Peaceful retreat
We enjoyed our time at Wilderness by the Sea - the location was close enough to Margaret River town while also being far enough away to be peaceful and surrounded by the bush.We had a largish group of 6 adults and 3 children, one not yet 2. The facilities were great for the adults, we loved the spa and collection of sports equipment. However, the sunken kitchen and dining area meant we had to continually monitor a very active toddler in case they fell over the half metre drop. Baby gates were provided for the stairs up to the bedrooms which was extremely helpful. The host was lovely and quick to respond, check in and out were easy and the mattresses comfortable.

Wilderness house
The house was our base for some cape to cape walking. The big dining table and well equipped kitchen gave us space for long dinners discussing our day. We walked in and out of the house as the track is close. There was plenty of parking. The host was quick to respond to my questions. Location is great. Thanks for having us.

Fantastic place for 3 generations of our family to spend Easter. Plenty of room for us all and lots of things to keep the kids occupied. Cricket game on the volleyball area, crafting around the large table, soaking up the hot tub and taking the grandkids spot lighting for possums.

Boys Weekend chill getaway
A weekend break to slow and wind down from life's daily stresses. This property allowed us to do just that. Plenty of space and amenities, hot tub, darts, table tennis, pool table, volley ball net. So options to do as much or as little as you wanted to. The log fire really warmed up the whole house and even though we went in winter, it was cozy inside. Close enough to shops, beach, wineries, nature tails. A great place to stay and would thoroughly recommend it and also stay again.

Wilderness by the Sea Winter Escape
Great accomodation. Easy check in and Spa, pool table, table tennis all great extras. Beds are comfy. Some bedrooms fairly small. Rammed Earth and slate/wooden floors. A little tired and dated, but that was not a concern of ours. Outside areas, like bbq area could do with a spruce up. If a large group staying, more utesils like ladles and tongs and a large fruit bowl could be handy. Great fireplace with lots of precut wood and kindling.
