Riverside Ocean Grove Motel and Cabins located on Wallington Road changed ownership in April 2017, bringing Elise, Michael and their four children to Ocean Grove.<\/p>\n
Michael, being from an Italian background, grew up in family businesses and knew he would one day like to pursue this same path.<\/p>\n
Prior to motelling, Michael was an IT Engineer for ASIC in Melbourne\u2019s CBD.<\/p>\n
Elise spent six years studying at university qualifying her in children\u2019s services and Primary\/Secondary teaching, she has a passion for special needs teaching which she still continues to further her knowledge in whenever she gets a chance.<\/p>\n
Elise and Michael relocated from Apollo Bay, where they owned their first motel for seven years.<\/p>\n
Keeping with tradition, they wanted to continue owning and operating motels but just as importantly raise their children in a country setting.<\/p>\n
Ocean Grove seemed a fantastic choice, bringing both country and the coast together.<\/p>\n
Transitioning into a new community can be challenging, but it seems Olivia, 10, Jack, 8, Harrison, 6 and Holly, 4, have adapted to their new life fabulously.<\/p>\n
Elise and Michael couldn\u2019t be any prouder.<\/p>\n
Despite the demands of a 24\/7 business, Elise and Michael have given their children every opportunity to be involved in the Ocean Grove community through football, dance, music, swimming and gymnastics and plenty of beach time.<\/p>\n
The couple are achieving great things with the motel and continue to grow and improve the business.<\/p>\n
Their commitment is evident, to each other, the children and the Riverside Ocean Grove Motel.<\/p>\n
Their drive is to provide the highest quality service, terrific atmosphere and a place that people will return too and speak highly of for years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
