The staff was top notch! Super friendly while remaining 100% professional. The accomodations were absolutely lovely and pristine. Loved being able to play games at night with family by the wood burning stove in mid July.

Nice, “okay” for infants.

Hotel is overall nice. Surrounding towns/ area is beautiful, great hikes/ walks just a short drive away. No ‘amazing’ views from the hotel property. Villa was tough with an infant (fire places, stairs, low drawers/ microwave). Bath tub was perfect, used it everyday. Loads of Nspresso and tea (free) in the room is a nice touch. Breakfast food is decently healthy and a great variety (cooked to order). Staff was wonderful. Would recommend.

Japanese Soaking Tub

We were only there for one night but it was perhaps the best place we stayed in our weeklong holiday of Fiji and Australia. The details were superb from the jazz music playing in the background, the new Leif bath products, the complimentary sake, the really comfortable bed, the his and hers shower and of course, the Japanese soaking tub (which I think could be a little hotter). The grounds of the retreat were wild and tranquil and we would go back to stay there any time. Also the restaurant and cocktails were really good.
