The breakfast was amazing, they had a buffet and you could also order from their menu. We had a koala in a tree right outside our room! The retreat gave us a pass to come and go freely within the wildlife park, and it is quite expansive. We took a night time tour where we got to see animals we would not have gotten to see during the day, and also took a behind the scenes tour during the day where we saw various wallabies and got to hear about the inner workings of the wildlife park. I would 100% recommend! ##### Tamara Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### maya 20 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities spent one night at the resort, was a very unique experience, highlight was the animal view rooms and tours exclusive to the hotel guest. staff very friendly and knowledgable ##### maya Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### KALAB 21 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Awesome place!

Waking up with the koalas was unreal. We would enjoy time in the lobby looking over the city. I participated in the night tour and saw more animals out and about in the cool air. Really enjoyed our stay and found the buses were convenient for getting out to beaches like Manly and Balmoral. Not only is the food fantastic, the restaurant has an even better view of the harbour! ![Our view from the animal bush room!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/62541548-866c-4033-94fc-8f2eba8ff9b8-1761339138006.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Christian Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Koula 3 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Beautiful clean and knowing all your money going To the animals is amazing I will come back !!

The staff is lovely and very helpful, the facilities and location are excellent. The only downside is the choice for dinner either a restaurant or a very limited bar menu, none of the options were suited for a lively full of energy tottler, but we managed with pizza and salad. We will definitely be back. ##### Andrea Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### eliza 7 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities I booked a animal view room but somehow i can see the harbour bridge in my room as well.
