Rydges Resort Hunter Valley
What a perfect stay for a young family (kids 4 and 7). We enjoyed the early check in that was available (at 11:30am even though website said generally the rooms were available from 3pm), but we got lucky that a room was vacant). The pool was the perfect temperature, the water park was so much fun ...

Chateau Elan At The Vintage
It’s always a great get away at Chateau Elan. Love everything about it. Check in was very good, the rooms were very comfortable, clean and well equipped. The view was wonderful and the kangaroos randomly hopping past our door an added bonus. Loved it!

Oaks Cypress Lakes Resort
The amenities in the Elysia wellness centre were amazing. I loved how quiet it was and we were able to swim without children and lots of other people in there
