Perfect for a short couples escape. Beautiful and convenient location. Super easy check in. The only complaint we had (if we were to be picky) was there was no bread knife to cut the delicious fresh bread that was supplied. Would absolutely recommend

The bed was terrible, though it was aimed so you could each adjust your side this property is advised as a romantic place to go and you don’t want the separation line down the middle of the beds. It also felt like we were sleeping on a lilo The included breakfast very poor considering the cost you pay. And could use an upgrade to smart tv. Would not stay again or recommend

Nice hotel in a pretty bush surround.

The accomodation was pleasing on the eye. The room was nice and cool on arrival with complementary wine, breakfast food tea and coffee. The hotel was in a pretty bush setting with easy walking distance to restaurants and cafes. Blue Bean Restaurant was very enjoyable with great food for dinner and breakfast and a lay back atmosphere. It was a lovely quiet private spot to spend the weekend.

AMAZING!! Perfect romantic getaway

It's often pictures do not look like the room at all when you arrive and you're left disappointed but for the first time ever our villa looked exactly how the pictures do and everything about it was amazing!!! The spa in the living room, perfectly placed to sit and enjoy a bubble bath with a glass of wine while watching a movie, then relax on the spacious couches that certainly doesn't leave you fighting for more couch space. The bathroom and shower area was also spacious, bed had electric blanket which was great for the cold night. Had all the appliances I needed including nespresso machines, kettle, breakfast for our morning and other condiments. The wood fire place was perfect, and complimented the time spent in the spa and watching movies. We couldn't seem to locate a remote for the tv in the bedroom or work the microwave/oven but no big deal. I would definitely return for a romantic getaway in a heartbeat

Good stay although plenty of bugs.

Kudos Villas - Temple was good. The spa was fantastic although as we entered the room there were plenty of bugs and throughout the night there was a spider that came out which scared the hell out of me. On the ceiling there were little black worms which one fell to the bed which was quiet frightening.
