Wow! I was so surprised to read some of these reviews, it seems so far from my own experience as one of so much fufillment! I stayed 4 nights late March and can say I came away with more than just the experience of wonderful service, delicious food and first class pampering, this place has something special about it that...

I have been visiting authenticity regularly for years. What I love about it is the peace, tranquility and charm in decor that I find here. As you enter Authenticity you leave the worries of the everyday behind and step into a different world and time. What a previlige to have access to such a Historic building, once only reserved for...

I stayed at the spa on a Scoopon, but there were others who had payed full tote, I felt sorry for them. The idea of the facility is great, but I think poor management has lead to it being not at all in line with how much it costs to stay there. The room I stayed in was beautifully appointed,... More

This does not have the feel of a spa retreat and it is not value for money. The massage was very average; breakfast only cold buffet, cold pot of tea and coffee has to be purchased! If you are not vegetarian, meals become a challenge...and this for quite a extreme price per night.

Unfortunately a disappointment. Nice old house but a bit faded and jaded. The staff are helpful but owners are not at all service-oriented. Gym is an old shed with antique equipment. The massage treatment area is a joke! Massage terrible - I felt worse afterwards than before! This is not a spa, more a glorified and overpriced B&B. These guys... More

I purchased a special 'group buy' deal for a two day retreat at Authenticy Health and Wellness Retreat, so at the price I paid it was reasonable. However, if you're thinking about treating yourself at the normal rate, I'd say think again! Port Elliot is a lovely spot, but the retreat is a couple of km's away from the main... More

The booking process almost put us off altogether - disjointed and unorganized and asked for the same information mutlie times. Lovely peaceful grounds and a great old house, but no In room toilets, shared bathrooms, no fridges. Food is all vegetarian and nice though 2 courses were heavily garlic loaded. Breakfast basic and oter than toast or tea all cold... More
