The location was great! A quick walk to the beach and a short drive to some great walks and beaches.

Great location great staff amazing wildlife really just awesome I loved every min

A lovely peaceful stay in a two bedroom cabin with hot tub. Close to beach and shops not far away. Really enjoyed our stay.

The location and the surroundings were very good. Place was walkable from one mile beach.

Thank you! We had a wonderful family reunion at Wanderers Retreat!

Great location, quiet and intimate. Close to travel anywhere on the peninsular

Everything. The details from the port, chocolates, champagne and eco friendly environment. The spa was amazing.

Our Spa cottage is amazing! We're totally enjoyed the hot tub and spa tub in our Cottage. The hospitality service we received is exceptional from both Barry and the Possum Gang LoL Definitely, we will be back!

Absolutely beautiful location set between all the trees. So peaceful. Close to the beach, sand dunes and shops. Fully recommended

The property was clean and quite hidden from the rest of the cottages. Everything you need to make it a home away from home. Viv and Barry were lovely to deal with and keep the place looking great. Location was fabulous and just walking distance to the beach. Pool was clean and has plenty of afternoon shade. Kids favourite part was the possums and feeding them and of course the pool. Would love to stay again and for longer next time.
