Good Location & Comfortable

Reviewed By Petitewave

Location is wonderful, close to the centre of the town and many wineries. As it’s the last minute booking, we got the last unit left which is an inter-connected double bedroom unit, it got two sets of everything with a shared shower and toilet. Each room is quite large with beds, table & chairs, TV, fridge, microwave, kettle, plates and bowls, etc. most of things a traveler needs. Plunger and instant coffee, fresh milk, tea bags and biscuits are provided. It's nothing fancy at this place but it’s practical and clean, as well as comfortable. BTW, Shower water is good with plenty pressure. The TV in the room is rather small, with my eye sight, I won't be able to watch it from bed. But I'm not there to watch TV, so it's no drama.

Great day out at Serafino

Did a group wine tasting with Kane with the great state voucher and was such a good experience. He knew the full history and was an excellent host. I would highly recommend a day out to Serafino to enjoy their delicious wines and a great experience in Mclaren Vale.

Peace and quiet in the vineyards

Reviewed By narellesinclair

What a treat! So relaxing and comfortable. This is such a lovely property and clearly adored by its owners. 3 lovely cabins outfitted in modern decor, preset fires for the cold and elevated to look out at a fabulous landscape. The location is ideal, very close to major wineries and town. A basket of goodies is provided at booking, snacks, breakfast, a bottle of wine- fabulous?

Walk to stunning beaches renowned for swimming, diving and surfing, enjoy local seafood and wine, or just relax in our peaceful, laid-back park.

Superb customer service and well-maintained amenities

Reviewed By AL_in_SG

Spent 2 nights there before heading to Cape Jervis to take a ferry to Kangaroo Island. After knowing that our campervan didn’t need a powered site, the kind and friendly reception staff helped us to downgrade ours to an unpowered site. A medium sized caravan park with plenty of trees and shades. It was the 2nd half of May and the park was quiet. The toilet was big and clean and the hot shower was good. Unfortunately the camp kitchen was under renovation and couldn’t be used. The down side of travelling in low season. Luckily there was a kettle in the laundry room. A short drive to Aldinga where both your stomach, car and fridge could be replenished.

Lovely room

Reviewed By Metroviv

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel California Rd. The room was spacious and comfortable and the decor and vista were lovely. Breakfast items were supplied together with a couple of little treats. The only downside was that nobody was there to check us and another couple in at the designated time. Nobody answered the phone of the number given to call, and given the cold and wet weather, we had to sit in the car for over 30 minutes.

Worth Staying at the Grape and Olive

Reviewed By Rod S

Booked a group of 10 friends into Grape and Olive in Nov 21 and it was just perfect for our stay. Rachel was so accomodating and organised a bus driver to take us around the breweries and wineries of McLaren Vale in our mini bus, as we did not want to drive. Rachel and her Dad both sourced places to go and her Dad drove the bus, for a small cash donation. Can thoroughly recommend staying her and if you need a driver, ask Rachel, as her Dad does a great job. This is a must consider place to stay if you are wanting to stay in Willunga.
