"Amazing stay at La Villa Retreat. So gutted we had only booked for one night as we had to move onto the next place. The grounds, the accommodation, and the service was incredible. We will certainly be booking again!"
"We visited during the offseason in the month of July and loved our stay. The property is beautiful, clean and comfortable and we’d love to come back - maybe in warmer weather next time! The staff were also helpful and friendly. Restaurant food was great and wine was some of the best we had in town! "

"We stayed at Mont Rochelle for our 3 year wedding anniversary trip, and it was truly unforgettable. When planning, we narrowed our choices down to La Residence or Mont Rochelle, and we couldn’t be happier with our decision. From the moment we arrived, we immediately felt the warmth and hospitality of the team.
A special mention goes to Peter, whose energy and enthusiasm could be felt from the moment we met him—you could hear his voice from across the property, and his positivity instantly set the tone for our stay. He not only made us feel welcome but also gave us excellent recommendations for local wineries and even arranged a fantastic dinner reservation at Leeu Estate, which was a highlight of our trip.
The property itself is absolutely stunning—surrounded by vineyards and mountains, it feels like a serene escape. Our room was beautiful and thoughtfully prepared with anniversary goodies from the manager, Annette, who also took the time to personally greet us at breakfast, which made the experience feel even more special.
Every detail, from the attentive service to the relaxed yet elegant vibe, made our stay exceptional. We left feeling so cared for and already can’t wait to return—perhaps in the summer or during harvest season to experience Mont Rochelle in a different light."
"Just wonderful! We loved staying in the farmhouse. The farm is great and beautiful. The staff are so helpful and kind. We loved every minute of our stay. "
