Views spectacular and room stunning

Booking.com advertised spa room which is why I booked it. Accomodation website said spas aren't available until July due to renovations but booking.com takes the info from webpage so booking.com is at fault for false advertising of the room. Extremely disappointing given booking couldn't be canceled and I could have outdoor spa with a terminally ill husband. This is the second time booking.com has advertised a property as having a spa that isn't functioning. Very disappointed by this. I suggest looking at the actual website before booking as booking.com is not up to date and also in both case more expensive than direct through the hotels

From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent and everything ran smoothly, Sebastian in particular went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The views were stunning and the food was delicious.

Everything exceeded expectations, relaxing, scenic, and well looked after.

Beautiful modern clean and brand new fancy rooms. Super comfortable bed large bed, awesome heated floor, comfortable chairs. Great shower. Great outlook and looks like it’ll be an awesome place to stay when the building works are completed.. The restaurant looks very nice, but we didn’t go there as we had a Gordon River cruise booked.

Not what was promised in the description. The facilities were unfinished. The spa and fire weren’t connected, it was a bit of a worksite out the back where the spa was. The rooms weren’t very private if you had the curtains open, I guess they will fix this when the property is finished. The breakfast option was an added expense. I had thought we were upgraded, but because the facilities weren’t finished I don’t feel like we were😕 They didn’t let us know that we wouldn’t have the facilities that were shared in our booking before we stayed there, I went and asked for the remote control for the gas fire and was told it hadn’t been connected yet 🤷🏼‍♀️

Great location and quite a unique type of place to stay. Lovely view from outside the room. Onsite restaurant was good (but skip the breakfast hamper). Very close to the Hogarth Falls walking track (can highly recommend) and only a minute down the road from the Gordon River Cruises terminal. Despite being in a room not yet renovated it was well furnished (other than the double bed). Friendly staff. Have to do the Hogarth Falls and Gordon River Cruise while here.

Double/king bed needs to be replaced but they are in the process of completely renovating all rooms and believe the room we stayed in is only weeks away from being done (we obviously stayed in a room that hasn't yet been renovated). Luckily we also had a single bed that my wife ended up sleeping on. The $20 per person breakfast hamper is not worth it.

Situated in a beautiful location within walking distance of most town attractions, this place offers a lovely view of the harbor. The on-site restaurant is very convenient, serving delicious food, but be sure to make a reservation as it’s quite popular!

Although we were informed about the renovations, it was still quite unpleasant to hear loud music from the workers while trying to enjoy the tranquillity of the area. Additionally, we were surprised to find there was no lock on the room door.
