The surrounding nature is lovely

Stayed in September 2022

We arrived decked out with food for 3 days/ hiking gear/ essentials and because the parking is white a distance from the apartments we had to do 4 journeys - the esky was heavy!!! I did see Jenny the day I left and asked could I take my car through a back way - which wasn’t a problem… so if you have packed a lot maybe ask the question. There are no blinds on the bedroom windows so you can’t sleep in ever… which is kinda the point of getting away. It did detract from that relaxed feeling. The WiFi coverage is really poor - which is great on one hand but I needed to work one night of my stay and left a day early as it wasn’t enough for me to connect to work. You need insect repellent… and a TV downstairs would have been better for us… we’re friends away and you could only lay in bed to watch it … awesome though for a romantic weekend!

The property is Beautiful, apartment is gorgeous, tranquil, private even though you are right next door to each other, bathrooms are totally sexy, close to everything you might need and it had pretty much everything you needed…

No reception, no staff

Nice setting

the hot water cut out one morning and it was fixed promptly by the caretaker but it did continue to go out a couple of times. took quite a while to get a shower that morning

I liked the peaceful nature of the property. it was lovely to sit around the fireplace in the evening

A few things seemed to cheapen the experience, not having a TV in the room seems like a really basic thing not to provide. The handle for the cold water in the shower would come out really easily, they provided shampoo/conditioner/bodywash which is nice but in big bottles that you can tell have been sitting there a while so it was off putting. Also some things were overlooked when cleaning, the doors were quite dirty and there was a long hair on our bed (when we had only just got in the room so wasn't ours).

The location and setting were great, a quick drive into Margaret River and just off Caves Rd. Beautifully kept gardens and main homestead was clean and tastefully decorated.

Parking is not good. If you arrive home at night you have to park down the hill on wet grass and if you have an ailment and disability you’re not going to be making it up to the Homestead.

Extremely disappointed to find we had a room with a bathroom. We expected a large room with kitchen and spa bathroom. The advert is very misleading when you’re expecting this and then find you’ve been booked into the Homestead. Although comfortable it wasn’t good enough for my second honeymoon. I purchased the Epsom salt and that was a waste of time. I wouldn’t stay there again but I will close in saying that the caretaker lady was absolutely amazing person in every way, she was lovely.

The shower was very temperamental, and the whole bathroom was wet after showering (the shower curtain is a bit too short for the shower). Because the bathroom was always so wet, it was difficult to dry towels etc so we ended up using our own towels as well. The king bed was just two king singles next to each other which meant we had to sleep on separate sides of the bed - it wasn’t a major issue but a king mattress would have been better.

Beautiful house and decor. Great shared spaces within the homestead including a lounge room stocked up with board games and a fire! The host was very friendly and accommodating, let us check in early and was very helpful. Being only 10 mins from town was also helpful!

could have done with some more kitchen items such as salt & pepper, plastic wrap & paper towels. Also a throw blanket. Bed was a bit hard.

Location, grounds, clean and modern unit, love the glass doors and windows

Stayed in June 2022

The unit we stayed in wasn't as clean as it should have been, cobwebs, dust and debris on some surfaces & in bathroom in particular. Shower hadn't had a good clean in a while, grout & sealant was grubby and tired & needed replacing.

Beautiful location and tranquil setting.

Did not find the bed comfortable to sleep on but that was the only critique - we really enjoyed our stay.

We loved the location, privacy of the rooms, amenities, the spa bath and the grounds were lovely.

Stayed in April 2022

The retreat is orientated towards a communal setting that is no chairs in the room or televisions.l

Self contained very quite

Stayed in April 2022

The bathroom needed a deep clean, grout in shower, floor around shower screen and unblocking the sink. There was no sound insulation from the adjoining villa.

Excellent location, beautiful setting.

N/A

This is the second time we have stayed at Gilgara in a garden villa. We love the tranquility of Gilgara and both times our villa has been very clean, neat and tidy.

Stayed in March 2022

Under the bed has not been cleaned. There was a thick layer of dust and found old pairs of socks that didn't belong to us.

The size of the apartment, unique layout, surrounded by nature and animals and seclusion from neighbours. Easy login to the wifi and use of the spa. Close to Margaret River town and Prevally/Gracetown. Primo spot to get around.

Beautiful location. Very quiet.

Dusty pillow cases. Dirty dish cloth.

Location. Well set up room.

Stayed in January 2022

As the room has walks made of windows (which is amazing fir the view) the sun wakes you early. They did provide eye masks but I still found myself woken by the sun.

The location and view were amazing. Comfortable, funky and quiet.

Stayed in January 2022

Poor noise insulation, not sure is just through the door or wall or ceiling.

A Beautiful quiet location with large open spaces and mature trees. The garden and surrounding areas are well kept and neat. Centrally located to tour both the southern and northern areas of Margaret River.

Bathrooms could have been cleaner. We didn't like the fact two single beds were pushed together, we were expecting a king bed, also would have been handy if the key could lock the outside door. A tv in the bedrooms would have really made it perfect.

The location. The decor, the gardens.

Stayed in December 2021

these aren’t dislikes but possible improvements. - A comfortable couch would be good, considering it’s a couples retreat. - hot plate took a long time to cook meat. - a trolley or something similar would be handy to transport luggage and supplies to the room. - room was tidy but could do with a deeper clean.

fantastic view from inside the room looking out into the trees. nice spa bath. free fast wifi. felt secluded. great geographic location.

Stayed in November 2021

Bathroom needs a deep clean, lots of cobwebs and bugs.

Loved the bath and the location.

Stayed in November 2021

Rooms too small, no electric water jug for tea in the rooms

It’s a quiet place

Stayed in October 2021

Wifi wasn’t great, however it wasn’t too important as the views and daily activities within the region were great. And everything else was above expectation

Stayed in August 2021

Some of the facilities might need upgrading

The location is absolutely stunning. Staff are very accommodating and the design of the little apartments is gorgeous
