Detailed Reviews
Three night stay during the week, rooms were clean, welcoming touches with a bottle of local wine, glasses, flowers, some art on the wall- prints from the winery namesake of the units, kitchen well equipped although need to bring oils spices etc , salt n pepper and ground coffee and Twinings tea supplied along with a couple of small boxes of milk. Must admit couldn't get the sound system to work but TV picks up Netflix and Youtube but wifi connections for browsing not available or if so didn't find the access. Linen is crisp and clean and bathroom has a bath spa for those in the need for such. Location convenient for food; Indian/Mexican over the road, pub a short walk along with some restaurants and cafes and good old pizza and fish and chippery.
The Vales wineries are an easy drive and one can plot a course to sweep through within a couple of days and be well served for doing so. Likewise Willunga for more pubs, organic cafes and whimsical old world charm.
Mellowed, flavoursome McLaren Vale reflected in the apartments layout and offerings.

We have relatives in McLaren Vale and visit regularly from interstate. Having tried several places over the years we find these studios apartments the best. They are spacious, very clean and well positioned in the centre of town. The small outdoor barbecue and table setting attached to each apartment are delightful spot to sit and enjoy the rural atmosphere.
Although we were supplied with almost everything we needed, we would like to see a few small improvements. For the nightly rate, a coffee machine or at the very least a coffee plunger and good coffee would be appropriate rather than the instant coffee sachets provided. There is a good size clothing rack but only 2 or 3 hangers to go with it. There were 2 sinks and 2 hand towels in the bathroom area but only one of the sinks had a hook for the towel. Otherwise, we were very comfortable!

Thank you for your feedback, Jayne. We're delighted that you find that our studio apartments are 'the best'. Our rate is very competitive as we continally check against our competitiors and we rate very well. Each apartment is equipped with a full kitchen with a coffee plunger in each villa and we supply sachet, instant coffee, etc as basic start up supplies. We are a declared 'self-catered' accommodation and do encourage our valued guests to head over to the excellent coffee shop across the road or the bakery just up the road to support businesses in great need of our guests' custom. All businesses are struggling at the moment and we promote our local community businesses.

We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed our stay. The apartments have everything that you need and now includes wifi. The beds were comfortable and you can use the kitchen for cooking or outdoor bbq for cooking. Good location to be able to walk down the main street to cafes, supermarket and tourist attractions.

I am full of complimentary thoughts and thanks to Dee for her outstanding customer service and for the location and condition of the studio apartments. When I and my friends first booked the apartments three years ago, little did we think it would not be till Nov ‘22 that we would be able to finally stay.
Dee kept agreeing to postpone our booking without any hassle at all, and when we finally arrived, we felt so welcome. The apartments are spacious; all the comforts of home are present; there is a most welcome bottle of wine and we were able to walk to nearby eateries. Dee had given us nearby apartments so we were able to easily move from one to the other. We were at the back so there was no problem with road noise.
A great stay. Thanks

We only had two nights here but could easily have had at least one more day. The apartment has excellent facilities and decor. Quiet convenient location in the main street. Bed was comfortable and plenty of room for the two of us. There was a double bed in the lounge area if two couples wanted to share and would be roomy enough. BBQ,washing machine dryer were all available but as we only has a short stay we did use them. I would recommend them.

Thanks Neil for your great review. We are really happy that you were impressed with the villas and found them very welcoming, well equipped and comfortable. We are glad that you enjoyed the fabulous complimentary bottle of premium McLaren Vale wine from one of our six wine sponsors. The villas are certainly well located in the Main Street of McLaren Vale and within easy walking distance to cafes, restaurants and some cellar doors. Thanks for recommending us and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

What greater way to make a birthday special than booking a few units so we could all get away? McLaren Vale is superb at the moment. Dinner at the classy pub restaurant - only about 100m away. The units are fabulous and very reasonably priced. I will be going back!

It was fantastic to have Gabby and her family for her family's special event. Gabby's group followed house rules and left things in very good shape. We are looking forward to having Gabby and/or her family stay with us on her next visit to our gorgeous McLaren Vale wine region. Bring some more friends!

I have never stayed anywhere so well stocked, the small pantry items, the range of tea and coffee, the plentiful crockery and utensils - included all the amenities. Also in a great, quiet location even though on the main street. Great location on the Main Street and in close proximity to many wineries. The bottle of red was enjoyable. Would definitely recommend this to friends and family.

Stayed for three nights over weekend. Luckily got one of the rear apartments but road noise was not high in any case. The apartment was very clean and had everything you needed for a great weekend. Close to all wineries and fantastic restaurants. Bed was comfortable and big (king size methinks). Recliner seats helped recover from those hectic wine tasting trips. The apartments are situated in the Main Street close to the hotel, another winery (Hardy’s), plenty of cafes and restaurants and shops. It’s a wonderful base for visiting the Vale. Willunga farmers market on Saturday morning is a must. Again easy to get to. Well worth a visit and stay.
