The food and restaurants here were fantastic. In Friday night there was a singer and guitarist in the Pool Bar. The staff made us feel very welcome. We’ll be going back for our next special celebration. This was for my husband’s 60th. Wonderful✨

Bannisters is our favourite place to visit we absolutely love coming here every year. The rooms are great always clean and such great views, the pool is perfect, it’s so nice and quiet and tranquil - the perfect escape. This time we had our new baby in tow who woke up during our meal at Rick Steins and they were so amazing they just packed up our meal and sent it as room service, no hassle at all. Couldn’t speak more highly of our long weekend away. We had booked through Wotif and were worried after seeing some reviews but called Bannisters, who assured us they had our booking and it was a completely seamless process. We saved $400 going through Wotif so would definitely try to book through them again!

From the moment we walked in we were treated so well. With a complimentary bottle of champagne chilling in our room for our anniversary, a relaxing swim with a spectacular view of the ocean, cocktails by the pool then spa in our room and off to Rick Stein’s for dinner - how could you go wrong. Don’t think twice! You’re worth it! Book it now and you’ll never regret it!

Nice, but not worth the price
The view of the ocean is beautiful. The hotel is small and intimate. The service was great - very friendly staff that made you feel welcome. Food was really good at the pool bar and Rick Stein restaurant. But for the price they charge per night, the hotel is underwhelming. The spa deluxe room was nice, but for the price I expect it and the amenities to be less basic. It seems more a nice motel than luxury hotel, so I would expect the price to be much lower.

Delightful stay, from the lovely greeting on arrival, the breathtaking view, that exceeded expectations, to the amazing food at Rick Stein’s restaurant. Such a wonderful experience, we were planning our next visit during our stay.
