The staff was top notch! Super friendly while remaining 100% professional. The accomodations were absolutely lovely and pristine. Loved being able to play games at night with family by the wood burning stove in mid July.

Nice, “okay” for infants.
Hotel is overall nice. Surrounding towns/ area is beautiful, great hikes/ walks just a short drive away. No ‘amazing’ views from the hotel property. Villa was tough with an infant (fire places, stairs, low drawers/ microwave). Bath tub was perfect, used it everyday. Loads of Nspresso and tea (free) in the room is a nice touch. Breakfast food is decently healthy and a great variety (cooked to order). Staff was wonderful. Would recommend.

Japanese Soaking Tub
We were only there for one night but it was perhaps the best place we stayed in our weeklong holiday of Fiji and Australia. The details were superb from the jazz music playing in the background, the new Leif bath products, the complimentary sake, the really comfortable bed, the his and hers shower and of course, the Japanese soaking tub (which I think could be a little hotter). The grounds of the retreat were wild and tranquil and we would go back to stay there any time. Also the restaurant and cocktails were really good.

Anniversary get away
30th Anniversary celebrations. Perfect spot. Just wish we had longer there.
Lovely room, great hot tub, delicous dinner and breakfast. We had the degustation with matching wines. The food excellent but thought the wine price was over the top for what was served.
Breakfast choice was also excellent.
Our quiet and spacious orchard villa with its two bedrooms, large bathrooms, full kitchen and delightfully warming fireplace made for an ideal family getaway. The excellent Thai styled Tamarind Restaurant makes dinner a pleasure (although closed Mondays) and the local rainforest walks are a beautiful way to relax and appreciate nature. Only downside was the enormous king sized bedding that wants to swallow you up, disrupting an otherwise peaceful sleep.
