Guest Reviews
- Femi (10/5): A beautiful location with easy access to local wineries. Can’t recommend higher - Beautiful location secluded and exactly what we needed as a couple. Excellent hosts. Nothing, it was perfect.
- Kerstin (10/5): -
- Jevon (10/5): -
- Jacinta (10/5): Such a beautiful find and would definitely stay again. - The location itself amazing and it’s even better than the pictures Nothing except didn’t stay long enough
- Jetro (9/5): Lovely place for a quiet weekend getaway. Serenity! - Cozy and quiet property perfect for a relaxing weekend retreat. Place was beautiful and clean, had everything you needed for a few days stay. Nice location that’s about 20-30 minutes away from Margaret River / Dunsborough for activities during the day but we didn’t mind the drive - the place was worth it! Bathroom stays pretty damp even with the extraction fan on and window open so towels didn’t dry well even in the summer, but we ended up hanging them outside to dry after each use. The plug in the bathtub has a rather tall knob so be extra careful you don’t hurt yourself on it!
- Denise (9/5): Modern comfortable chalet with rustic touches set in serene bush land. - Our second stay at Simala, it was so wonderful to return and see how all the trees and shrubs have grown. We love the peaceful surroundings which seem so far away from the business of nearby towns yet close enough. A big bonus is the availability of massages on site. Nothing we can think of.
A little disappointing not to have a bottle of wine and fresh loaf of bread awaiting us on arrival as we did on our first visit.
- James (9/5): -
- Casey (9/5): Great location. Peaceful surrounds and very clean. - Lovely peaceful location and very clean. The birds and other animals on the property were amazing to watch in the morning and afternoon.
Owners were very tentative.
- Taisa (9/5): Great location. Beautiful accommodation. - Location Needed beach towels and would be good to have blockout curtains in the bedroom. The sun rises early and in summer I wake with the sunlight entering the room (5:15am).
- Nick (10/5): The most perfect stay in Margaret River - Absolutely beautiful chalets, designed with style for a relaxing stay. Everything was perfect from super comfortable beds, through the kitchen setup and superb bathroom with shower and a great bath for soaking. We really enjoyed every moment of the stay, and can’t thank Simone and Alan enough for the welcome we received, great massage, food and wine recommendations, help getting a cake for a birthday. Made for a truly memorable stay. If you want to visit Margaret River wine country and stay away from it all, it still a 5-10 minute drive to some world class wineries this is your spot. Nothing - loved it all.
- Con (10/5): Definitely recommend this place and I’ll go back there - Great space, very relaxing and private and located in the heart of everything you want to visit. Accommodation was great, spacious without being too big. Great bed . You felt like you were a part of nature. Nothing
- Lisa (9/5): - Everything was amazing exactly like the pictures Just need a couple lights around the drive way up to the cabins
- Dominique (10/5): -
- Dave (10/5): Amazing stay. - Simone and Alan were absolutely amazing, along with their friendly dog Otto. We were given very clear instructions as to how to access the property. The land is beautiful and offers a very relaxed vibe with the option to walk through the forest. Location was brilliant. The accommodation was very comfy with everything you need plus more. I would highly recommend staying here
- Edwards (10/5): -
- Tess (8/5): -
- Maureen (8/5): Highly recommend Simala Retreat for its location and owner’s attention to guest needs. - Location, views, natural environment, peace and quiet.
Well stocked provisions including wood supply for fire. No milk for coffee/tea on arrival.
- Alexandra (9/5): - Lovely stay! Beautiful house, very clean, and stunning location! Would love to stay here again!
- Georgi (10/5): Excellent stay with a relaxing environment. - Great stay at Simala retreat. Simone and Allan have a lovely property. We thoroughly enjoyed the chalet, a little noisy during the day with construction from
next door.
Overall a relaxing stay with all amenities. A little noisy during the day with construction from
next property over.
- Tracy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Cecilia (9/5): Superb -
- Yusufali (10/5): Lovely place and very tranquil and close to everything. Brilliant!! - Very tranquil and the accommodation was very clean and comfortable.
- Moin (9/5): Lovely relaxing getaway. On site massage and yoga was great. Will be visiting again. - Very comfortable, clean chalet in a great location with a lovely view. Had everything we needed. Nothing!
- Chip (10/5): Wonderful wooded setti g - Beautiful wooded property with lots of birds. The host was wonderful. Gave us towels for the beach. Short drive to beach and restaurants. Overall great experience.
- Angela (10/5): Gorgeous place with all mod cons - Loved the modern feel of the place. Great air con and comfortable bed and couches etc. great location and surroundings. Nothing
- Karla (10/5): Exceptional - The little things were thought to make your stay extra comfortable and convenient. It was also very peaceful.
- Ian (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely location, spacious and beautifully appointed, very comfortable bed, spotlessly clean. Very relaxing place to stay Some construction work going on next door which started early but this will only be temporary.
- Ailsa (9/5): Superb - We loved being immersed in nature at Simala. Due to the very clever design with the open plan living spaces and floor to ceiling windows/doors you can l see all nature has to offer from the lounge, bedroom or outdoor undercover areas. The towering eucalyptus tress and native wildlife offer different sounds at different times of the day. There were no other noises. Being from the city this is what I look for when I stay in the south west. The Aparthotel was so well equipped so this meant that we could stay in and not have to tackle the crowds in town!! A massage was also organised for us after our long drive down in the Wellness centre.
