Elegant and serene 2 bedroom apartment
The apartment is situated in cypress lakes resort in a very quiet setting. The owners have done a wonderful job with the presentation, it is perfectly styled and each bedroom has its own bathroom which is great. The apartment was very clean. The kitchen had everything you needed to be able to cook and make your own meals with a counter top and dining table to sit around. Having a coffee machine in the morning was a godsend ! The outlook and the occasional kangaroo hopping by was wonderful !! Thank you and looking forward to visiting again 🤩

Disappointing
After a highly efficient reservation and check-in process, we had high hopes. However, we were disappointed with Villa Cabernet. One of the bedrooms and it’s associated bathroom did not appear to have been cleaned since the previous guest. The kitchen bench had food crumbs on it, and the outdoor table setting was filthy. On the second night of our stay, we were unlucky to have a group of loud and drunk males partying on the deck of the villa next door ALL NIGHT from 4pm-7am. Asked them twice to quieten down and received a tirade of offensive abuse. Dreadful. Appreciated the bottle of wine left in the fridge, and the kitchen basics like tea, sugar, olive oil, etc. Nevertheless, we won’t be back.

Great location to stay for Hunter Valley trips!!
Comfortable retreat for 3 lifetime friends to stay & enjoy the Hunter Valleys beautiful scenery/Vineyards & so close to the concert we went to @ Roach Estate last night which was fantastic with return transport so easy 🎼💞🎼 The place would be much better with some much needed maintenance please 1. The front door was stuck & difficult to open plus no lighting to see what you are doing with the code entry. 2. There were cobwebs & dust in most corners. 3. The uncovered balcony was covered in dirt/leaves/spiders that we had to sweep up & the uncovered outdoor setting is rusting from being exposed to the elements (marked all of our clothes). 4. The kitchen sink tap is not secure - comes out of socket when you try to use it (also loose tap in the downstairs toilet). 5. The dishwasher is dangerous - when you release to open the door it falls very heavily (it hit my knee - bruise only thankfully but if a baby or toddler was under/near could cause serious head injury) + it leaks water In use also.

Clean country air
Great experience sipping wine out on the back balcony on the verge of the bush, hearing the bird song and glimpsing the wallabies out for a hop. Very tastefully furnished apartment and I'd like to return for a winter stay and enjoy the fire place.

Great spot to relax
From the drive in to departure two days later, relaxation was on our mind and our stay did not disappoint. The unit was beautifully decorated, having all the mod cons. With a stunning view to the south of the broken back range, relaxing in the balcony was made easy. Each room had a well appointed ensuite and huge king beds. Air conditioning was much needed and worked well. Parking and access was easy. The kitchen included a full fridge and coffee machine. Villa Cabernet did not disappoint.

Nice and Central
Overall I was very happy with my stay here, the complimentary wine was a really nice touch to our stay and the property was clean. We didn’t cook in the kitchen but we did use some utensils from the draw that could have been cleaner but otherwise we had a great stay, nice and central.

Villa Cabernet Excellence
Villa Cabernet is the perfect house for you and your friends. My friend and I stayed in it for 2 nights and it was great. It is perfect to stay in for the weekend and catch up as well as explore the Hunter Valley and be able to relax whenever we wanted. It was great that we had lots of space and weren't always on top of each other. It was great

Fantastic stay!! Will definitely be back!
We booked thia villa for 2 nights whilst my mum is visiting from the uk and we absolutely loved it. We all said when we arrived we felt straight at home, there was everything we The location was perfect and so central to everything in the Hunter it was absolutely perfect. The grounds around the villa in the resort itself were very well looked after and the views were amazing with lots of kangaroos. We already can't wait to come back and are thinking about our next visit wouldn't look any further for accommodation.
