ブレイクフリー ウィリナコーブ

Although the staff were polite and accommodating to some extent, the venue IS quite rundown, untidy and well outdated. On arrival we were greeted by a cheerful young man. However, behind the reception desk there was everything from vacuum cleaners, linen, photocopiers, paperwork, high chairs, bags, cleaning products to name a few misplaced things. When we went to our room we were faced with broken windows, leaves in the hallway, bird excrement, and an enormous fan which appeared to be blowing out the musty smell. The room was clean, but very outdated and we were disappointed the TV didn’t work and did not enjoy having to climb into a bath to have a shower! We noticed an al a carte menu in the reception when checking in, however the only choice we were offered was Chinese when we went to order dinner. The food was just acceptable. The drinks were well priced. Then at 8:24pm we were advised they were closing in 20min….. at 8:34pm we told to leave as they were closing. Breakfast was another experience entirely….. the table we sat at for dinner was still uncleaned from the night before, warm iced coffee, uncooked sausage, raw roasted tomatoes, uncooked bacon and ‘forgotten’ orders. Overall a very underwhelming and overpriced experience that will not be repeated any time soon.

Our stay was an overnight in winter so we just experienced the enormous rooms, comfortable beds and silent environments. We understood that the resort should offer much more entertainment in sunny weather but what we got was pleasant and the position quite useful along our ride.

Sincere thanks to Mark and the team for exceptional service. Everyone was so friendly and helpful it really made our stay so enjoyable. We received a golf view room upgrade and room was fresh and clean with very comfy king bed and crisp linen. We dined both nights in the restaurant with delicious Chinese menu, top wine list and views over the golf course complete with the antics of around 20 kangaroos! Again impeccable service! Breakfast also excellent and I recommend the continental plate, such a lovely selection of cereal, fruit , yoghurt and pastries! Also played 18 holes on the on site golf course, very well maintained course. Overall our stay was wonderful and the team were absolutely lovely!

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights while attending a wedding in the area. We chose the resort as I am a Platinum level Accor member, and we honestly had the best time. Firstly, the resort needs some work (pull your finger out Accor). While the grounds are well maintained and the golf course takes centre stage, there’s currently only a few refurbished rooms (of which we stayed in one - room 1). There was nothing wrong with our room and as it was a golf course view room we had an amazing view. I’m not sure about the non refurbed rooms - but other reports are they are a bit dated. The resort only fully operates on a Friday and Saturday night, so for a mid week stay they shut reception at about 4pm and there’s no evening dinner or drink options other than a trip into Normanville or Yankalilla. We receive a call that asked our check in time so that after hours check in procedures could be explained to us (had we been arriving late) We had comp breakfast each day, which was simple but ample. The staff were ALL amazing and did their best to ensure we had a great stay, and if it is wildlife you want, there are Kangaroos on your doorstep. Considering it’s proximity from Adelaide and the KI ferry I am not sure why this place is not packed - and we are already planning a return journey. Relax, unwind at very reasonable prices Oh and the golf course is terrific!

We arrived around 5pm on Friday night to be 'greeted by a welcoming committee' of around 50 grazing kangaroos on the lawns. We were made most welcome by Kathy at reception and stepped into a lovely Golf View room. The airconditioner took little time to take the chill off the room which gave us a wonderful view across the golf course to the imposing hills beyond. They have started to refurbish their rooms and we stayed in the first one and were very impressed. Note: We would still have enjoyed our stay even if we had been given an unfurbished room as the friendly helpful staff and the spectacular natural surroundings made our stay so memorable. We enjoyed some fresh country air as we stepped out onto our balcony and got caught up watching kangaroos feeding and hopping around. We enjoyed chinese meals in the restaurant (see photo of menu) on Friday and Saturday nights. These are the only nights they serve dinner. This maybe because it was in winter time - you would need to check with the hotel on this regarding other more busier months. Fortunately there are places to eat in Normanville and Yankalilla - about 15 minutes drive away. The wood fired combustion heater was not far away from where we ate and we enjoyed a drink after the meal on the couch watching the flames dance around the glowing coals. We enjoyed a comfortable sleep each night awakened only by the birds welcoming the new day. Breakfast is served every morning and there is a choice of continental or cooked. For those who like a big breakfast then choose both! Just off the dining area is a pool table,table tennis and some slot machine games for the kids. Outside there is playground, an excellent 18 hole golf course and mini golf for the whole family to enjoy. There is an outdoor pool, heated spa pool, sauna and gym. On our last night we met up with another family who had decided to sit around the firepit and we spent an enjoyable time with them around the crackling fire. We were sad to leave and will definitely be returning. Thanks to Mark, Cathy, Ralph, Julie, Francis (chef) and Connie who made our stay so memorable. Also if you are travelling to Kangaroo Island on the early ferry or returning on the late ferry this resort is handy for a one night stopover (about a 20 minute drive).
