The checkin process was easy. The villa is very spacious and comfortable. The bed was king size and comfortable, bathroom was clean with basic products included. The spa bath was clean and large enough for 2. Overall could not really fault the villa or our stay. Would recommend staying and would return if in the area.

My Tambourine is a beautiful place . Natural Beauty, a high standard of reasonable restaurants bars etc . Overall very friendly vibe . The escarpment retreat was very nice but did lack a few extra touches that would and could have made it special

Pretty disappointing and overpriced stay. No daily room servicing as they property claim its due to COVID... Except there is no community transmission and its clearly a ploy to pocket more profit while still charging the same nightly rate. Witnessed the cleaner of another room post checkout not wearing any PPE, so obviously not concerned about COVID after the guests check out. Absence of room servicing was only advised after check in. Then there was the charge per night to use the fireplace (yes... You read correctly and again, only advised at check in) except if you're staying between June - August. Clearly the high cost per night is simply too little to cover the use of a fireplace that is plastered throughout their marketing pictures. Conveniently for the establishment, they insist on guests attending the breakfast room strictly between 8.30-9.00 am so you can sit there for 40 minutes while the serve on a first come first serve basis. Despite the in room guest guide stating that each room has WiFi, the don't and mobile reception is non existent. We were with telstra in room 6 and had no service at all. The outlook to the spa in the bathroom would be good if the plants in the outside courtyard weren't dead... But fairly consistent with other poorly maintained aspects of the property... Such as missing lights in the garden bollard lighting where we nearly fell down the stairs due to how poorly lit the area was to get to the car park. Avoid avoid avoid.

This was a beautiful location for a romantic getaway. The villas are large and well presented. Breakfast was delicious, freshly made to order and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

The property is lovely and the room was fantastic. Very peaceful and loved the fireplace. Breakfast was scrummy and the main room with the fireplace was very elegant. It would have been nice if it stayed open all day, as an afternoon read by the fire would have been a treat. The lookout is a great view and a great place to sit and watch the sun rise. The wood provided was a little damp, so we ended up buying some wood to keep the fire going all night. A great time of year to visit.

Great facilities for a private getaway. Handy to all the attractions of the mountain but tucked away in a private corner. Breakfast was great, WIFi signal was a bit weak. Overall great.

Great unique grounds & location. Make sure to explore the lawns, gardens & lookouts. Rooms just starting to show their age. In room breakfast would’ve been good but was not an option.

Very disappointed, we thought we might have had a view. Retreat needs some maintenance done on it. Watch out if you smoke cos you are sent to a crappy area in the car park. Wouldn’t stay there again

Amazing mountain villas with the most comfortable bed and a Jacuzzi hot tub. Great for couples!!!! The lady at the front was very helpful, the free breakfast is very filling and the main lobby is the perfect wilderness setting and feel. There are a variety of places to eat and drink from the base of the mountain all the way up, we loved it! Took a wine tour on the mountain with David, ask for him, he is so fun and made it the best wine tour Ive ever been on.

This has to be one of my favourite places I have stayed. It is incredibly beautiful, the grounds are beautifully kept and the gardens are bright green and lush. It is a very relaxing place to stay. Breakfast is delicious, with fresh ingredients. My only criticism is the room we stayed in had no full length mirror and the bathroom mirror is up high. I was attending a wedding and unable to look at my outfit past my chest. I would defiantly recommend this place to friends and family wanting a peaceful break.

Amazing. On arrival the meet and greet was lovely. The owner went through a map with us and explained all the locations for wineries, Resturant and cafes. The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The environment surrounding the villas was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. The breakfast, which is included in the accommodation cost, was absolutely delicious - 10/10 and I love breakfast - it’s my favourite meal. Will stay here again for sure! Next time in winter so we can enjoy the fire!

Absolutely love The Escarpment Retreat! We had an amazing 2 night stay, with the weather being absolutely perfect for what we wanted. Cold and rainy, so perfect to sit by the fire, and enjoy the beautiful room and surroundings. The gardens are amazing. The resident gardener has really done an amazing job. The view is to die for! Breakfast on both mornings was great. Only suggestion would be to have the option of your breakfast in your room, rather having to go to the dining room. Overall, a perferct weekend.

Loved the location and the room was comfortable enough. It had a strong perfume smell which was off putting. The hostess was lovely and the food was great. The decor was a little over the top for us and it was expensive for what it was. All in all nice but we would stay again.

Loved the place, beautiful room and location. Disappointing there was no internet, i know that is not what you come here for but my partner and i are students. We specifically looked for a place with wi fi which the escarpment was meant to have but unfortunately there was none in the room. Really disappointing and placed stress on the weekend from the start with assessment on. Wanted a nice getaway to work together which couldn't happen and almost ruined the weekend. We told staff we chose the place because it was meant to have this facility but nothing could be done.

If I'd had the time to complain during their office hours I would have. I booked the 3br house with the views. Presumably the better larger option only to find it was a shack whereas others must have been staying in the nicer photos as advertised. Of the 50 photos available to see in the profile choose the 5 worst looking ones and that is the 3br house which overlooks the vally. Greater disclosure of this would have prevent end me from waist big my time! I will be perusing this with Expedia/Hotels.com as it should not be advertised without proper disclosure. Misleading!!!

Overall, a really nice place to stay, beautiful villas, friendly and helpful staff, delicious and hearty breakfasts, beautiful grounds - a bit pricey, but you can often find discounted rates on Hotels.com and other websites for non-peak days - we will definitely stay there again.
