- james (10/5): -
- Ciara (10/5): Cosy and cute place to get away - Very cute, tranquil cottage. The wood burner, a bottle of wine with scrabble was good fun. Very tasty breakfast in the morning.
- Dasun Tharuka (9/5): - The pool spa was extraordinary.
- David (10/5): Great for a weekend getaway - very comfortable! - Very clean, warm and great location. Walking distance from the Dandenong Ranges Botanic Garden and a short drive to some top notch restaurants. Lovely host.
- Judith (8/5): - Good location. Nice cottage amongst the trees perfect for a couple getaway. Great service, excellent communication.
- daniel (10/5): If you are looking for location, and a place to stay. Come to this little paradise in the Mountains. - What was there to not like. The Spa, fireplace, the loft, the viewing room, the bed, friendly, the location and helpful staff.
Mt Dandenong is a great place to visit for a holiday, add in the Arcadia and you have the perfect match.
Great for couples to get away and wind down. I only booked it for one day not 2.
- Brendan (10/5): It was a great get away. We loved it. We didn’t expect to wake up to snow in May, just lovely. - Location was perfect, about a ten minute walk (2 minute drive) from the main shops. The place was lovely and well maintained
- Denise (10/5): Excellent. - Loved the super comfy bed and selection of pillows. Everything was lovely and very generous. We will stay again as have family in the area. We found the check in a bit confusing. Signs directing to reception but there wasn’t a reception. Eventually it worked out and the cleaning staff were lovely and helpful. We will be back. X

- Monika (10/5): Perfect getaway! - Cute cottage! Lovely atmosphere.
- Daniel (7/5): - The location and the surroundings Needed more heating. Only heating was in the bedroom. Small table needed inside to make breakfast & kitchenette to use rather than the bathroom basin

- Anne (8/5): Couple's cottage in the forest - Woodland setting, good provisions for DIY breakfast. Spacious cottage and very quiet location. Warm toilet seat! More heating is needed for the large area of the Studio cottage. Most cottages had car parking immediately next to the building. We had to walk out to the parking in the main entrance.

- Winchcombe (10/5): -

- Gao (10/5): -
- Jodie (10/5): Relaxing bliss - I recently stayed at Acadia Cottages and had such a wonderful experience. From before I arrived, the service from Jessica was exceptional and then Fiona when I came up in person —they were both incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at home.
The property itself is beautiful and peaceful, with the sweetest touch of little chickens greeting me on arrival—it instantly set the tone for a relaxing stay. The entire team created such a warm and inviting atmosphere.
My cottage was absolutely perfect—super relaxing, thoughtfully set up, and equipped with great kitchen amenities. The hot tub was a standout and an absolute highlight, and the rainfall showerhead added an extra level of comfort and relaxation.
I also loved the little details, like the beautiful roses in both the kitchen area and the sunroom—they really elevated the whole experience.
Overall, this is a gorgeous place to unwind for a few days. I truly enjoyed my stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.
- Laura (10/5): -
- Glenice (10/5): -
- Steven (9/5): Excellent romantic get away for couples. - This is not a five star hotel but a very comfortable cottage with all the amenities you may need. A very romantic cottage not too far from the city for a quick get away. Rain on the tin roof through the night was very relaxing. Quite a number of good restaurants within ten minutes drive. Had to cook our own breakfast. However, everything you needed was provided.
- Olivia (10/5): -
- Natalie (8/5): -
- Byrne (10/5): - Really nice area, staff were great! Cottage was pretty cool
- Lanai (10/5): - It was nice and peaceful
- Rebecca (10/5): -
- Ruffian (5/5): Disappointed 😞 - cozy wood fire, beautiful ambiance, comfortable bed. cushions were on point. hot tub. easy location. not much options for breakfast. heaps of rules. communication was a let down. no tea towel. dishes cleaned or $50 fee is incredible. just wanted to relax. whom I phoned gave me the abc of what not to do. pretty sure we are not 5 yo. no microwave or oven. just stove top.

