What They Say

Fiona M

Such a wonderful weekend at this retreat. Room was awesome and relaxing. 5 stars for me! The Dining on the Edge was just amazing and compliments to the chef! It was a successful getaway for the birthday man. Highly recommend this retreat to everyone.

Jon M

Recently spent 2 nights at Tumbling Waters Retreat, and could not have had a better experience. The room was lovely with an awesome view, and with everything you could wish for. the Dining on the edge was a master class of beautiful food, a wonderfully charismatic chef, and lovely views. The hosts (Sonja and Andrew) could not have been more helpful.. we will definitely be back.

Peter M

We had the privilege to have been a part of a magnificent wedding which was held at the Tumbling Waters Retreat. The location was absolutely smashing, this is a jewel in the Illawarra that you would never know it was there. The staff friendly and helpful, attentive and obliging. The wedding reception was well catered for, the meals were of good portions, great tasting and exceptional presentation. It was a great opportunity to have stayed at the Tumbling Waters Retreat and would recommend this to all my friends and family.

Loved our time at tumbling waters this weekend. The attention to detail within the room and decor was exquisite. Brekky and dinner was awesome spot on. It’s a very private retreat and one where you can just hide away and enjoy some time alone. Loved how peaceful and quiet it was. Thank you.

Marlyn P

My husband and I had our wedding at Tumbling Waters and we cannot recommend them enough! The food and accommodation was exceptional and the venue has such a breathtaking view. Sonja, Karen and the team are so friendly and accommodating and made our special day stress free. They offer a beautiful indoor ceremony alternative, overlooking the beautiful escarpment for those rainy days. Our guests were very amazed with this stunning venue. Tumbling Waters has really exceeded our expectations! We cannot wait to stay there for our Anniversary!

Only an hr drive from Sydney, this place offered some very needed time for some relaxing days away.
Loved the self check in and self check out so time was not an issue.
Booked the massages and personalised dinner for the day and couldn’t of been better.
Thoroughly recommend it!!!
