Reviews and Ratings
We had a lovely stay in our one-bedroom spa suite with beautiful views across the vineyards and Yarra Valley, topped off by romantic touches for our anniversary. The spa facilities were enjoyable, and the staff were accommodating. However, breakfast was a letdown with limited options and slow service, which made us opt for dining out instead. Overall, it was a nice getaway, but improvements in the dining experience are definitely needed.
I recently attended an event at Balgownie Estate Resort & Spa, and it was an amazing experience! The staff was incredibly professional and attentive, ensuring everything went smoothly. The food was exceptional and perfectly paired with their wines, but my stay was slightly marred by a few staff members who seemed disinterested. Overall, it's a great venue for special occasions with stunning grounds, though improvements in service consistency would enhance the experience even more.
I had a comfortable stay in the winery region of Victoria, with a fabulous location and large room. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, as both service and food quality were disappointing. While the room was spacious and clean, the restaurant's performance was underwhelming, making it a mixed experience overall.
I had a mixed experience at this resort. While the property itself is lovely and the gardens are beautiful, I was quite disappointed with our room's cleanliness and the initial service we received. However, a staff member named Robert stepped in to help and turned our stay around, which I truly appreciated. The dining options were great, and I enjoyed a lovely meal after some wine tasting.
I really enjoyed my stay at Balgownie Estate. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect and the food was delicious, especially the omelette I had for breakfast. However, some aspects of the room left a bit to be desired, as it felt dated and could use more attention in terms of cleanliness. The location is lovely with beautiful views, but the rooms don't quite match that charm. Overall, it was a nice experience, but there is room for improvement.
