The Empire Retreat must be one of the most beautiful hotels in the world! My wife and I have stayed three times now, and its continues to offer brilliant service in an astonishingly beauitful setting! We stayed in a room with an outdoor shower and a view over the bushland and it was simply magnificent. Can't wait to go back!... more

We are grateful we found this magnificent place. We had an outside suite for 3 romantic nights. All the staff were extremely helpful and hospitable amazed by the friendly but proffesional service , it's just so rare. Can't wait to go back it's a bit pricey but worth every cent. Recommend to anyone wanting THAT ROMANTIC GETAWAY. more

We really enjoyed our stay at Windmills Break, beautiful grounds and nice rooms making a very relaxing atmosphere. It is also in a great location toexplore the local wine region, view some great surf locations and explore the caves in the area. Geoff was a great host and the breakfast that is included in your tariff was very nice. Only... more

1st trip looking for some revitalising on my own. Kali knew exactly what I needed and I was happy to be in her capable hands. Rooms gorgeous, and all catered to privacy and comfort. Food and staff always accommodating and friendly, I couldn't wait to return. 2nd trip I took my husband for a romantic weekend away. Both of us... more

My partner and I absolutely loved our stay!!!! The staff welcomed us like old friends and the Lodge was beautiful. Everything was perfect and I couldnt have asked for a more enjoyable place to be. My partner is from NZ and has travelled around Australia and has rated Yallingup Lodge as his most enjoyable holiday in Aus. The food was... more

I recently witnessed a family member marry in the gardens of Caves House, absolutely stunning backdrop for a wedding!!! Bueatufil venue, terrible service. After staying for Australia Day long weekend earlier this year, we were most dissappointed in the loud live music and drunk non-hotel guests. While our room was on the other side of the hotel to the music,... more

The accommodation itself was beautiful and the grounds well laid out. Very tranquil and tastefully done. The resort offered a Private Chef (builder by day chef by night!) which we availed ourselves of and enjoyed a delightful but not exceptional meal. We were left some excellent local bread, organic eggs, bacon, milk etc in the fridge which was a lovely... more

My partner and I stayed at the Yallingup Lodge for three nights in July 2008, and it was fantastic. On arrival, the host greeted us with open arms and warm character. He gave us a solid run through of the Lodge, the rooms, and services offered by the Lodge. Our suite was incredible, beautifully presented with everything just right for... more

We booked a 'romantic retreat' for 3 nights and stayed in one of the three expensive, yet well-appointed chalets. However the service by the owners during our entire stay was terrible. The chalet was meant to be serviced, which didn't happen at all during our stay. Then after we discovered that the lights weren't working in the bedroom, plus we... more

Windmills without a doubt takes your breath away. The retreat spent most of 2007 closed for major renovations and refurbishment and it has really paid off. The rooms are modern, very clean and ultra comfortable. The decor is ultra-modern and the funky leather furniture is very comfy. Eeach room has their own private garden access/courtyard. The bathroom is spacious and... more

We received a very warm welcome from Jeannette on arrival at the Wildwood Valley. My husband and I stayed in the Honeybee cottage. Situated on the side of a small valley with views of the ocean in the distance from the two verandahs. The cottage is beautifully decorated with wooden floors, a very comfortable King size bed, potbelly heater and... more

This was the last place we stayed in WA and it really did feel as if we'd left the best to last. From the moment we walked in on a quiet midweek night and were upgraded to one of the suites, through to leaving four nights later we were royally looked after by Geoff and his team. The hotel itself... more

We first stayed at Caves House 25 years ago when it was somewhat run down. Seashells have refurbished the hotel to its former glory and retained a lot of the heritage art-deco feel about the place. Wonderful location perched about the Indian Ocean with very close proximity to all the attractions of the South-West including the wineries. We only stayed... more

Paid for two nights, unforseen family problems meant I could only stay for one. I offered to cover their out of pocket expenses for the external booking agent if they would allow me to change the extra night for another in July when I would come back and stay for two nights, paying now. I was assured something could be... more

On arrival after a mammoth day of travelling we were initially impressed by the very plush grounds and then reception area. We were given our keycards in a nice little envelope, tramped up a couple of flights of stairs with all our luggage (no assistance offered), to find the keycards didn't work. After returning to reception and back up/down the... more

We stayed in Smiths Beach Resort for 4 nights in late April. We found the service in the restaurant, reception, bar and The Wine Deli to be excellent. The food in the restaurant where we ate breakfast on a couple of occasion and dinner one night was of a very high standard. We booked a standard 2 bedroom Beach Shack,... more

What a fantastic place to enjoy our honeymoon! This boutique hotel has undergone a major refurb making you think it was only just built from scratch. We were greeted by the most friendly staff who gave us a guided tour through the whole property. When we made it to our room it was "amazing" as my wife described it. Out... more

I am sorry this review is rather late given we stayed there in December over the NYE period and it is now April 2008! Quite simply, this is such a find and you will not at all regret staying here. It was such a shame to have to leave because it felt like a home. We stayed in the Deluxe... more
