Saffire Freycinet 

Excellent luxury experience! Rooms were incredible and a highlight. Super comfortable, large bathroom with storage areas. All the details you would expect at a luxury resort (stocked drinks/snacks/housekeeping) We greatly enjoyed walking to the beach (5-10 minutes). Activities were great, we did the boat tour, I was a little nervous as we had our toddler, but it was a super comfortable boat with plenty of space and very safe. Food was incredible, great a la carte options, lunch was slightly more casual, but still very delicious, and I kind of liked this as it felt more relaxed and friendly. Fixed tasting menu also available at dinner if desired. The Hospitality of the staff was top-notch, everyone seemed genuinely excited you were there and made every effort to help with any needs or requests. This is the epitome of luxury hospitality, genuinely good attitude from all staff and efforts to anticipate needs. Never did the staff seem too rushed or busy to help us. I wish I could put the names of the wonderful staff members who helped us, but I don't remember them all. Promote! View is beautiful. Resident devils were fun to go visit/watch. Only suggestion would be an additional functioning high chair as there were 2 available and 2 toddlers, one didn't have a tray, which we were given so we couldn't really use it making meals a bit more hectic. Not really a kid-centric place (this is obvious based on the price), but small families with 1-2 kids would be fine. We loved exposing our kid to the beauty of the views, nature, beach, and just playing in our room. All the staff seemed to like seeing our kid and were so friendly to her. Thanks for a great stay.

If you read no further, just finish this sentence: I've traveled the world over and Saffire Freycinet now tops the list of favorite destinations for the following myriad reasons. The three most important aspects regarding real estate: Location, Location, Location. Okay, well, at Saffire, add this: accommodations, accommodations, accommodations; dining, dining, dining; hospitality, hospitality, hospitality! My "mate" and I enjoyed a superlative time at Saffire from the moment we walked into one of the most breathtaking vistas I've ever seen in a hotel/lodge. It’s such a shame we didn’t plan at least 4, although honestly, we could have spent a month here. It was so magnificent, calm and serene and the unlimited food (everything included in the price) was divine. But what really made this location shine were the people who worked here. Across the board, we were made to feel like we were visiting friends, not bunking at a hotel. I am so, so happy that my Aussie friends from “Melbin” suggested going here. We spent two nights (way too short of a stay) and did adventures like donning a bee-keepers uniform and holding honeycomb from a 40,000 beehive, as well as taking a 12-mile hike into unspoiled landscapes and pristine beaches where we were the only one's swimming and frolicking on the beach. We met adorable Barney the Tassie Devil (and "adopted" him to help save the Tasmanian Devils who are on the verge of extinction due to a rare face cancer), saw wallabies in the wild and feasted our eyes on nature at its best. Our accommodations were just perfect. They are all in a line, all with views, and nothing in front of you to block the view. Floor to ceiling windows afforded a morning awakening like no other. We opted for the plunge pool, which is really a big bathtub, but well worth the extra dollars for relaxing under the southern hemisphere stars. The products in the room were heavenly, and we had a full kitchen stocked with everything we could possibly want and more. We don't drink, but if you do, this is paradise as everything is included and they stock expensive brands of everything from champagne to wine to hard liquor. We wanted ice cream, and they added it to our freezer, they gave us gifts and took care of absolutely everything. I'm sitting in my home in Los Angeles writing this and wondering how quickly I can get back to Saffire, a magical, enchanting and magnificent paradise on earth.

Saffire is a wonderful hotel located in a stunningly beautiful place. Everything about it is perfect, from the first seconds as the doors swing open into the stunning foyer to the the final seconds as you drive away, it is a magical experience. The rooms are beautiful, the food and drink is great and the complimentary experiences so enjoyable. Best of all the staff - so friendly and relaxed yet thoroughly professional and helpful. For us this was a very special treat and we would recommend it to anyone. It is pricey but I feel we got maximum value from our money and would return in a heartbeat. Well done Saffire team, we had the most wonderful time
