Not as good as usual

Our third visit to O’Reillys. Bad timing for us (no warning from Hotels.com or O’Reillys), as the main building was closed due to refurbishment and many tours were not running. So instead of eating in the nice restaurant and enjoying good meals, we could only use the Mountain Cafe, sitting on metal chairs and choosing from a basic menu. Not even muesli or cereals for breakfast, just cooked breakfasts. Also, our room hasn’t been cleaned properly and the canteen tables were not very clean. But don’t let this put you off coming, as it is a great place for being at home with nature and seeing rainforest birds. Just check with O’Reillys first on their status before booking.

We loved the scenery from our Villa, staff were so friendly and helpful. The Glow Worm tour was spectacular, the walks were safe and accessible especially for our 93yr old Grandma - she loved the Boardwalk. The only issues we had was with our Villa, I have advised the staff of these problems so the next guests do not have this happen to them. We were unable to use the air con in our main room for warmth, which we needed especially for our Grandma who really felt the cold, the shower head was broken, the TV needs to be upgraded, the lounge/carpet needs to be steam cleaned as there was a pungent smell in our room, we had to purchase a fragrant candle from the cafe shop for our room to hide the smell. There also was clothing/baby nappy behind the washing machine, only reason I saw it was because I dropped a sock behind it, I felt the cleanliness of the room could have been better. When we left I could not vacuum as the vacuum hose was no where to be found, so had to manually sweep the whole place out. I did think that the staff might have given us a discount or some sort of refund maybe even for the candle that we had to purchased.

Amazing hotel, we will be back

Lovely villa overlooking stunning rainforest. Beautiful balcony, but unfortunately it was too cold to enjoy it. The villa itself was cold, but we unfortunately arrived in a very cold snap. The hotel facilities were great, with a lovely bar for food (didn’t try the main restaurant). The villa was good for self catering but you need to bring everything with you as only basic supplies in the shop. The walks are incredible and have options for all levels. We did a 20km circuit with stunning waterfalls, bird life and even a python. We will definitely visit again.

Not a great place for vegetarians - expected better from an eco-friendly establishment - lots of meat on the dinner plates and not much else - made harder by the limits on self catering....
