There is not one thing that they could do better
3 June 2017
We had the pleasure of a 3 night honeymoon package. There is not one thing that they could do better. Everything was catered for perfectly (I.e. Spa products, firewood, chocolate, coffee, candles etc.) The food is magnificent and there’s a lot of it. The cabin itself is just beautiful. We stayed in Satinash. The spa, fireplace and outdoor shower is such a pleasure. You’re in complete privacy. We saw 2 people in 3 days – that was only because we went out for a walk. It was the perfect get away and romance overload! I will definitely be going back. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Nothing short of INCREDIBLE!

An absolutely stunning place of serenity, privacy, beauty and relaxation. We came here on our honeymoon and had the honeymoon package. We also received an upgrade, to the mountain view lodges and the property were absolutely stunning. The rooms cosy and relaxing with warmth, fireplaces, spa, comfy beds and lounge. The dvd library range, board games, orchard and walking tracks meant a great balance between doing things and sitting back and enjoying the views. The food too is delicious and generous and the staff were friendly.

Fabulously romantic

We stayed 3 nights in the Cedar lodge, celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. The isolation and privacy was amazing, making us feel like we were the only people in the forest. The staff were fantastic, with an immediate response to a concern about the pool, whilst also being considerate about not intruding on our privacy. The lodge was very well equipped, with everything required for a luxurious stay. We would love to return one day to celebrate another special occasion.

This place is now my favourite place in Australia! My partner and I got married here on April 22nd!! Could not have gone any better!! Staff were amazing setting everything up, as well as coordinating everyone and everything that we needed, and our Glass Terrace Bungalow Pandorea was just beautiful.

The gourmet dinner hampers and breakfasts each morning were great. The views out the room, the orchards, our wedding site were just serene.

Can’t thank you guys enough (Mark and the team) for everything. Will be back sooner than later.

Thanks

Finally the 5th star for making our stay one we will never ever forget! Everything was done for our comfort & pleasure. It amazing what you did for us and my special proposal was done so perfectly, it was only what happens in fairytales, and your team & my fiancé made that all come true !
Our catered dine in food was delicious from breakfast, dinner & dessert and didn’t disappoint for every day we stayed!

We also loved the hike to the rock pools, hammocks & glow worms it’s such a dreamy place.

And to top it all off the above and beyond secret service you went through for a special proposal that will always mean so much to us. It was like a true fairytale and we can’t thank you enough.

We can’t wait to come back! Thank you so much once again – it is definitely a special piece of earth we will highly recommend !!! Xx

A proposal I will never forget
3 April 2017
My fiance booked the Byron room for 2 nights as a surprise. When we arrived at dusk, the room was filled with candles and rose petals, and the dinner table was set up with a bottle of Moet on ice. He proposed to me here and it was the most amazing, private setting I could have imagined.

The best thing though is that we then had 2 days and 2 nights to enjoy this beautiful retreat. The villa is completely 100% private with stunning views. The double bath is wonderful, as was the private heated plunge pool.

We had all our meals delivered so we didn’t need to go anywhere and they were each spectacular.

It was a rainy weekend so we only did part of the walks, but what we did we enjoyed – and we’re determined to visit again and finish the walks on a drier day.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Exactly the type of romantic spot to escape everyday life and just enjoy each other’s company and nature. Cannot wait to return soon!

Expectations Exceeded <3
24 March 2017
Our trip to Crystal Creek was beautiful but, unfortunately, ridden with obstacles that day. We had made it through 4 extremely flooded roads, only to be caught at the bottom of Booka Rd, unable to get past a raging, overflowing bridge. We were stuck at the bottom of this road for about 2 hours, and started to feel disheartened as the skies were getting darker, thinking that we may not make it and will miss a day of our booking, but the management team regularly checked up on us via phone calls and assured us that we will be okay and that no matter what, they will get us safely to the retreat as soon as they could. And that they did.

Mark from CCRR came down in a 4WD and rescued us and another couple. My partner & I were already so grateful being rescued, we didn’t expect, but also received an upgrade, which was very sweet, but it wasn’t the upgrade that exceeded our expectations, it was the hospitality and service. You can really tell that the staff (Mark, in particular) were genuinely caring and wanted to make our stay as comfortable as possible, and not once did we feel like we could’ve been a bother. This was one of the best service we have encountered.

Everything exceeded our expectations. The set up is amazing; from every single room and amenities in the bungalows, to the recreation room filled with many intimate couple-ly things to do and borrow, to the well marked out walking tracks that led to amazing waterfalls and glowworms. So much thought has been put into this entire place. We felt that not a single detail was missed.

We will definitely be back again one day! :)
