Arkana Motor Inn & Terrace Apartments
The only indoor heated pool and spa in Mount Gambier
About this stay
Families arriving off a long Limestone Coast drive are the obvious fit, because this is the only Mount Gambier stay with a pool and it is both indoors and heated, so the wind coming off the Southern Ocean does not decide whether anyone swims. Rooms and apartments are air-conditioned with satellite television, electric blankets, a minibar and tea and coffee facilities, and there are family rooms and a children's high chair for younger travellers. Guest laundry facilities matter on a long trip, and the large gardens have a barbecue area with outdoor seating. Continental breakfast can be delivered to the room. The town centre is two minutes away by car, Blue Lake six and Blue Lake Golf Course ten, with free on-site car parking that handles a loaded wagon or a trailer.

Our take
The Arkana Motor Inn and Terrace Apartments is a practical stop for road-trippers in Mount Gambier. The indoor heated pool and spa are the highlight, air-conditioned rooms and apartments come with a minibar, electric blankets and tea and coffee facilities, and a guest laundry, large gardens and free parking add convenience. The town centre is two minutes by car and Blue Lake six. A 7.8 from more than 1,500 reviews is fair, so treat it as a comfortable, value-led motor inn.
- ✓Reserve early for school holidays, because this is the only Mount Gambier property with a pool and it books out well ahead.
- ✓Run the guest laundry on arrival night rather than departure morning, so everything is dry before the next Princes Highway leg.
- ✓Order the continental breakfast to the room when you have a long drive ahead, and get onto the highway before the trucks build up.
