Excellent resort

The accommodation, food and service were all exceptionally good. Their wines are also very good and I highly recommend their wine matching with dinner. The property is exceptionaly well maintained.

Hi there
Thank you for taking the time to provide Jackalope with a five star review - we very much appreciate it. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed our LL Vineyard wines and were able to have the matching wine option whilst dining in our hatted restaurant Doot Doot Doot. Our Maintenance Manager will also be thrilled to hear your feedback on the condition of the hotel.
Thanks again and we hope to welcome you back soon.
Kind regards
Clare Hoffman, General Manager

Jackelope crossed off the bucket list.

The view from our room was excellent while everything else was good. Staff were friendly and helpful, the location is good, the breakfasts were good.
Ned was comfortable and the room a good size. Decor is minimalistic with black and neon accents.

Hello
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay - and especially that you were able to cross us off your bucket list.
We do hope we have the chance to welcome you back again - perhaps in the summer, when the vineyard is leafy green?

Extremely disappointed

Stunning property and above average room. Disappointing experience. The room had a rattle in it related to the fridge and air con system that went off 30 times through the night. In addition we were told the spa would be at 36 degrees, it was not and was freezing. They warmed it up and finally at 9.30pm after it would typically be closed it was warm. This was after our dinner when we didn't really want to go. Now the dinner- doot doot- over priced, bland rubbery food. The menu did not clearly state there would be a 10% weekend surcharge, nor did the staff state it. The abalone was like rubber- we told the server and never heard anything back about it, I have ate abalone many times and this was plain and simple overcooked and cooked wrongly. This was a anniversary weekend and was really a waste of $1100 for one night. The meal was $440 and the food was so bland and small. We made the staff aware who just kept saying happy anniversary, but they didn't do anything about it. In addition the trip included wine tasting that was done like an express visit, one glass was offered for the whole wine taste and no washing out or new ones given. Would not recommend this place and would not be keen to come back- so bitterly disappointed. i know the comment will get met with a thanks for your feedback from management and we will give feedback to the relevant areas, but really that is not enough- for an experience that was supposed to be special and 5 stars it was barely a 2 but cost 6 stars.

Hi there
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we're very sorry that your anniversary celebration didn't live up to what you had hoped for.
Reading your feedback, it's clear that a number of things went wrong throughout your stay. We can completely understand why you left feeling disappointed, especially after choosing Jackalope for such a special occasion.
We're particularly sorry to hear that your comments about the abalone wasn't followed up during your dinner service. Regardless of whether we can resolve an issue in the moment, our team should always acknowledge concerns and make every effort to ensure guests feel heard. Likewise, we apologise if the weekend surcharge wasn't made clear and if the wine tasting felt rushed.
This isn't the experience we want any guest to have, and certainly not one celebrating an anniversary. We'd genuinely appreciate the opportunity to speak with you directly and better understand your visit. If you would be willing, please contact us at hello@jackalopehotels.com with your booking details so our management team can personally follow up.
Thank you again for your honest feedback. While we know we've fallen short on this occasion, we do appreciate you giving us the opportunity to learn and improve from your experience.

We had a lovely 3 night stay in a terrace room. Jackalope is a fantastic hotel with awesome staff. Nothing is too much trouble for them from the turn down service to the transfers to nearby restaurants. The room was spacious, very clean and wonderfully quiet for a great sleep in the very comfortable bed. The complimentary and restocked minibar is a nice bonus. If you want a night in, there's movies with popcorn and icecream.
On site breakfast is exceptional and very filling. They will happily accommodate any diet requirements off the menu too.
When you stay, don't forget to dine at Rare Hare and have a wine tasting.
I highly recommend Jackalope and we'll be back!
