciated the help of the park staff to provide us with directions to different places of interest and hiking trails.
Finding a koala outside our cabin every morning was a great way to start the day!!
Bimbi Park is certainly well situated to explore the beauty of the Otways and we would highly recommend the park to anyone looking for a great, relaxing time away.
The facilities were great!
The owners were lovely.
Our kids loved all the activities to do around the park and loved getting up close to the Koalas and the beautiful native birds!
We enjoyed a lovely walk from the park to the Cape Otway lighthouse station.
It's been one of our favourite parks we have visited so far! Highly recommended staying at Bimbi Park! We will definitely be back.
we had the double room en-suite cabin— super luxurious! staff were extremely welcoming and the grounds overall were very well kept. the goats are also super friendly!