I also loved the big deep bath overlooking the secluded outdoor hidden garden area.
I can't wait to return in winter and light the fire!!!
Thank you so much for offering this gorgeous peaceful space to those of us from the city with busy lives.
- Chen (10/5): Perfect stay and couldn’t ask for a better place - Extremely clean, comfortable and really well furnished! The quietness is also very much appreciated. Nil
- Renee (10/5): Absolutely tranquil setting, must visit. - This would have to be the cleanest place I have stayed in. And the owner has thought of every details. My stay was superb. Leaving!
- Jeffrey (10/5): Peaceful, comfortable, good value and well catered. Happy to recommend. - V comfortable, beautiful location and v informative hosts emailed us lots of useful info. Thoughtful touches like containers and food wrap available too so making lunches was possible. Was self catering but could have used a few more cups and cutlery. Just a wee negative on an otherwise lovely stay.
- Carrie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Corey (9/5): Private and modern retreat! - Very quiet, modern and clean. Excellent facilities and very close to all the main attractions down south. Nothing! Everything was nice 🙂
- Glyn (9/5): We had a lovely 3 days enjoying the local wineries and food - Great location Modern with all amenities
- Jing (10/5): Memorable stay . Will definitely come back again to recharge ourselves! - The privacy and tranquillity. Felt like we were out of the world, zero traffic noise , zero air pollution. All we got were the positive energy from the woods and the sounds of the leaves and branches when there was winds. The whole apartment was amazingly well maintained and sparkly clean. Truly a charging point for us. It would be better If there can be a day curtain at the main entrance door near the kitchen at Chalet 2. No need for black out blinds but a day curtain.
Would love to see more kangaroos ! They were too shy.
- Grant (8/5): Beautiful place to stay - Everything you need is there and it is good quality. The bed was as hard as concrete
- Amanda (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful villa on a countryside property. Has modern amenities. Nice and quiet. Can stay in and cook or go to Margaret River Town to eat about 15 minutes drive. Great for couples. Nothing
- Ailee (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the property, it is very quiet, calm and beautiful. I went for a walk around the property on a few occasions, there were rabbits, kookaburras and a lot of butterflies. The accommodation itself was clean, modern, cosy and had all the amenities one could need. My partner and I had a couples massage and a sound bath in their wellness studio which was beautiful as well. Furthermore, it is very close to the Margaret River wine region and the main town with good coffee and food. The owners, Simone and Alan, are lovely and inviting as well. We will definitely be back.
- Brittany (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lynda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jess (10/5): Such a nice property, the chalet’s are so spacious & have everything you need - Such a nice property. The chalets are spacious & have everything you need incl kitchen & aircon. Super clean, cannot fault it. Hosts also reached out with a list of recommendations in the area which was super helpful. Would definitely come back
- Martin (9/5): Beautiful modern unit superbly equipped with woodland views. - Location. Really well-equipped; clean; views. The room was attached to the main house, so could have been more private. However this did not affect our stay.
- Mark (8/5): Very good - secluded. clean modern well appointed
- Ilchenko (10/5): Wonderful and peaceful stay at Samala! -
- Anonymous (10/5): A beautiful place to relax, recharge and connect with nature. - Contemporary design and furnishings. Attention to detail with beautiful linens, towels, toiletries and welcome chocolates. Beautiful outlook onto nature.
Well-being studio facility offering couples massages. Nothing
- Cameron (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vicki (9/5): Superb - Location was perfect for what we needed with my husband doing a presentation at the winery around the corner. Central to many tourist locations as well including wineries, Margaret River Chocolate, MR Venision yet only 20 minutes out of MR. The surrounds are so peaceful set in the bush and little Otto is such a cutie! The only fault I found was the incense sticks in the unit, lovely touch but unfortunately, I am sensitive to that sort of stuff. Once moving them outside I had no further problems.
- Phil (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrew (10/5): Romantic getaway in the forest - Beautiful location and property. Great amenities. Super helpful and lovely staff who topped up our firewood supply.
Fire place roaring whilst surrounded by trees as it rains. What’s not to love? Better quality knives for cooking would be appreciated. The knives were ok, but not great. But that’s really the only constructive criticism I have. Everything else was incredible, as it was last time we came. Will definitely return!
- Haydn (10/5): Peaceful and relaxing, hosts were very accomodating. - Exceptional place to stay, everything was great! Hosts were fantastic!
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional - The location and amenities provided.
- Monique (9/5): Superb -

- Cameron (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marg (9/5): Superb -
- Brent (10/5): Luxury chalet set in the forrest -
- Dominique (9/5): Superb - Loved the cleanliness and quietness. The couples massage was divine and the hosts were so lovely Only having 2 towels for 3 nights...I think a fresh towel each day would make the stay more comfortable. In saying that, we didn't request new towels and it may have been a possibility of we did.
- Alison (10/5): Exceptional -
- Charles (9/5): Lovely retreat in the countryside - Great settings in the countryside. Very quiet and calming retreat. Perfect to get away from the kids and work for a couple of days and recharge. The owners are very welcoming and assisted us to borrow bicycles without being intrusive. Their dog Otto is adorable (just don't feed him, as he's obsessed with food... ;)
