Attended a wedding here over 2 days. The location is outstanding. Feels like you are looking at a photoshopped landscape it’s that unreal. The service at Blanket Bay is impeccable. Steph the manager went above and beyond to make our stay amazing. All the staff gave service with a nice personal touch and were very efficient and polite. Also big shout out to Paul who went the extra mile to make our stay memorable. They also accommodated the vegans in attendance remarkably. Their food was to the same high standard as everyone else, world class. Would highly recommend this place, literally perfect. Loved every second of it.

This is my new favorite hotel in the world. The staff were impeccable - Sebastian the amazing sommelier, Jaden the classy bartender, Charlize the kind person who saw me freezing after a jet boat ride and spontaneously brought me tea and cookies. The food was spectacular. Management treated me like I was the only guest, instead of one of many, falling over themselves to make sure my stay was perfect. I met interesting people here. The grounds are gorgeous. I can't say enough about this hotel.
