It was lovely to be close to the main street and Serafino itself is beautiful. The reception was not so friendly and a bit awkward. Made us feel a little uncomfortable. The lady hosting the wine tasting was beautiful and friendly and very knowledgable. The cockatoos were super noisy at night and early morning. If you want a sleep in, you will not get it here. Not Serafino's fault obviously . Just a warning for others that may want peace and quiet.

A pleasant short stay.

The staff were very welcoming. The room as expected is "motel style" with parking at the door. The room itself was clean and reasonable in size. The king bed was very comfortable. We had lunch in the restaurant and it was truly excellent. We were also granted a complementary wine tasting voucher for two. We will stay there again.

This may need to be upgraded to five star but will have to wait until the next time we stay there as this trip was essentially just a sleepover as we did nothing but sleep overnight. We did however manage to lock ourselves out of our room within 5 minutes. The staff were wonderful during check-in and just as wonderful getting our door reopened. While the room was basic everything was clean and comfortable. Looking forward to our next stay.

Clean, spacious but not offering the typical motel ammenities ( though spa bath in Deluxe rm was good). Rather dated with noisy aircon. Dark rm in winter but surrounds outside were spectacular and complimentary wine tasting, well worth the stay.

Serafino was a comfortable option for our overnight stay in Mclaren Vale. The room was large and the bed was huge and comfortable. The motel style room was clean and in good condition, however a small kitchenette with a microwave would have been handy. The restaurant was not open the night we were there and Serafino is a little out of town, so we walked 20 minutes to a restaurant in the evening.
