We loved everything, we couldn't even try to find something negative to say if we tried. The bed was the most comfortable bed we've both ever slept in (we are even talking about purchasing the same one). We had everything we needed. The spa bath was relaxing, we had complete privacy and we were so relaxed when we left we are already talking about booking again. The little touches that go in to making sure you have a good stay were just a bonus, like a coffee machine with a variety of coffee pod stengths available (personal fave of mine), the cottages were soundproofed so you can't hear other guests going about their stay either, a Bluetooth speaker to play music, breakfast in the fridge, even the extra towels were a nice touch (also a personal favourite of mine). All of it was such a great experience and you can tell that alot of thought and consideration has gone into ensuring your stay is as convenient and comfortable as possible. The gardens are beautifully maintained and easy to navigate as you walk through. The view from our cottage of the trees and gardens was so peaceful and the best part was that you're away from light pollution so you can see the night sky and not have to worry about the sound of traffic or see skyscrapers in the distance. We are definitely staying again. ##### Fiona Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### John May 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bendles - it is the perfect little getaway spot for couples with the privacy of it as well as being amongst nature. The personal touches made it extra special; music playing when we entered the cabin, a basket with basic foods as well as enough in the fridge to see us through breakfast the next day. The cabin itself was perfect for what we needed and the seclusion was just ideal. Waking up to see the cows on the distant hill was incredible, such a beautiful difference from typical city living. We would love to return in winter when we can use the fireplace and have a cooler experience, although the air conditioning saw us through the QLD heat while we were there! A great stay overall, very happy we chose these cottages as our getaway destination. ##### Samantha Stayed 6 nights in Jan 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dominic Mar 5, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities we liked the setting, the cabin looked out over bushland and the cabins were well set up, providing breakfast food was a nice touch. ##### Dominic Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Port Douglas Apartments - Adults Only Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Port-Douglas-Apartments.h1578303.Hotel-Information) > - [Cayman Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Cayman-Villas.h1066350.Hotel-Information) > - [Silkari The Pavilions Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Douglas-Hotels-The-Pavilions.h4736913.Hotel-Information) > - [Mediterranean Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Mediterranean-Resorts.h9627137.Hotel-Information) > - [Opal Ridge Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Collinsville-Hotels-Opal-Ridge-Motel.h33822420.Hotel-Information) > - [The Rocks Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Charleville-Hotels-The-Rocks-Motel.h15122106.Hotel-Information) > - [Gidgee Inn Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cloncurry-Hotels-Gidgee-Inn-Motel.h15570680.Hotel-Information) > - [Airlie Beach Eco Cabins - Adults only](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Airlie-Beach-Eco-Cabins.h20258403.Hotel-Information) > - [Top of The Hill](https://www.expedia.ca/Bald-Knob-Hotels-Top-Of-The-Hill.h14930068.Hotel-Information) > - [Whitsunday Sands Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bowen-Hotels-Whitsunday-Sands-Resort.h9721058.Hotel-Information) > - [Kookaburra Holiday Park Cardwell](https://www.expedia.ca/Cardwell-Hotels-Kookaburra-Holiday-Park-Cardwell.h9627782.Hotel-Information) > - [Pullman Port Douglas Sea Temple Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Pullman-Port-Douglas-Sea-Temple-Resort-And-Spa.h1772601.Hotel-Information) > - [Moondarra Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Innisfail-Hotels-Moondarra-Motel.h9626439.Hotel-Information) > - [Treetops Accommodation Montville](https://www.expedia.ca/Flaxton-Hotels-Treetops-Accommodation-Montville.h9625997.Hotel-Information) > - [NRMA Bowen Beachfront Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Bowen-Hotels-NRMA-Bowen-Beachfront-Holiday-Park.h9627410.Hotel-Information) > - [Tieri Hotel Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tieri-Hotels-Tieri-Hotel-Motel.h9626934.Hotel-Information) > - [The Australian Hotel St George](https://www.expedia.ca/St-George-Hotels-The-Australian-Hotel-St-George.h27257162.Hotel-Information) > - [Absolute Waterfront Magnetic Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Townsville-Hotels-Absolute-Waterfront-Magnetic-Island.h19763764.Hotel-Information) > - [Boulevard Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stanthorpe-Hotels-Boulevard-Motel.h7073631.Hotel-Information) > - [Goondi Hill Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Goondi-Hill-Hotels-Goondi-Hill-Hotel.h36921887.Hotel-Information) > - [The Robert Towns](https://www.expedia.ca/Townsville-Hotels-The-Robert-Towns.h184775.Hotel-Information) > - [Clermont Country Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Clermont-Hotels-Clermont-Country-Motor-Inn.h21317933.Hotel-Information) > - [Seaforth Holiday Units](https://www.expedia.ca/Mackay-Hotels-Seaforth-Holiday-Units.h9624787.Hotel-Information) > - [Ayr Travellers Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Townsville-Hotels-Ayr-Travellers-Motel.h3566002.Hotel-Information) > - [Toscana Village Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Toscana-Village-Resort.h2570197.Hotel-Information) > - [Harbour Cove](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Harbour-Cove.h42540091.Hotel-Information) > - [The Town House Motor Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Goondiwindi-Hotels-The-Town-House-Motor-Inn.h5087960.Hotel-Information) > - [Hayman Views](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Hayman-Views.h27196691.Hotel-Information) > - [Cedar Park Rainforest Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Koah-Hotels-Cedar-Park-Rainforest-Resort.h3929326.Hotel-Information)
