    The property was clean and staff was extremely friendly. The food was brilliant - a wide range of options. The location was nice and perfect, right by a romantic and private getaway, and beautiful one mile beach and nelson bay marina a ten minute drive, in a vibrant area.

    The Eco Cottages with HOT TUB at Wanderers Retreat in Nelson Bay are absolutely amazing! The room is cozy and charming, surrounded by beautiful scenery. As a solo traveller, I felt completely at ease and immersed in nature. It's the perfect place to unwind and recharge.

    Personally, I found the lack of Wi-Fi a bit inconvenient. But hey, some people might actually appreciate the digital detox and enjoy being disconnected for a while.

    I had such a wonderful stay at this place! The location, nestled in a quiet area surrounded by a mile of lush rainforest, was absolutely perfect. I loved how serene and peaceful it was, providing the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The staff were incredibly helpful and offered tours and ticket assistance, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. The room amenities were top-notch, with everything I needed from ironing facilities to air conditioning, creating a comfortable and relaxing environment. I especially enjoyed the outdoor terrace, where I could sit and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

    I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay. From the excellent customer service to the beautiful surroundings, this place truly exceeded my expectations.

    The cottage at Wanderers Retreat in Nelson Bay was absolutely charming! It had a cozy and rustic feel, with beautiful views of the surrounding nature. I felt like I was in my own secluded hideaway, far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The hot tub was just the icing on the cake, providing the perfect way to unwind and relax after a day of exploring.

    Personally, I found the Wi-Fi connection to be a bit spotty. However, I understand that being in a remote location, it can be challenging to have a strong signal.

    We absolutely loved our stay at Wanderers Retreat! the natural surroundings and bushwalks were perfect for our nature-loving family. the fully functional kitchen made it easy for us as vegetarians and vegans. the cozy cabin and comfortable bed provided a great night's sleep. the location was excellent, with a short walk to the beach and a quick drive to the marina. the lack of reception allowed us to truly disconnect and relax. the retreat had a peaceful and secluded feel, making our weekend getaway truly wonderful.

    The cozy atmosphere made our stay even more enjoyable.

    We had a REALLY GOOD experience. Our rooms were well-stocked and tidy. The location was quiet and decent, approx 10-15 minutes' walk from One Mile Beach.

    The property was clean and hidden, home away from home, lovely hosts, fabulous location, walking distance to the beach, clean pool with shade.

    Hard to think of anything.
