Loved the location,the outlook and breeze in, breeze out check in, check out process. The only negatives we had were the lower than expected quality of the supplied toiletries, no shower caps and general bathroom add ons you get in boutique stays. The Woolworths croissants were a little underwhelming particularly when there were no condiments supplied as well. A little jam and some locally baked pastries would have done nicely. These little annoyances will not deter us from coming back real soon ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EB2138BBB04946C955766BFB33FDF09A5BE640E61649146296047.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Patrick Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacquellen 24 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely adults only unique property.

BUT, the design of the rooms needs addressing. You can hear EVERYTHING from the neighbouring rooms. I came here to escape the city / noise! I wanted to rest, relax and get lots of sleep. The noise from the other guests ruined the whole vibe and also my sleep. Instead of being able to unwind and enjoy the natural surrounds and sounds, all I could hear was their loud conversations etc. I had to listen to music, tv etc to drown out their noise. This place wasn’t cheap either. There was no service eg cleaning, welcome, but I’m assuming that’s due to covid precautions. Otherwise, the eco style was wonderful. Nice bath. Breakfast food in the fridge was plentiful and nice. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was rock hard. Location was great, close to everything and easily accessed from the freeway, 1.5-2hrs drive from Sydney. ##### Claire Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicole 27 Nov 2021 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The view of the room is amazing and it had a lot of space. Unfortunately when we arrived I’m not sure when they did the cleaning of the room. There were dead bugs in the bathroom and a couple of dead spiders on the WC. Also, we didn’t get cleaning in the room, so we had the breakfast included but basically you need to do your dishes and when you are on holiday that is the last thing you want to do. ##### Nicole Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 31 May 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Relaxed, quiet part of the Valley - not to far away. Needed to leave the AC running overnight to keep warm but the afternoon winter sun in the room was delightful. Thanks for the vineyard tips Ian - we’ll keep those between us ;-) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 27 Apr 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place exceeded my expectations, a great comfy place, with an amazing view.

Dog friendly rooms and nice pool onsite. Fabulous views and very tranquil if looking for some peace and quiet. Nice touches like candles and music playing in room when we arrived. Little kitchenette which was handy and breakfast provisions were delicious especially the banana bread. Would highly recommend tonic over the big resorts as more personal and adults only too. Wonderful hosts too who are on site if any issues arise during the stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Isla & Casita Motel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Batehaven-Hotels-The-Isla.h78230201.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sanctuary at Paradise Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jervis-Bay-Hotels-The-Sanctuary-At-Paradise-Beach.h20069732.Hotel-Information) > > [Arajilla Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lord-Howe-Island-Hotels-Arajilla-Retreat.h1052267.Hotel-Information) > > [Desert Gardens Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-Desert-Gardens.h67183126.Hotel-Information) > > [Mantra Twin Towns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tweed-Heads-Hotels-Mantra-Twin-Towns.h1862508.Hotel-Information) > > [Burke and Wills Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moree-Hotels-Burke-And-Wills-Motor-Inn.h978570.Hotel-Information) > > [Samurai Beach Bungalows](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anna-Bay-Hotels-Samurai-Beach-Bungalows-Port-Stephens-YHA.h12456606.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tamworth Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamworth-Hotels-The-Tamworth-Hotel.h18684340.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrigan's Hunter Valley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Harrigans-Irish-Pub-Accommodation.h1662165.Hotel-Information) > > [Snowy Wilderness](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ingebirah-Hotels-Snowy-Wilderness.h4316653.Hotel-Information) > > [Seahorse Inn Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boydtown-Hotels-Seahorse-Inn.h3910114.Hotel-Information) > > [Albury Manor House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albury-Hotels-Albury-Manor-House.h445455.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Haven White Sands](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jervis-Bay-Hotels-Holiday-Haven-White-Sands.h27097344.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [Broughton Cottage - Pudding Hill Farm, Berry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Foxground-Hotels-Broughton-Cottage-Pudding-Hill-Farm.h23586192.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [The Robertson Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Robertson-Hotels-The-Robertson-Hotel.h4580959.Hotel-Information) > > [Oaks Lake Crackenback Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Crackenback-Hotels-Lake-Crackenback-Resort-Spa.h11290088.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [Crystalbrook Byron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Byron-Bay-Hotels-Crystalbrook-Byron.h2650066.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Box Cottage - Tuross Head](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tuross-Head-Hotels-Red-Box-Cottage-Tuross-Head.h30666798.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozzie Pozzie Backpackers](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Macquarie-Hotels-Ozzie-Pozzie-Backpackers-YHA.h25994908.Hotel-Information) > > [NRMA Blue Dolphin Yamba Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yamba-Hotels-Blue-Dolphin-Holiday-Resort.h3103292.Hotel-Information) > > [Bay Breeze Boutique Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Batemans-Bay-Hotels-Bay-Breeze-Boutique-Accommodation.h9307003.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lord Byron](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Byron-Bay-Hotels-The-Lord-Byron.h2646995.Hotel-Information) > > [Idyllic Farm Cottage with Outdoor Bath Under the Stars](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manildra-Hotels-Idyllic-Farm-Cottage-With-Outdoor-Bath-Under-The-Stars.h28102767.Hotel-Information) > > [Tasman Holiday Parks - Merool on the Murray](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moama-Hotels-Merool-Holiday-Park.h9629141.Hotel-Information) ---
