Perfect location. Renovation is wonderful. We’ve stayed before and this was our best stay.
Pros:

Location is perfect! We walked to the pools, strolled the wonderful shops and food options surround you.

Cons:

Since a lot of guests frequent the pools, a hairdryer and shower cap would’ve been good to have handy in the room.

Great, but photos a bit misleading.
Pros:

The staff were great. The Tennis court is fun.

Cons:

We stayed in the "greenhouse" and i must say, the image of the building for what the greenhouse looks like is a bit misleading. The accommodation is cabins separate from the main building. Which is completely fine and it is nice, however, the photos made me think we would be in the main building. There was also no heat pump, only a small portable heater. It was however, clean and tidy and the location was perfect for the weekend. I would stay again, but only because now i know what to expect.

Great
Pros:

Great venue thank you for lovely stay and comfortable beds.
You recently donated to our Millie Moo Breast Cancer breakfast one nights accommodation. As a result we got other Hanmer businesses on board and auctioned it as a getaway. We raised good money on the fat and as a result we have chosen to stay at Edit tonight for your generosity and we will continue to do so. Thank you so much.

Cons:

Nothing
