"Amazing property! "

"Very happy with the hotel and room"

"First of all the location is excellent… right in the middle of the rainforest, although the drive up there is not for the faint hearted. My room was very basic, which was expected. The thing I didn’t like was that the door to the deck didn’t seal at all, so when the wind blew at night it rattled the blinds and kept me awake. Parking spots are very tight for even a modest size car. Food options were limited and expensive. If you are not in a self catering unit you run out of choices quickly. I didn’t do too many activities but the e-bike ride and the morning bird watch were great. I did several solo hikes which were also great. The view of the stars at night was stunning."

"Pet friendly , relatively clean . Great fireplace ( just needed a bit more wood to burn ) great outlook and comfy beds . All amenities catered for . Extra food necessities like tomato sauce stocked in cupboard Although fairy lights need new batteries for outside around bath "

"Not well located for hiking as the track up Mt Warning seems to be 'permanently' closed for the usual reasons. Chair on balcony broken, hot plate difficult to operate but otherwise ok for the money "

"There is no staff on location, so if anything goes wrong, you get a sorry via text. The main phone number is disconnected. You can't actually reply to the text that they send you the information from. Personally I'd give it a wide birth."

"Awesome sauna! Thank u team for setting this up for us and making my birthday celebration so special "

"Hillcrest Mountain View Retreat is a hidden sanctuary. We hit the jackpot when we were searching for accommodation in the area to attend a wedding. Its location is nothing short of spectacular and the 360 views are breathtaking. Hosts Craig and Paul were so warm and welcoming, and a wealth of knowledge about the local area. Our room had such a comfortable bed with everything we needed and many more extras. The deck was made for unwinding with a daybed and hammock inviting you to linger and recharge, while absorbing Nature all around you. There was a lovely sitting room, dining area, a well-stocked library, and swimming pool (which we didn’t have time to swim in). It was therapy just being there, including the collection of art and artefacts. One of the highlights was breakfast, with a menu that you wanted to stay a week to sample chef Paul’s culinary delights. As we’d only booked one night, leaving was hard, knowing there was so much more. However it gives us a reason to return because we left wanting more. "
