"Highly recommend the Wildlife Retreat at Taronga Zoo. We loved everything about it! We had a sanctuary view room and enjoyed watching the koala outside our room balcony. The service and tours were great. Dinner at Me-Gal was excellent, and drinks from the bay in the lobby lounge were good too."

"We stayed 3 nights at WBH to attend a nearby wedding and were pleasantly surprised by the level of friendly service and the well-designed rooms. The location has a good blend of being reasonably close to things but also a relaxed area to do some walks and enjoy some good scenery. Would gladly stay again."

"What a fabulous property. The grounds were well kept. The staff were friendly and accommodating at check-in. From that first interaction, I knew it was going to be a great stay. The kids were happy to just play in our condo or having a swim - hopping between the indoor/ outdoor pools. We had a relaxing weekend and next time we’re here I want to try the day spa and make it to the beach. "

"We had a wonderful one night stay at the Wildlife Retreat. From the moment we checked in, we were well looked after and in awe of the beauty and peacefulness of this place. Breakfast was amazing - food was high quality and the view was spectacular! The only negative was the dinner we had at the lounge bar - nothing to rave about and the chicken burgers were dry and made of thigh meat (for $31 would expect breast fillet). If I knew it was thigh we wouldn’t have ordered it. The pizza was very average and way too cheesy. The wine was spot on though!
Overall, would highly recommend to stay at this retreat - we loved it 😃"
"Nice view of the water and the apartment block next door. Fairly spacious. Showing its age and proximity to the ocean with the wear and tear. But overall a comfortable stay for a young family. "
"The room and bathroom were immaculate, housekeeping excellent, desk staff friendly and helpful. Did not have occasion to use the bistro,so can't comment on that. The free morning shuttle to catch the Metro at Crows Nest is an excellent service, most helpful. It would be even better if you could book a pickup from Crows Nest in the afternoon. All in all, deserves its 4.5* rating. Would certainly stay here again."
"The hotel was lovely, very reasonably priced and included breakfast too, I had a short visit but really enjoyed it, I will try out the bar and restaurant next time😀"
