We stayed at "Vienna" for two nights and didn't want to leave! It was our first 'kid free' weekend and we had the most relaxing, romantic time. The bed was so comfy and the TV was like have a cinema in bed with us. The shower was phenomenal and the view was incredible! We loved every moment and appreciated all the extra attention to detail and helpfulness that David gave us.

Very unique place and very clean. Lovely view and quiet area. My only complaint would be one wash cloth for all 3 nights of our stay. It would have been nice to have one for each day. There was no daily room service since it was self contained. We stayed in the Vienna which only had a small kitchenette with very small fridge and no stovetop. Just saying if you plan to cook breakfast in which we enjoy doing and dining out for lunch & dinner.

We loved our stay in this very stylish, luxurious and high tech accommodation, in a beautiful setting overlooking a ridge of bushland. No detail has been overlooked. Immaculately clean with excellent facilities.

My wife and I spent 4 nights in the extremely well equipped and super stylish Vienna, a converted shipping container in a small group that has been given a lot of love and pizazz to turn it into a great place to base yourself and a loved one for a few nights. Provisions and supplies were generous, tech worked seemlessly and was well documented, bed was super comfy and the views were sublime. Hosts were always available and helpful. The location is on a main road on one side and perched on a valley top on the other. The main road though is very quiet and you wouldn’t know it was there. The bathroom is open (including the toilet) but there is some visual privacy. It’s just on the edge of Hepburn Springs (3 min drive or 20 min walk) and only 10 min drive from Daylesford. Lots of nice café’s, restaurants and country walks so great for a short break. We always looked forward to coming back to the accommodation in the evening though as it was such a nice place to hang out. Highly recommended.

This is an architectural beauty, where no detail has been spared. The design of the property is incredibly unique with glass floors overlooking feature creeks and nature, sun rooms with day beds, beautiful graffiti and artwork from top artists, super designer lighting, and luxurious fittings through out. The owners have spared no expense, and have gone above and beyond to create something really special. I would give 6 stars if I could. I feel very privileged to have been able to experience such a unique stay.

Yep, this is the real deal. So special that we'll be coming back again soon. Dave & Mani have built something really special here.

Luxurious in every way. Who would have thought de-commissioned shipping containers two hours from any sea faring vessel or dockyard could not only fit so seamlessly into the Australian bush, but also be transformed into modern high spec accommodation whilst maintaining their structural integrity? Amazing! Very comfortable bed, sparklingly clean, thoughtful touches throughout ... if Victoria's spa and massage capital is your destination this is the place to stay.

What a remarkable experience staying in one these shipping containers! We were after something unique, yet that had the WOW factor as well, and The Vienna (that we stayed in) was just PERFECT for the two of us! No expense spared, and it shows! Highly recommended to stay for couples. We only stayed one night due to work commitments, would have been so..... lovely to have enjoyed a second night, another time definitely! Thank you Dave for your prompt and processional communication from the moment the booking was made to our departure, your service matches the accommodation – AMAZING! Happy Guests Chantele & Tom

I booked this place a few months out to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it was so tranquil and relaxing. David was fantastic with communication and the little extras (muesli, chocs, robes and slippers) were so appreciated. The views are spectacular and we spent most of the weekend sprawled on the daybed looking outside at the wildlife and the beautiful surrounds. David kindly suggested the nearby Frank n Connie’s for lunch which was spectacular and everything in Daylesford is just a short drive away. Absolutely loved this and would definitely stay again! Shared a lot on Instagram and everyone was keen to know where this incredible spot was. The architecture and fit out is exquisite and you feel completely remote.

I never want to stay anywhere else!! Clifftop at Hepburn is absolutely gorgeous, it is an amazing place to relax and unwind. The window seat is a perfect spot to sit back, read a book with a glass of wine, and take in the 180 degree view of the landscape. The whole property is welcoming, immaculate and beautifully presented, instantly makes you feel at home, and the bed feels like you're sleeping on a cloud. For the tech-lovers, everything is integrated including the colour of the lighting, the music, tv and playstation. This was hands down the best place we have ever stayed in, and can't wait to come back in the future. Thanks Mani and David!

I had the pleasure of meeting David at checkin and the owners are very nice people. Now that's I've been here, its easy to see why people stop and stare at this stunning accommodation. The outside is great, but the inside lifts it up a whole level again.

The Vienna was absolutely stunning and breathtaking. A calming space for the weekend, where we could just sit and look at the beautiful water running underneath the glass and watch nature. We would definitely love to go back again!

We recently had a 2 night stay for our " mini-moon" after our wedding and loved every aspect of this unique accommodation. The cabins are beautifully and thoughtfully designed and the views are stunning and offered a peacefulness to relax. A truly memorable place, and highly recommend for a special weekend getaway.

Our stay was above and beyond. David and Mani are the ultimate hosts. The place certainly makes you feel so relaxed. Every detail in the place is just amazing. Words aren't good enough, so if you are looking for an absolute getaway (only an hour and 30 minutes away from Melbourne) with the most luxurious design, Clifftop is your go-to.
