In rosebud to visit the hot springs for some R&R. Saw this not far from where we were staying and also being a hotel manager thought it would be worth a visit. Quick find and log signed. Only one could not help any of the TBs on their quest so took none. Found with Mellow2 as the get away driver.

Taking a well earned no kids weened away with Operator & the muggle other halvesa trip to collect snacks & drinks was needed, so of course a stop off to grab a cache was definitely in order. After spotting he likely hide from the road, the logbook was quickly in hand. TFTC!

Find # 8,836 for me on 21 May 2024 at 3:45pm. The weather was Broken Clouds 14C 66% 6 m/s . Found while having a holiday with some friends and PamJ at Boneo. We were bike riding, and doing other touristy things, and caching where we could. This was a very nicely engineered cache. It was in good condition and very well executed. I'll give it a fav point. Thanks AussieGuy007, for giving back to the game.*Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*

Enjoying a few days down in Rosebud, so I took the opportunity to search out some caches.
This was a nice quick find on a weekend with no one about. I don't cache enough to warrant taking a TB, but I signed the log in this well made hotel.

Brilliant idea & well done. Unfortunately there were no visitors to collect & move on, until I just left one. A favourite from me for the idea. Tftc

Always disappointing to find a hotel where the guests listed are not present Sad And to top it off, I planned to drop some guests off, but let them at home today.
 
26-May-23
Found because of the hint. I wasn't quite looking there! Thanks
 
21-May-23
Down on the peninsular early today for a walk and to seek out a trad for the day

Neat little hotel, grabbed chica, will they & get her to a hotel near an airport to try & get her home. 18 years on the road, she must be getting tired. Tftc
 
19-Apr-23
Nice easy find at night time with no one around.
Unfortunately only one of the listed trackables was there (the doll). Didn’t leave or take any as those I have on board will already be travelling north.

Thanks for placing the cute little hotel. The seperate levels for each destination is a great idea.

We are visiting the area on holiday from Tasmania, and returning on the ship tomorrow so we stopped by to pick up any travellers lodging at the hotel who might like a ride to Tassie. Several accepted our offer and will be delivered to various locations in the island state next week. Quick easy find. Left a 1943 halfpenny. Thanks for providing such well organised accommodation for travellers.

Traveling with UncleTom3 on a family holiday at the nearby resort. Got the Geo-cruiser repaired so able to go caching again. Sneakily approached GZ after the business had closed for the day, then accidentally sounded the horn on the cruiser to alert everyone we were here. Doh! Easily found the cache - very well made and organised. Convinced a Lego Santa TB to tag along for a while. TFTC
 
25-Apr-22
What a well kept hotel! Knew exactly where to look, we have dropped off a trackable we found yesterday from the Netherlands. It's a big trackable so have left a note explaining which state it would like to visit next as I could see from its map its done a thorough tour of Victoria for a few years! Tyftc!
 
25-Apr-22
We are the taxi service today to help trackable 'Kloosterman' to its hotel. We found him lost out in the elements yesterday, and logged him to find his mission. Lucky we knew where Kloosterman could go next...Hotel Rosebud. This trackable us a big unit, and couldn't fit in a normal room, so left it in the penthouse suite, with a note asking to be moved on interstate please. Happy travels.

Picked up traveller 'Penquin at Large' to take on a geotour.

Love this one. Wish there could be more caches like this to allow swap of bugs. Took one to travel in VIC.
 
27-Mar-22
A lovely blue skied mild autumnal day, just right for a trip down the peninsula.
Been a while since I have been here, but always a nice walk to Bushranger's Bay.

Off the selection of freeways, and this was the first cache I came across.
I didn't realize it was a TB hotel until I opened it.
Dropped off a TB and a coin to continue their journeys.
Fortunately it was all quiet around here on a Sunday morning.
Thanks, Robmc.

Dropped of my little girls dog tag, hope she gets to travel!! Thanks to the owner

Loved this cache, and kudos to the business owners for allowing it to be placed here. Dropped off a large plush kookaburra. He wouldn't fit any of the boxes so is guarding contents carefully. He can go anywhere and his goal sheet is attached. Picked up TB that wants to travel in VIC. TFTC

Was out this Christmas morning looking for a place to drop off a Santa trackable. When plan A had been muggled, plan B became returning to the Rosebud Hotel and placing him here. I debated with myself about which container to put him in, overseas being desirable, but settled for Victoria and the East Coast. Good luck Santa, enjoy your travels. Thanks for setting up a cool cache to set trackable out on their travels.

After finishing my work Christmas party, I had some time to collect a few geocaches that interested me. But more than that, I needed to see the ocean, hear the waves and smell the sea salt. As such I choose down near Blairgowrie for my Friday afternoon geocaching hunt.

Last cache of the day and already running late, but wanted to collect this one because it is a Large Geocache. Discovered it in the 3rd place I looked and was able to open it quickly. I grabbed the only TB in there and dropped one a Deadly Duck TB. As I was returning everything someone stopped to open the gate and asked if everything was OK.

Thanks for the cache Aussie Guy 007

Wanted to find a large container on our peninsula expedition, so we headed into the estate to grab this one.

We were relieved to find the shop owners knew what we were up to, and chewed the fat a little before heading off. Thanks for the adventure.

A day out and about with Bogonghazy on the Mornington Peninsula.
A great idea with the different containers for different states. Didn't have any TB's to drop off as they are not really my thing. Log book signed. Thanks

We have set off for a trip in a converted Merc Sprinter to see if we can do the whole work while on the road caper. While on the trip, we have several caches we want to tick off the list to be eligible for a few challenge caches. We love Trackable Hotels, and we love large caches. We found this cache quite easily and entered the required code, and soon signed the logbook. We had a few of the trackables in our possession have a visit then we were on our way. We did not see any of the trackables listed as being here, in residence. Thank you for this cache AussieGuy007

What a fantastic cache. Love the organisation inside and a very clever idea. Dropping off a travel bug and possibly collecting other one. TFTC

After visiting a friend nearby I decided to grab some caches including the jack speak trail which I had solved long ago.

Thankfully this isn’t a quarantine hotel! Everyone looked to be enjoying their stay so left it as it was.

Thanks AussieGuy007 for the cache.

This one has been on the bucket list for some time. Whilst holidaying in the Mornington Peninsula we came out to visit the hotel. We brought an ‘award a favourite’ trackable, which we dropped for a stay at the hotel. We took a travel GPS trackable which we will take on an adventure and discovered the other 5 trackables that are in there. We then had a look at some treasures in the shop. Maybe this kayak would be useful for some high terrain caches! Thanks for creating and maintaining this intriguing cache.
