Ahoy for Victoria's Apollo Bay

The Rayville Boat Houses at Victoria's Apollo Bay are 10 luxury villas which offer visitors to Australia a real sea change.

They are decorated in a nautical theme and have wooden floors.

Some have cute loft bedrooms, others are villa-style.

Weekend getaways for guests are a specialty of the Rayville owners, who stoke up a blazing fire and serve chilled wine and gourmet cheese.

Weekend packages for couples are $A350 ($415) for two nights.
