The site hasn't officially gone live yet, just finishing some of the minor details, and I am hoping to replace all the photos soon with new ones.
other than that here it is

I only looked at the homepage.

Excellent.
I am impressed with your success with style sheets and positioning. I would used tables because I don't have your skill with CSS.
Looks perfect using Firefox 2 under Mac OS X.
Color scheme works for me.
Easy to read.
Easy to navigate.

Source code looks clean.

Only one question: Ou est la version française pour les Quebecois?

The look and feel of the site are nice. A suggestion is to list “things to do in the area” or “local attractions” That is a great way to begin networking with other businesses and maybe even trading links which will help your SEO efforts. Nice job on the design. Just my 2-cents!

Very nice site.

I also ran a test on all your internal links and none are broken.

Excellent.

Also, I'm in the UK and the site loaded fast. Better than many sites I know in the UK!

Cheers

Mike

Whereabouts is that error?
Is it because you use OnClick instead of onclick?
XHTML does not like capitals when it comes to some javascripts code I think?

Good luck, lovely site.

I love the css work as well. The site looks clean and easy to navigate. In my opinion, your metatags need work. You have too many generic keywords and not enough targeted key phrases.

I agree with everyone - the site looks clean and professional. We build websites for accommodation. I see traffic always goes to Room Pages. People want to know what is in the rooms and see pictures. I would add a special section on rooms.

We also try to attract the long tail of search - so we create extra pages on things like location and attractions. Also, you have conference facilities - you should optomise a page to attract searchs for conference/hotels in your town. I think you need to focus more on keywords and make sure they are on every page.

I'm also fond of Google Maps. Map of the Great Ocean Road They are getting so easy to set up and they can have as many dot points as needed. We have one where the owner marks fishing locations around the area. Watch maps.google.com as a travel portal. Make sure your business can be found there.

You need Live Reservations. People want to see what is available. The want seasonal pricing. They want to book and move on to another task. You need a secure payment system connected to an inventory management process.

Here's an example: Web Reservation System's Demo - Online Availability Enquiry

There are many systems that can do Online Booking. Good ones also manage GDS bookings through Orbitz, Travelocity, Expedia, etc. Some will connect with your front office software and others are web-based. It's really no good making a new website today that doesn't have a point of sale.

Hope that helps,

Mark
