We loved staying at beautiful Arabella! The golf course was immaculate and we loved getting spa treatments as well. The food at the hotel was also 5 star and service was amazing. Beautiful property! We would definitely recommend staying here and coming here again!

Beautiful location, stunning golf course, friendly staff, lovely spa treatments. For the class of the hotel it is beginning to a bit tired. Restaurant food disappointing for the standard of the hotel.

Wonderful getaway for the Easter weekend
Lovely, comfortable stay for 2 nights. The resort, grounds and surrounding estuary/ wetlands are beautiful. Welcoming and friendly staff especially in the lounge area. Child friendly which was a major plus for us. The staff are very attentive and go out of their way to accomodate you. Awesome breakfasts with a good variety of options. The lady making the flapjacks/ pancakes deserves a shoutout! Absolutely delicious! Not to mention the ladies manning the egg stations! The eggs benedict and omlettes were spot on! Rooms are comfortable and clean. Overall great facilities and highly recommended. We would definitely return. And not to forgot - the live entertainment both on Saturday and Sunday evening were great! Thank you for an awesome stay Arabella!
