Perricoota Vines Retreat

One of the best places we have stayed. Been there a lot of times and will definitely return. So relaxing and peaceful. The spa is amazing. Sit on the deck overlooking the lake. Watch the ducks, see the huge carp come to the surface for a feed. Take a walk through the grounds. Conveniently close to town yet you feel you are away from everything.

We have been visiting Perricoota Vines for well over ten years, as a couple, and also on yearly family Summer holidays. This is the first time we ever cut our trip short, because we were so disappointed. Yes, the grounds are still beautiful. The cleaners do a brilliant job of leaving the rooms immaculate. But other than that no maintenance has gone into this resort for a very long time. The pool is in a bad state- concrete tiles are lifting up and lying around. At one point we witnessed kids picking them up and throwing them around as sinker toys. I suggested to management that they be removed from the area as they were dangerous, but this never happened. On day two of our trip my husband was sitting in a pool chair and it completely broke under him. He ended up badly bruised, bloody, and scratched up. I called management to tell them what had happened and they gave me bandaids and Betadine, then sent me on my way. At no point did they check on my husband. The spa in our room was temperamental. The button for the jets often got stuck and the jets would be stuck on. A cockroach was in the bathroom. And the worst of the worst was the lack of internet. You should not have to sit in your bathroom to check your emails or do your banking. Thank god our son doesn’t rely on the internet for entertainment, because he would have been bitterly disappointed. In the past we have been made to feel like valued guests at Perricoota resort. But now it feels like Management just want our money. They are never in the office, and you need to call their mobile if you have an issue, which leaves you feeling like you are disturbing them. We won’t be staying here again, which is very very sad after ten years of memories.

Great place for quality time with the extended family. Lots to keep the teenagers and young adults entertained (and us older adults too) within the retreat. Short drive in to Echuca with bushwalks by the river, great local shops and the old port. Sad when it came to an end. Would love to make it back some time!

Absolutely beautiful. We had such a lovely relaxing stay. After exploring we returned to relax enjoy our wine and play some pool in the games room before making use of the Courtesy bus from The Moama RSL. Thank you for a beautiful experience

We stayed in a 2 bed garden spa villa with our dogs and it was very spacious with lovely high ceilings and early morning sun. Whilst not modern or new it was still very nice. We really enjoyed the villa, couldn't believe how big it was, with enclosed courtyard, sunroom with a spa, full kitchen with coffee machine and complimentary wine from the local estate. The beds and pillows were very comfy. The grounds had beautiful gardens, tropical feel with lots of decking overlooking the lake, 2 pools, games room, tennis court. Not much else you could ask for. We will be back with the kids next time.

Excellent accommodation. We stayed in a one bedroom lakeside villa, quality finishes, comfortable and spacious. Deck overlooking the lake, gardens and out on to the vineyard. We didn’t use the kitchen, but it was well fitted out. The resort has beautiful gardens. We didn’t use the facilities, but it caters well for all ages and has lots of sitting areas dotted around. Good heating in winter.
