THE GOLDEN RETREAT POOL HOUSE

The comfortable bed, the view, its proximity to my friends’ house.

The stairs up to the front door - totally unsuitable for a woman of my vintage! - and the lack of hanging space for clothes.

Compact, but met our requirements. Lovely views over the pool to the rainforest and mountains.

Leeches on the property so beware!

The view from the window at night was amazing , I was given a discount on 2 dogs staying with us for the 4 nights (instead of $240 extra was only $150) great spot close to uki, situated away from everything. It was a very quiet and peaceful place. Very relaxing and so needed.

I thought it was $30 per dog per stay, not per night 😞, my Chihuahuas couldn't get warm even with the heater that was supplied, just no sunlight unfortunately 😔, didn't get to use the jacuzzi as I spent the money on the dog fee. Was offered a free spa when arrived but not able to use all functions.

6 eggs and some pantry items were provided for our 4 night stay for 2 people. It had a pool with views and decent size BBQ. Seperate towels for pool use were provided and we were allowed to use the line to dry them.

Really needs A/C if operating in Summer!! The small fridge didn't really work properly and the food/drinks went warm as I think the cavity size was too small for it to function in summer. Could also have done with sink and a fridge near the BBQ for drinks and food. Maybe look in Gumtree for a fridge? BBQ could of been cleaner. TV could be mounted on an adjustable wall bracket in the corner perhaps as we were both getting a sore neck trying to watch it wher it was. TV could also be better quality, and could have been a SMART TV with Netflix etc... It's tiny speakers were giving me a headache. There was no WIFI/internet acces. A small Bluetooth speaker or HIFI to play some tunes near the pool, BBQ area or in the studio would have been nice. There was a $20 charge for anyone wanting to use the spa which was attached to the pool. A coffee machine would have been nice. The milk carton was alreay opened and half consumed when we got there. Maybe provide some small UHT milk cartons instead?
