Reviews
Stunning property and home
Holly K - 11th February 2024We loved The Casa. It was as beautiful and stylish as the photos, plus much more. Well appointed, with lots of games and activities and sports equipment for kids. And minutes from Kangaroo Valley shops and restaurants.
We had a wonderful stay at The Casa.
James - 21st January 2024The house is beautiful with an abundance of natural sunlight, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The kitchen exceeded our expectations- fully-stocked for us to cook and prepare meals together. The highlight of our trip was dining outdoors and delighting in the birdsong and greenery. We loved playing basketball and enjoyed long walks around the property. Sipping coffee on the balcony upstairs became a cherished daily ritual. Our heartfelt gratitude for the wonderful experience!
Absolute luxury and bliss
Joshua - 14th January 2024From the views to the Decor through to the inclusions / amenities this was was such a stand out. So many pleasant surprises not in photos when we arrived made it even more spectacular. The house itself is phenomenal with a great layout and sleeping arrangements. It was so thoughtfully stocked with absolutely everything we could possibly think of needing. Fly spinners were a great find! The activities court was exceptional as was the pizza oven and plunge pool / cabana area. Wik Def be back!!
Great venue, family friendly!
Roy - 30th December 2023What a wonderful and relaxing home and location! This was the perfect family retreat we needed to help us unwind, but also maintain the fun levels for all family members. With ample indoor and breathtaking outdoor spaces, there is no shortage of both privacy and social setting for when other family and friends joined us. The endless naturally rich and native surroundings help peel the stress levels, and the guest kangaroos hopping past at dusk during one outdoor dinner setting added to the surreal and natural escape. The tennis court, cricket net and plunge pool kept the kids, of all ages, entertained and occupied and add to the many additional natural pursuits available for those seeking to keep up exercise levels. The town is a surprising short drive for those forgotten personal essentials and we loved the antique book and music store! We hope to return soon!
We had an incredible stay at The Casa!
Irene - 17th December 2023The location is breathtaking, surrounded by beautiful and peaceful surroundings, creating an idyllic setting for a perfect getaway. The plunge pool and cabana were delightful, and the tennis court added a lot of fun to our stay. The serene pond with lilies added to the tranquility. Inside, the accommodation was impeccable, with immaculate amenities and spacious interiors that truly impressed. The welcome hamper and attention to detail throughout the property made our experience even more special. Highly recommend The Casa for a memorable and relaxing retreat!
Magical Holiday Stay
Danielle A - 13th October 2023Incredible property - would come back in a heartbeat! 3 generations of family enjoyed this stay...private, tranquil & comfortable. So many great aspects to explore & enjoy from the pool to the pizza oven...we had a ball! Beautifully furnished, lovely linens to special touches on arrival...thank you for having us!
Family gatherings
Scott P - 24th July 2023An amazing property for the whole family from 2 to 70 .The children never stopped exploring and playing on the 7acres .The 5 separate bedrooms and the bunk room worked perfectly.Definitely will be back Thanks
Thank you for such a wonderful home!
Angela - 29th January 2023Thank you for providing us with a wonderful homestay in Kangaroo Valley. We found the home to be well designed and very relaxing, it provided all the modern comforts we needed, plenty of room, and the outdoor areas have beautiful views of the mountains which helped us escape. The cabana and plunge pool were ideal for us to cool down on a hot day and took us to our own paradise. What made our stay enjoyable was the fact that we did not need to go anywhere and we felt like we truly had unwound on our departure.
So Beautiful
Katie - 5th January 2023“We had the most wonderful time at this gorgeous property. We’ve left with so many happy, precious memories. The house is perfectly set up for groups to enjoy gathering together. We were with another family and our young son - he loved the pool, the upstairs area with the pool table and games area. The house itself is stunning but at the same time very comfortable for our family. It was so wonderfully relaxing being able to sit anywhere and be surrounded by beautiful green hills and the sounds of nature. We all enjoyed the fire pit to roast marshmallows in the evening while looking out at the beautiful Kangaroo Valley landscape. The rooms were just lovely - we slept so soundly. It’s only a couple minutes drive to Kangaroo Valley town. Everything was gorgeous. We couldn’t have imagined a more beautiful place to stay!” Thank you again for having us!
Relax & Enjoy
Fiona - 31st December 2022Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at the Casa with two other families. I was blown away by the immaculate interior design and spaciousness of the house. It is hard to imagine feeling relaxed with 9 young kids running around - but the Casa made it possible! With enormous beautiful grounds, plunge pool and several rooms to relax - there was plenty of space for us all to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Kangaroo Valley. The immaculate details of the house (and the beautiful Casa products) gives it a real resort feel. I highly recommend for families or large groups looking for a beautiful, relaxing escape to the country.
Beautiful home and perfect for families
Jacqueline P - 18th November 2022We had a wonderful weekend at the Casa. It was great for a group of families. Will be back.
Great place for a large group
Sarah B - 6th November 2022Lovely spacious living areas and the big outdoor tables were just prefect to laze around on and chat. The house is beautifully presented. Such a lively location, private and relaxing
Amazing Stay
Karen J - 14th April 2022This was the most perfect house for our 10adults and 10 children. The house is absolutely beautiful and extremely clean with every amenity and we especially loved the pizza oven!
A Must Stay! Perfect in Everyway!
Julianne W - 16th February 2022Our stay at The Casa exceeded all of our expectations and will definitely be returning. The setting and facilities enabled us to relax and thoroughly enjoy our weekend away. Thank you!
Beautiful gem in Kangaroo Valley
Alexandra M - 14th December 2021What a stunning property! Everything has been so carefully curated it just feels effortless. The great atrium windows bring the outside in, and they've absolutely thought of everything you could need for a comfortable stay. The kids loved it too. Easy communication and check in, and were responsive during the stay too. We'll cherish our stay here, thank you.
AhhhMazing!
cathy m - 8th November 2021What a gorgeous house, magic location, and beautifully furnished. The beds are super comfortable, the sheets and bath towels are top quality. On arrival it felt like we were walking into a magazine shoot. Our party of 16 with both adults and kids had a fabulous time in the house, the pool cabana and the pool. We used every part of the house there were many areas to find solace and just chill.
