Fantastic stay, amazing food, super comfortable, and warm and helpful service!

8.0

Amazing setting, spectacular restaurants, amazingly personable service, the bed was like a cocoon and incredibly comfortable, amazing shower with super hot water… lots of positives!

The bathroom could have a heat lamp to warm it up - it was freezing… though the shower did make up for it. Also, would be useful (but not critical) to have a side shower instead of the (or in addition to) the rain shower, and just having one EV charging bay operational was a bit inconvenient as we planned to charge there… but ended up using the nearby Evie spot.

View to die for!

8.0

The view was spectacular! The meal at Parker St Project was spectacular (I recommend the lamb shoulder)! The bed was super comfy and I loved the selection of pillows.

Being charged $190 for the hot tub. Given the price of the rooms, I think this is unreasonable.
