Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room was set up in a bizarre way with a large number of lights in the internal stair being permanently on throughout the night. I presume this was because of safety as the stair, while only 1 step, was 10m wide. This meant the room was lit up like a Xmas tree. It explains why eye masks were provided but here we are in the rainforest and the room is lit. Very annoying.

Staff seemed absent and disinterested On departure nobody at check out. No mention of the restaurant at check in. Lacks soul at the moment.

The bed was creaking all the time. The breakfast was a little disappointing. They don’t service your room until you stay three nights. Having to go to reception to ask for more linen and supplies.
Verified review

6/10 Good

This is the third time we have stayed here. Previous time was probably 5 years ago and we were very disappointed in our stay on this occasion. The fire place is no longer a fireplace and has very little heat coming out of it and there is a plastic remote to operate it. The airconditioning was set on timer so it the middle of night heating has gone off and its freezing in the room. The breakfast you receive is very basic. The furnishings had holes in them. For quite an expensive stay it wasnt worth it and we probably wont return. It used to be so well maintained.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Lovely property and huge room with high ceiling but because it’s deep in the rainforest and going in July, we found it really cold and had to have the aircon on 24 degrees all the time. Breakfast basket was adequate and they catered for my gf option. The avocado orchard was lovely to walk around. It would be better to go in summer when the lack of sunshine in the room would give relief from the heat. All in all good value and very handy by car to Nth Tamborine e shops and restaurants.
