Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Clean, spacious but not offering the typical motel ammenities ( though spa bath in Deluxe rm was good). Rather dated with noisy aircon. Dark rm in winter but surrounds outside were spectacular and complimentary wine tasting, well worth the stay.
Very happy staff. Marty in the cellar door is informative and entertaining. Parking is a breeze and the accommodation was quiet when we went and it was booked out!
Highly recommend Sarefino.
Serafino was a comfortable option for our overnight stay in Mclaren Vale. The room was large and the bed was huge and comfortable. The motel style room was clean and in good condition, however a small kitchenette with a microwave would have been handy. The restaurant was not open the night we were there and Serafino is a little out of town, so we walked 20 minutes to a restaurant in the evening.
The restaurant was really lovely - recommend it for dinner. Staff were also very welcoming. Great to see all the birds around the premises and also great it was close to a walking/ biking trail. Would definitely go again.
Room was comfortable, bed was huge. Loved the wines and tunes (great solo singer/ guitarist at the cellar door) and got to meet Mr Serafino over a wine. Great stay.
Lovely hotel in stunning grounds. Friendly reception staff. Great to be able to hire bikes to cycle the reusking trail. Some complacency amongst the cleaning team which I believe is outsourced so it wasn’t up to the usual standards which is why I’ve marked it down. Beds were nice and comfortable though and facilities were good. A lovely pool if a little cold 😊
Beautiful quiet. Rooms are quite spacious although a little dated. But for the price you pay excellent value for money. Staff was very warm and welcoming especially Hope. Would definitely stay there again.
