Hotel Empire Spa Retreat

1958 Caves Road, 6281 Dunsborough, Australia – Excellent location – show map

We stayed in the Luxury Villa which was private, spacious and clean. There is a mini kitchenette, bar fridge and microwave - this was helpful for evenings when we planned to stay in and eat. There is also a large spa which was such a treat. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. I highly recommend staying at this place if you want to get away and relax. Also highly recommend the Empire Spa - the treatments were amazing!

Ambience, wonderful staff, quietness, Spa and massages.

The breakfast room was lovely and light. I thought the sheepies on the chairs was a nice touch. The room was not too big which made it comfortable. The spa was the best one I had been to. The massage was great, staff great and facilities 5 star.
