There's a lot to like about this place: the stunning location, spacious villas, good food, excellent spa.

But: this resort is eye-wateringly expensive. What sets places that cost this sort of money apart is the quality of the service, and what I experienced at this resort was surprisingly lacking. The staff here are numerous and well meaning, but there is a serious lack of polish. From frequent minor niggles to a poorly handled maintenance issue that disrupted our sleep, I often felt like I was dealing with students at a hospitality college rather than with staff members at a fine resort.

Overall my experience at Wolgan Valley was just a bit disappointing. If you're planning to spend vast sums of money for that "perfect" holiday, there are better places to do it.
