    We booked this trip over a year ago so there was a lot of anticipation. We were celebrating my husband's 30th birthday and could not have chosen a better stay. Everything was impeccable. There was plenty of supply for our breakfast and the Larder was full of all sorts of goodness from the Yarra Valley region. Not to mention the infinite amount of wines to choose from. The views are breathtaking and the cabin is so cozy that you barely wanna leave. Lots of wildlife around the cabin as well. Rebecca was an incredible host even before our arrival as we chatted on the phone and on text as well. We had a minor issue with our A/C and Rebecca was super on top and got someone to sort it out in less than 24h. I would recommend Kangaroo Ridge Retreat to all my friends and to anyone who wishes to enjoy some quiet and peaceful time in nature while eating delicious snacks and sipping on wonderful wines. We will definitely be back in the future. Thanks, Rebecca! Cheers, Larissa and Gian.

    My partner and I stayed here to celebrate his birthday. He wanted a relaxing weekend away & that is exactly what he got! The views are amazing, the bbq pack and wine was delicious, the bed comfortable, the wood fire heater made it so cozy. We can't wait till we return.

    What a sensational weekend! Kangaroo Ridge Retreat is a very special place. We felt so relaxed ~ looking out into the beautiful valley from the balcony, bath or bed. Plenty of wood to keep you toasty of an evening & a cute array of records to listen to. And wow, the wine selection, gorgeous to see Rebecca & co supporting local businesses! Thank you thank you thank you!

    We spent 4 nights here recently and are still talking about how wonderful it was! The location, the comfort of the cabins, the outstanding and personal service plus all the little extras. It was a 10 out of 10 experience. Definitely get the dinner packs, the produce is incredible and delicious and you will have plenty of leftovers too! If we are ever in this area again we will for sure be staying with Kangaroo Ridge Retreat 😀

    Firstly, I want to say a great thank you to Rebecca and team for such a wonderful experience I had at Kangaroo Ridge Retreat! Sorry it took awhile for me to write this review. Rebecca had been such a great host, super responsive and gave great pointers for us even before our actual stay at the retreat. My partner and I wanted something different and away from the city. And we both agreed that the stay we had here was PERFECT! Waking up to such lovely view in the morning, being in the nature. Not to forget, the sky full of stars at night. I’m so so glad that my partner found this place for our holiday and this definitely will not be our last time back to Kangaroo Ridge. We can’t wait to be back again! Thank you once again for the amazing stay!

    My wife and I spent two nights here and it was the highlight of our 2 weeks in Australia along with Craig’s wine tour. Rebecca has great communication from booking to check out. The cabin is very cozy and she has thought of everything. It’s the little details and small touches that put this over the top along with the view. Food and drinks were great!

    Rebecca and the team at Kangaroo Ridge have an incredible thing going here. My partner and I received a voucher to stay as a gift and were not disappointed. From the beginning to end we had a seamless and relaxing stay - they really have thought of everything. Gorgeous, secluded location with stunning views, all the amenities you could need and the larder was wonderful! We hadn't intended to purchase much but couldn't resist the wine and local food items that were on offer. Rebecca responded to my questions promptly and we felt very well taken care of.

    I couldn't recommend Kangaroo Ridge more highly. The communication on arrival (and before, and after!) was excellent, and meant that we had a really good idea what to expect from our stay. My partner and I loved the views, the serenity and the wildlife. It's perfect for a romantic getaway as the fridge & wine cellar is well stocked (and at very respectable prices), which means that you can tour Healesville & surrounds without ever leaving your room. The cabin was perfectly clean, tidy, and well provisioned (including bathroom products etc.), and with so many thoughtful extras and finishing touches - it's clear lots of work has gone into making the experience truly special. Thanks team for the brilliant mini-break!

    We booked with Kangaroo Ridge Retreat to have a relaxed, no fuss, weekend. Any expectations that we had were blown away! This was an absolutely fantastic experience and one that we did not want to end. Everything had been thought of and catered for, from the excellent communication prior to our arrival to the notes throughout the cabin making navigating the products that much easier. The range of food and wines within the cabin were amazing, all with a tasting note and explanation so you knew what you were getting into. Loved the range of locally sourced items, allowing us to experience more of what the Yarra Valley had to offer. The view - both during the day and star gazing at night - breath-taking. Sitting in the spa or relaxing on the balcony, there was always a vista to admire. If you are looking for the most relaxing and indulgent weekend away from the hustle and bustle of the world then book this place, its incredible.

    Great location with beautiful views and top hospitality. Stunning cabin that was the perfect place for our wedding night. Beautifully decorated with lights and flowers that matched our wedding colours. The crew at kangaroo ridge was amazing, especially Rebecca. The views are one of a kind and we enjoyed every bit of it.

    Highly recommended for anyone seeking a romantic and secluded break away from responsibilities. The Ridge took care of all the necessities, and the in house massage service was an excellent added indulgence for our anniversary. We did have to share the BBQ with a lovely lady spider who was hiding from the rain- so I would advise travelers that aren't familiar with Australian wildlife that Huntsman are Friends! They eat the dangerous spiders- so seeing such a big protective spider was actually quite comforting!
