3/5 because we had to kill 3 cockroaches in our first hour there. They were coming out of the dishwasher and we had to stuff a towel to keep them from coming. Definitely something the owner should address. I understand it's a nature reserve and you will get some bugs but to have the cockroaches coming like that is not normal. Also, it would be good if there was a fan in the bedrooms.

The environment was beautiful and quiet with no road noise which allowed you to hear the lovely sound of local bird life. We feel this property was once upon a time a little slice of luxury. While it seems to be still priced for luxury, it’s a little tired and very dated. Blinds and bathroom grout were mouldy, the furniture lacquer was sticky, the kitchen cupboards had a funky smell, the mattress was not the most comfortable and the kitchen utilities are in need of an update. The owner advised on arrival that the previous owners had removed a main window blind which meant the morning sun shined directly onto your face in bed when it rose. We wouldn’t have booked had we known this. We simply think it was overpriced for what it offers.

Spa was amazing at night time, looking up at the stars. Possums were very friendly followed us around everywhere & eat out of your hands.

We stayed with our three children for four nights. We were surprised by what we found - a very basic cabin with a drop toilet (not the luxury accommodation and composting toilet that was advertised). Initially, the owners were very nice but things started to go downhill. Beds are very uncomfortable. Since the units aren't cleaned regularly, the toilet started to have bugs, and the smell became much more noticeable. I did two loads of washing...despite the fact that they advertise a communal laundry, the female owner was extremely passive aggressive and locked the laundry door behind me when I left. It remained locked for the entirety of the next day and the next morning. There were a number of families staying at the property and some of the children had broken a fabric thing hanging over the pool and the male owner marched up to my husband and said "I'm pretty sure your children are the ones who destroyed this". It was definitely a group effort among all the children, and the blame doesn't rest solely on us. But, if you have accommodation that children are staying at, you can't blame them for making a game out of something flashy you have hanging over the pool. We felt so uncomfortable that we actually discussed leaving a night early. The beach nearby was wonderful and the setting was lovely. Shame about the owners and the false advertisement of the accommodation.

Perfect, quiet bush land setting with an easy walk to the beach plus access to on site pool and private spa. Would absolutely stay again.

A set of well spaced private feeling accommodations in original rainforest. Wildlife including possums and a large sizers on our path came free.
Very comfortable beds. Good Weber bbq. We made good use of the hot tub. The owners were very friendly and gave lots of helpful travel advice.

Great bush cabin, self contained, secluded enough and private, nice pool, lovely hosts, good water pressure and easy walk to One Mile Beach or quick drive if you have a tent or chairs. So close to shopping, eateries, attractions and other beaches. We were pleasantly surprised to discover camel rides on nearby Birubi Beach and it was amazing costing AUD $30 adults and 25 for children for around 20 minutes, no booking, just show up starts from 10am. Birdsong and welcome visits by the friendly magpies and night visits by the possums, only thing is the bed was quite hard and only a 2 seater couch which we found uncomfortable. Of course there's those pesky mosquitoes, but you are in a bush setting so that's expected but nothing that a spray of Mortein can't fix.

Absolutely amazing trip away - Wanderers Retreat was the most delightful surprise. Our cabin was snuggled into bushy surrounds - close enough to other cabins to not feel isolated, but far enough away that we barely saw or heard another person whilst there. The surrounding nature has grown up and been cleared just enough to make way for safe walking tracks, wide manicured lawns perfect for kids to play, all while enjoying a wall of flowers, bushes and trees. My kids enjoyed the treasure hunt of finding bird baths, possum boxes, and assorted flowers in the little world around them, & we were all thrilled to find a sparkling in ground pool in the middle of all that.
Our cabin was the perfect setup for a family of 5 - clean with just what you need to enjoy a trip away (although having only 4 plates left us perplexed for a few minutes!). I was able to cook meals every night for my family, but still feel on holiday with a dishwasher, spa bath, and nightly possum visitors who excited everyone by being content to nibble at grapes while the kids had a pat.
The owners were friendly and made us feel right at home with detailed and personal directions to local items of interest, an Easter visit, and personally hand walking us to our cabin in the dark upon arrival.
There was NO Optus mobile reception where we were (yay?!) and very little Telstra. Wanderers Retreat gave ungrudging and unlimited WIFI coverage - no phone calls but plenty of recreation time

Had a lovely stay here. 6 nights in s spa cottage. Our family thoroughly out time there. The owners were great, so nice to chat to. Loved thebush setting and the gorgeous possums that visited our deck and back door each night. Our daughter squealed with delight each time she saw them.

We stayed for the weekend in a tree house, a truly unique experience. Clean and comfortable. The extra personal touches (champagne, chocolates, port and bath robes) was really nice. Best of both worlds, The bush and the beach just across the road. Perfect weekend !!

We stayed in the Treehouse. Fantastic, quiet, close to nearby shops and beaches. Had a compost toilet which was actually quite clean, no troubles. Room was a bit dusty and had some cobwebs but was still great. Only downside was the downstairs smelled a bit and had lots of dead leaves contributing to that. But honestly wasn’t bad! Would stay again :)

Our stay was great until we received an email after we had checked out. One of the members of our group was not feeling well the night before, and we had asked for a later check-out so that we could spend a bit more time cleaning up the place after a long night taking care of the. We were advised that this was not possible, and of course we understood. We were rushing to clean up the room and return it to its original state, but as we had just washed the dishes we couldn't put them away since there were not dry, and we didn't get around to cleaning a drainer and a pair of tongs. We were charged a cleaning fee without any sort of warning and even after explaining our situation no leniency was afforded despite the rest of the room being returned to its original state. We were treated with insensitivity, inflexibility and this incident ruined what had otherwise been an enjoyable trip.

I stayed at Wanderers Retreat for a quick 2 night get away with my boyfriend. We chose this place because of the unique cabins and close proximity to One Mile Beach in Port Stephens. Our host Jane was lovely and respected our privacy. She was also kind enough to introduce us to a local koala who had taken up residency in the property.
We stayed in a Spa Cottage which was cosy and had everything we needed. The beach is approximately 7 minutes walk and Anna Bay shops are a quick drive down the road. I would absolutely recommend booking this property if you visit Port Stephens and want to get away from all the tourist hot spots.

This location is uniquely positioned in the tree canopy of a koala habitat.The wildlife is plentiful in such a tranquil setting. Close to the beach and all sorts of water sports as well as all the sightseeing and activities there are to see in Port Stephens. Certainly one of the most peaceful and restful holiday locations ever.

Spent 4 nights at the hotel - fantastic place to escape from everything and relax for a few days. Cafes within driving distance , Nelson Bay approx 10 mins by car.
ECO lodges are a good size.
Would recommend.

We arrived a bit late and weren't quite sure how to check in as the office was unattended, however a quick phone call to Ian sorted us out. Ian and Jane are incredbly hospitable and genuinely seem to love their jobs. Upon walking up the stairs to our treehouse accomodation we were welcomed by a mother possum with a baby on it's back!! This quickly turned to four more possums, a lovely experience (they're so soft!).The spa was amazing, walking distance to the beach and we loved our stay. The Champagne in the fridge with chocolates and Port on the table were the icing on the cake. We will be sure to stay again. PS: Bring aerogaurd
