This was our third stay and we will be coming back again. The cottage was excellent and Dom has everything you need on hand for breakfast to the bread machine and a bottle of port to warm you up, he also has the log fire prepared for you to light when ready. Nothing like sitting in a warm spa under the stars it a must

Manzanilla Ridge was a fantastic property in a great location. The seclusion of the cabins made you feel immersed in the native bush and the owners were very welcoming and accommodating. The fully equipped kitchen was a great surprise. We'll be back.

Lovely cabin! Everything well maintained and looked after. Quiet and peaceful location. Fireplace was ready to be lit on arrival which made the cabin feel very homely. Fully functional kitchen was great to cook in. Very private outdoor spa which was very clean. I had to drag the MRS away on departure. Dom the owner was very friendly and welcoming.

Nein leider nicht noch einmal

Sicher cool einmal für sich zu sein und etwas abgeschiedenheit geniessen. Die Hütten wurden einmal mit viel Geld gebaut... Leider hat man kein Geld für dwn Austausch und die Neuerung mehr ausgeheben. Sauberkeit lässt sehr zu wünschen übrig. In der Kücke klebt alles und ist fettig.. das Gewürz konnte man fast nicht aufheben da abgeklebt Im Bad muss dringend der Schimmel entfernt werden. Die Duschwand ist nicht mer stabil und das Lavabo war zersprungen und der Hahn lotterte. Zudem sollte der Seifenspender getauscht werden Seit Monaten wurde nicht mehr i. Den Ecken gewischt. Der Aussenbereich ist auch seit Monaten nicht mehr gereinigt worden... Zu teuer dür diese Unterkunft Leider
