I cannot say enough how comfortable and relaxing our three night stay at the "Koopalanda" Spa Chalet was. We arrived in the late afternoon, and straight away collected the key to our private chalet. We could park literally at our door - yay! As we entered, we noticed how bright and sparkling clean it was, something that makes a big impact on whether I relax or not. The kitchen was excellently equipped with everything including wine glasses...important. We moved the outdoor setting onto our landing to survey the property. The view was stunning, looking out over rolling hills. Native birds hung out on our landing and the weather was lovely. By the end of the trip we had worked out that we overlooked a paintball field! We didn't see anyone though, as trees covered the area. The first evening, we immediately tried out the spa and were not disappointed - the spa is set in the bedroom overlooking large windows (with a remote controlled blind) so you can take in the view while you soak. It was large and comfortable for the three of us. (Us and our kid) The bed was INCREDIBLE. We have a swanky king bed at home, so usually we have a worse time away than at home, but I don't know where this soft, plushy queen bed came from...heaven... Seriously considering calling to find out where I can buy one. We were all unwell our weekend away, so having a soft bed to sleep it off was amazing. There is A LOT of natural light in the morning though, we wake up this early anyway so it wasn't a big deal at all. Bathroom and shower were super clean and worked great. Hot water was abundant, however on the first night, something tripped the switch and we had to flip it in the morning. No big deal as it didn't happen again. The whole holiday was comfortable and felt so private, we knew there were caretakers close by if we needed them - but we weren't bothered by a soul. LOVELY! Only on leaving did I realise that they have a BYO Horse arrangement - for all the trails in the area...if only I had a horse.... The price for staying here was amazing, given the luxury of the chalet, however as we stayed on the weekend that a management handover was occurring, we were advised that the price was set to increase soon. Even given that information, I would 100% book this again and 100% recommend you do the same. You won't be disappointed. THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL TIME!!! ***Not suitable for small children or people who cannot easily go up and down a narrow spiral staircase. ****The sofa is a fold out bed for a guest.
