We stayed two nights in a three-bedroom villa with two young kids and their grandparents. We are sensitive to cleaning chemicals but none of us had any reaction, no smell, so we could fully relax at the villa. The waterpark and the bigger pool were amazing, entertained our kids all the time, literally almost all day. We could spot some warrabies in the property, which was a good bonus. The breakfast buffet was also great, especially the egg kitchen. No salad at the time I stayed but a good variety of fresh juices and fruits.
Only my disappointment was that some tissues floated in the “adult only” pool, and it was not cleared on the next day also…
This is the 3rd year staying here in October for my sons golf tournament. Got to see the owner around again. Well done to Dr Schwartz! Everything is clean and well maintained. There some amenities that were low, but as soon as we notified housekeeping it was all provided quite quickly. Even though i prefer carpet, love the new floorboards they put in. Place looks so refreshed. Kids activities were still the fav! Train rides, jumping castle and love the water park. Breakfast is always so good with all the options. Loved the pastries and so many options with eggs. Thank You Rydges we will probably be back again next year.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The room was so spacious and very comfortable. A new hot plate wouldn't go astray.
Large room with mini kitchen and washing machine/dryer in bathroom., very clean. We had a unit upstairs in a block of four. The stairs are step so if that is a problem ask for a downstairs room. Overall nice place to visit the vineyards.
Staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. Amenities of the resort itself are incredible especially for young families or couples. Room is a little outdated with some wear and tear but very comfortable and clean.
Great location in a convenient area, with a spacious and comfortable room. The buffet breakfast was outstanding, offering an impressive variety of options. Free onsite parking was also a big plus, making the stay even more convenient.
Not many places can accommodate 6 adults in one room/villa. This is what makes this property unique. The grounds always look amazing and the breakfast is simply the best. Check in and check out was the easiest I’ve seen at a hotel.
Very central to the Hunter Valley and known to all operators in the area.
