Guest Reviews
- Roger (9/5): Ein Erlebnis - Schöne Zimmer, wunderbare Aussicht, Nachtessen sehr gut, sehr freundliches Personal Morgenessen ( vor allem Continental ) eher etwas dürftig!
- Richard (8/5): Comfortable and away from the masses - Wonderful location and setting by the sea Breakfast needs to improve
- Roland (8/5): A nice stay anyway in a fabulous lodge , with very professionnal staff . - The staff was fantastic , the whether was bad , the food is good but not at the level of a Relai Château . The food is good but not at the right level for the price ( $ 5000 dollars per day per couple ) . I didn't feel confortable when i had to pay more to have a piece of cheese at the end of the meal . For $ 5000 per day with breakfeast and dinner included , i can't accept to have to pay $14 more for a piece of cheese . I live this detail very badly .
- Linda (10/5): WOW! What a place. - We felt absolutely spoiled. We were welcomed with open arms.
The staff were outstanding, informatve and very friendly.
Although the dinner menu was very limited the quality was 5 star.
Accommodation was absolutely immaculate and so comfortable.
Will definitely be back even though it was a bit pricey. Limited menu options.

- Ann (9/5): The stay was excellent overall - The beds could have been more comfortable
- Diego (10/5): Out of this world!! Beautiful. - This might be the prettiest place I ever stayed at. The scenery is spectacular. The hotel is just perfect. It's a beautiful country-house with exceptional food and the service is great. A++. I strongly recommend this. We did the horse and ATV tour and it's a must do. Fly into Wellington and rent a car to see the beautiful scenery on the 2 hr drive. I would love to return.
