Quite a disappointment, look elsewhere
Oh dear, this hotel was quite disappointing. The room was one of the most basic I had ever seen, the furniture was old and needed maintenance. It was not properly clean either. To top it off its overpriced due to location. Not enough illumination either. What a ripoff! And the talk about nature and eco is a lousy excuse, I've stayed in other national park for the same price with much better conditions. Didn't try the restaurant because it looked weak too. Very slow service, messy kitchen with greasy smell. Noticed that several guests had left more than half food on their dishes and the portions were not that large.

Pricey motel accomodations; excellent restaurant
We stayed in this location in a courtyard room in order to be close to Flinders Chase, and also because we could have dinner on site without driving at night, which is prohibited for rental cars. The location is excellent for exploring the park, and within a 5 minute drive, you can take the Hanson Bay koala walk, which is excellent--we saw many koalas and also enjoyed delicious coffee and muffins there for breakfast. Our dinner at the Wilderness Retreat restaurant was one of the very best we had during our extended Australia trip. The room was like a cheap motel room, very dated, but adequate. Limited free wifi is available in the lodge lobby.

Thoroughly enjoyed our kangaroo steaks in the restaurant. We did not stay here, staying nearby and taking advantage of the restaurant in the hotel. We were welcomed and enjoyed our evening, the venue has great atmosphere

Close to nature
The retreat is in a great location for exploring the island and its amazing features and wildlife. We found the accommodation easily as it was well sign posted. The entrance is welcoming and the staff friendly. Our first room (no.15) was a little dated and tired and there was a really odd smell in the room. I took my chance and thought I would let reception know about the odd smell. I wasn't sure if it was something to do with the surrounds?? The reception was very accommodating and changed our room to no.18. This was much better with no smell. The restaurant served lovely food in a friendly, but casual manner. Apparently the restaurant can be quite busy. Breakfast was also served in the restaurant. Unfortunately there was a minimal choice for people who are unable to have any dairy. There was no soy milk so cereal was not an option. The breakfast was a continental with pastries and muffins, cheeses and cold meat. Some fruit.We saw a wallaby snooping around in the evening :-)

Great retreat with a fantastic location
This is a wonderful retreat with a fantastic location, we have just spent three nights in a Courtyard suite. The room was spatious, clean and nice with wallabys jumping on the porch. The restaurant is good, maybe a little pricy, but hey, you are having excellent meals in the middle of the wilderness! The location close to Flinder's national park is fenomenal and there are lots of hikes close by. We would gladly have stayed a couple of more nights.
