Testimonials -

We hope to come back for 3 days or more.  It is so restful/comfortable and the little touches like the pot pouri; basket of excellent breakfast delights; and to finish off "the night cap" and chocolates; makes it a most enjoyable destination.                                                   Rosemary & Bevan

 

My husband, Dave and I would like to extend our thanks and appreciation for your wonderful hospitality at your villas.  The standard of excellence in the service, housekeeping and quality of villa and everything in it was very high.  We had such a wonderful time and certainly appreciated the quality 'extras', such as the night cap and fluffy towels.              Barb and Dave


Thank you for your hospitality and generosity. The villa was beautiful, the basket breakfast full of fresh products and we had the sun, the birds and the kangaroos as fellow companions. We will spread the word of your little paradise for friends to discover.                                                  Stephen & Anne-Sophie

Just a little note to praise you both on such a wonderful little getaway you have created there. It was so relaxing we didnt get to do half of the things we thought we were going to. The studio and tranquil surrounds were just bliss, along with the delicious breakfast basket, which cooked up fine on the BBQ.
There was really no need to go anywhere else. It was hard coming back to the hustle & bustle of the city. We will try to get back there again, and refer your retreat to others.                                       Tony & Jennifer

Thank you very much for making our stay at 31 the rocks such a memorable experience.  From the warmth of your hostpiality, through to the stylish appointment of the villas, we kept congratulating ourselves on finding such lovely accommodation.  Be warned, we are already checking the diaries for a return visit.                                                                 Sarah J. 

We would like to say thank you for the accommodation provided at 31 the rocks.  The 2 bedroom unit was perfect for our requirements!  The accommodation is spot on and the hosts are extremely helpful which ensures a carefree and splendid weekend.  The breakfast supplied was fantastic!  What a way to spend the morning - bbq breakfast on the balcony with the birds singing.....shame we had to leave.                                            Jo-Anne & Jan W.
