My stay was nothing short of exceptional. The bed was supremely comfortable and provided such incredible support that my back felt completely at ease throughout the night—something I don’t often experience when traveling. The tub was absolutely stunning, offering the perfect space to unwind in style, while the combustion fireplace added a warm, intimate ambiance that made the entire room feel both luxurious and inviting. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, combining comfort and elegance in a way that created a truly memorable experience. This was, without a doubt, a 5-star stay that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking both relaxation and refinement.

Tranquillity
We were really impressed by this cute little modern cottage. It has 2 fireplaces, one in the bubble bath area and one in the bedroom. It has a cozy feel to it and was the perfect choice for our 2 night getaway. It was clean and well equipped. This place is absolute magic.

An absolute gem of a place in a beautiful location
Java Villa is simply gorgeous, it’s a beautiful old building with high ceilings & is a very comfortable place to stay. The bed was really comfortable, the kitchen had everything including a fabulous coffee machine which was all ready to go filled with coffee beans. The owner left us sour dough bread, butter, jam & milk which we were very grateful for. The location is great, it’s a lovely walk into the pretty little town of Strathalbyn. Good communication with the owner who too. ,We will definitely stay again.

I had a wonderful time. The hosts were warm and attentive, making me feel right at home. The room was cozy and peaceful, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. I loved relaxing in the beautiful hot tub. The location was perfect—quiet but still close to everything I wanted to see. It was the perfect spot to unwind, and I’m already looking forward to returning!
