Jul 21, 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication Unfortunately, our stay at this property was disappointing. The house had a persistent curry smell throughout the entire weekend, which made it quite unpleasant. The kitchen utensils were noticeably dirty upon arrival, which raised hygiene concerns. Additionally, the spa did not heat up properly, making it unusable for most of our stay. Perhaps most frustrating was the lack of communication — the property manager was completely unresponsive when we needed assistance, yet quick to reach out when it came to requesting more money for an extra guest. Overall, it fell well short of expectations. ##### Christian W. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane L. Sep 10, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful retreat The house was excellently appointed. It was like moving from our home to a replica. The only thing we thought could be better was some lamp light in the main sitting room would have been great. The overhead lighting was quite severe with no alternative. ##### Diane L.

Oct 14, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spacious Home in Quiet Location The house is lovely. Fresh clean linen, spacious rooms. Our kids loved the arcade game and used the pool table too. Plenty of storage for bikes which we needed. Quite a few pantry staples provided which made a big difference The spa and pool were not as advertised. The pool not heated. The spa did work but requires filling each time. I recommend you check both are operational if you intend on using them. ##### Belinda F. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon P.

Fantastic with kids pool and spa fantastic as you can heat it. It could use a new firmer mattress in the main bedroom. Also would like a little bit more light I think maybe stronger globes , and a few kitchen utensils like a sharp knife and bottle opener. But still amazing Thanks ##### Sonja Robnik This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anonymous Jul 24, 2016 #### Amazing and relaxing We stayed here and found the House to perfect for a quiet getaway - It is very well appointed and everything you need is here. My only comment would be that a number of lights didn't work and also the Spa wouldn't heat up so we didn't use it. Other than that totally recommend this House its just so lovely. ##### Anonymous This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anonymous Apr 3, 2016 #### Excellent property!! This is the most beautiful spot to get away! It is set up with everything you would ever need for the perfect getaway! We loved spending time in the pool and spa, even utilising it to watch the sunrise. Perfectly situated next to stunning mountains means 'quiet' and the most pretty views from every window.

We thoroughly enjoyed our three day weekend at Collins Retreat. The house has been designed with the living and kitchen areas in the middle of the house and two bedrooms on either side of this central area. This is a perfect set-up for multiple families/couples travelling together. The games area provided hours of entertainment and the owners even leave you access to two bikes and helmets, a set of golf clubs and pool toys. The outdoor area comprising of a pool, spa, alfresco seating, BBQ and sunken seating area perfectly complemented the house. Quality appliances and furniture, 4 TVs, DVD players and stacks of DVDs, magazines, books, board games, extra linen, pantry staples, laundry detergents, toiletries you would expect in a hotel...the list goes on and on. We will definitely be back again and highly recommend this property! ##### Anonymous This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anonymous Apr 16, 2013 #### Beautiful....simply beautiful.