- Daniel (10/5): -
- SOTIRIOS (10/5): - everything it was clean, has very rich for breakfast and has EVERYTHING and all the ingredients are branded.except the branded wines has that beautiful liqueur on site of bed.a lot of towels.the bed it crazy comfortable with ton pillows. it one of the best cottages is see Poor internet,outside the table ,chairs it was dirty you you couldn't to seat.
- Z (10/5): - Beautiful cottage with character. Loved the generosity of food and complimentary drinks.
- Kerri (8/5): -
- Melissa (7/5): Relaxing, generous Breakfast Hamper! Great Location - The cottage was quirky and cosy, Location was great, close to township. Very generous with breakfast hamper and extra food supplies. Is very relaxing apart from the other cottage, thinking they were at a concert with there loud music, the music sound reduced after a while. Spa wasn’t working, felt just like a bath rather than a spa.
- Max (10/5): -
- Maureen (10/5): I have never been happier walking into accommodation booked online. It exceeded my expectations and Jessica was a really - So peaceful and private and in beautiful surroundings. Lovely selection of local and free range produce for breakfast. Comfortable bed, pillows and furniture. Private hot tub surrounded by trees was absolutely perfect. Nothing I didn’t love
- Kamal (10/5): -
- David (9/5): -
- Lucia (10/5): A peaceful getaway - The team was incredibly attentive and helpful. The cottage and surroundings are so beautiful and relaxing. We loved the incredibly generous breakfast offering - bacon, eggs, bread, cheese,fruit, cereal, muesli, jams, juice, the list goes on! It truly is so well thought out. Seeing the chickens roaming the yard in the morning was a highlight! The cottage is so close to the stunning Dandenong Ranges Botanical Gardens, which I can't recommend enough. And it's also just a few minutes drive from some stores and the wonderful Olinda High Tea restaurant. Arcadia cottages are great for a weekend stay but with a fully equipped kitchen, you can definitely stay longer! We hope to return one day. Thank you for the excellent service.
- Daniel (8/5): Beautiful getaway - Private, homely N/A

- Anqi (10/5): - Again, another 10/10. This is my favourite place to stay in the entire state of Victoria. Spacious, clean, reclusive, with amazing amenities. Jessie, your high standards have definitely paid off. Perfect for a relaxing overnight trip either solo or with a special someone. One of the curtains didn't close, or maybe I just couldn't figure it out. But it was minor details.
- Ianni (10/5): -

- Jessica (5/5): Had an amazing experience, however I wouldn't come back simply due to how cold the bedroom is. - [ ] Very good amount of snacks included in price.
[ ] Seats, sofa bed, and bed are all very comfy.
[ ] Car spot right at front door and undercover which is perfect for when it's raining and you need to bring things in. The car spot also has a sensor light which is great at night.
[ ] Lighting is great.. Many different options & the main lights can be adjusted.
[ ] Spa is practically indoors but with fresh air coming in... Amazing. Doesn't take too long to fill up.
[ ] Good selection of different types of pillows.
[ ] Very accommodating to make us a second bed in the main area for my mother. [ ] Bathtub amazing but glass windows fog so much that you can't really see the forest
[ ] Heating in the lounge is amazing, however absolutely freezing in the bedroom. No heating, electric blanket, nor thick doonas. The heat doesn't really come through from the lounge area into the bedroom. The bed linen was absolutely freezing.
[ ] Summer dressing robes provided... Definitely not useful at all during cold days.
[ ] "Exceptional breakfast included in price", which is stated on bookings. com actually means that you get the ingredients in your fridge so that you can cook it yourself.
[ ] No coffee machine & a poor selection of tea.
[ ] No tissues which was odd. There was 1 box of tissues in the whole cottage & it had a total of 3 tissues in it. No spare box anywhere.
Spa room has many cobwebs on the windows, though I can imagine that this is hard to maintain in the location
- El kassar (10/5): - The jacuzzi was amazing and relaxing There was nothing i didn't like. Everything was amazing
