Asked for early check in and the manager was there to meet us with the key, great service. The one bedroom villa was neat and comfortable and quiet as we had no other guests around us during our stay.

Lovely bush setting and friendly staff, great value for money and well priced for low budget vineyard stay

Kristy

The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was exquisite and the villa was very comfortable and well equipped. Parking was really convenient and the grounds were extensive.

Fabulous views and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. We had a lovely fire in the evening (with help from Jonathan!) and were able to cook a great meal in the kitchen. When the heater didn't work, staff were so helpful to fix and replace so we weren't cold. We loved our stay and highly recommend. Will definitely return!

Run down old , dodgy paint jobs in cabins , crushed hand towel lenolium in shower which had been taped round the floor . It’s not a resort it’s a dump it needs shut down ! Driveway with solar lights on top of bright yellow witches hats and then met with rubbish all gathered near the sign for the resort and then rubbish and boxes at the side of reception which was not open at any point during our stay even on departure .

Accomodation was somewhat dated and looked in need of some TLC. Showerhead was broken and dripping water. Lounge/ dining area was cluttered with miss-matched furniture.
Accomodation was in a quiet but convenient location, close to local attractions. Surrounded by bush there were stunning views into the valley from our small balcony, with even some local wildlife hopping about. Staff were helpful and courteous.

We initially had the Loft room above reception/laundry. It was smelly, lots of insects and very noisy from machines continually on below. We did ask to be moved and they did accommodate. The chalet was much roomier, but i think we should have been in here anyway as booking mentioned kitchenette and none in Loft. Overall the property looked dated and run down.
location was good

It was not very clean. Couldn’t even make a cuppa in the morning as The wires were hanging out from behind the PowerPoint which is very dangerous. There where ants all in the bed which were coming out from behind the bed head. The bathroom door didn’t close properly.
The staff were nice. Good location but that was about all

We stayed in a queen studio. Room was filthy. No housekeeping completed between us and the previous guests, there were dirty cups and rubbish still in the room. We were hesitant to touch anything for fear of catching the plague. No enclosed bathroom. The toilet may as well have been in the bed. Room was noisy right next to a generator. Non existent service from the staff.
It had availability on a busy night.

“Shame on you Bookings .com for having this on your site at all!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 1 night
WARNING THE PHOTOS ON BOOKING.COM WEBSITE DO NOT SHOW THE TRULY APPALLING CONDITION OF THIS PROPERTY. The place was filthy both outside and in. As you drive in there are piles of rubbish and broken furniture lying around. Pool and spa green and unusable. We were directed to a room with no driveway access was across a paddock. We could write clean me in the dirt on the coffee table and the sideboard table! Same on the top of the toilet and the hair dryer. The kitchen sink was covered in dust when you wiped your hands along it. The fridge was dirty The bathroom floor had been painted over the tiles and all the paint was lifting and showing through the tiles underneath! The vanity basin was not connected to the wall and when you turned the tap on all the water leaked out of the drain pipe onto the floor making a huge puddle. The toilet bowl was black and stained & when you flushed the toilet it spayed water up all over the seat and you had to wipe it all down. When you showered the water started then totally stopped for 30 seconds and then started again with a very low pressure. The shower floor was amazing they had cut a piece of black and white lino and half attempted to stick it over the tiles with something akin to masking tape. They had 5 mismatched wine glasses in the cupboard and when we pulled them out to use them they were still dirty from previous tenant with lipstick and wine residue in the bottom of the glasses. The deck was so deteriorated and rotted away you could not step out onto it safely for fear of falling through it or stepping om the protruding rusty nails. The outdoor table on the deck was so filthy it would have been more than a year since it was last cleaned. I would never recommend this place priced outrageously high. I give it negative 5 stars.
Shame on you........ Bookings.com for allowing this site to be on your website. There is not 1 positive thing I can say about this dump of a place! When was the last time you had someone actually visit the site! There is not 1 thing that matches the images on your website even the sign out the front is actually stuck to a shipping container.... and that was probably the best bit of the entire property.

Not enough china and utensils in the kitchen (no cereal bowls) and no containers that could be used in the microwave or oven. The balcony needs to be repaired, decking is old and needs some tlc. The Spa (at the swimming), did not look clean at all, so did not use it. For the amount we paid, per night, some of the facilities need to be repaired/replaced.
The rooms and linen were clean. the swimming pool was spotless. A very quiet location, with lovely views across the valley.

The facilities were substandard and not at all fair for the price paid. There was limited communication when we checked in. Were handed the keys and told what number and that was it - that was it. The property yard was very untidy and unsuitable to be utilised.
Was good location for event we were attending nearby.

“Unfortunately quite disappointing and won't be back. Sorry.”

The entire place was covered in dust. The bathroom had not been cleaned, there was still rubbish in the bin, half filled shower gel containers along the window ledge, a used razor with hair particles in the dish, unclean soap dish and unclean basin. The pillow cases had makeup on them so not sure if stained or not changed. The floor was dirty and a short time in bare feet and my feet were filthy. We couldn't get the TV off one channel. I really appreciated the "upgrade" with no added payment but Vineyard Hill Resort seriously needs a thorough makeover before anyone else stays there. The staff were beautiful.
The location was great as I was doing a wedding just up the road.
