We thoroughly enjoyed our Farmhouse Villa

We thoroughly enjoyed our Farmhouse Villa. Everything was lovely…new and clean. Top quality bedding etc. and all we needed in the kitchen in crockery etc. Bathroom provided lovely shower gels, shampoos and conditioners. Even an ironing board and iron😃. Karen was very friendly and helpful making our arrival and time spent smooth and hassle free. As construction still currently taking place, the quietest time is over the weekend. That should change shortly though🤗

Springboard to nearby attractions and scenery

Lovely modern accommodation, super comfy beds and exquisite linens. Friendly staff, quick and easy checking in and the location is a great starting point to many sights and scenery. Amazingly quiet considering some works are still underway.

Great location

Great location, extremely helpful staff. We stayed with our motorhome on one of the c/van sites for 3 nites and the sites are 5 star along with the toilet and shower ensuites available for our use. Access to our site was easy with the concrete and artificial grass to step out on perfect. Would definitely recommend and will visit again.

The unit was very well done it was comfortable light and bright. I think it needs a lamp in the living area at night, and salt and pepper and hand towels also in the kitchen.
We did not have a bath mat maybe that was over looked. We will book again for next year.
Regards,
Jo Hodges

Most disappointing trip we've ever had

Most disappointing trip we've ever had.
Bed was so uncomfortable that we gave Motorhome back after 2 nights. When we complained about how hard and uncomfortable the mattress was, we were told that they had " a lot of people complain" about that, yet no one bothered to fix the problem. We also complained about dirty plates and cutlery, only to be told that the cleaners don't check that even although you pay a ridiculous $250 in "cleaning" fees.
If you stay in a villa on-site, the cleaning fee is only $95 apparently????.
Doesn't make sense ????
If they haven't fixed the bedding problem then don't even think about using the Motorhome. Never again...

Grateful

We had a lovely stay and are grateful for the opportunity 😊 We would have loved some grass to sit on at the front of our Villa, 3 people tripped over the protruding legs on the coffee table.
We are looking forward to bringing our caravan down 🥰

Quiet and Tranquil

Villa was spotless with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Receptionist was very pleasant and helpful. Grounds are going to be amazing when finished, and plants established .

You are absolutely correct Wilma. As the site becomes more established it's going to be an even better experience at Club Lifestyle located at Lifestyle Bellarine.

Great value for Lifestylers

Very enjoyable overall, considering it is still a construction site. A few minor criticisms - chairs not suitable for larger people, bed not fitted with electric blanket (fire risk). Community amenities excellent, and will improve as construction proceeds. Very good value for the cost of cleaning only, but a few more nights would have been better.

We had a great break at Club Lifestyle…

We had a great break at Club Lifestyle in Leopold on the Bellarine with our dog Rufus. So happy that we could bring him with us. Karen made us very welcome and explained the layout and what the future held. We can’t wait till our next visit.

We spent 5 nights in the caravan…

We spent 5 nights in the caravan parking last week. They are large spots with concrete slab for caravan and grassed area for awning and outdoor furniture. There also was a garden to each site and car park too. The little touches with jam and a drink on arrival and a farewell rocky road bar. The amenities are great something like a private ensuite with roomy shower and toilet . We enjoyed our stay so much that we have booked again. Short walk to the alpaca farm and pat them. Golf putting area and also a nice fire pit area with chairs around it. Once the camp kitchen is finished it will be great. Thanks Lifestyle for a lovely holiday.
Regards Barry & Lorraine.

The Villa was very comfortable and well equipped but glasses etc are stored too high for shorter people. The Club is positioned well for sight seeing on the Bellarine which we did. When completed this will be great. We will be back next year and we hope your wonderful Manager Karen will be there to look after us again, nothing was too much trouble for her, very friendly and helpful.

Thank you for your review of Club Lifestyle (and from a fellow short person, I feel your pain)! We can't wait to see you again next year, and you can continue exploring the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula.

The amenities in the villa were 1st Class and comfortable.
It would be helpful if there were double blinds in the front room so that light could be let in but also allow for privacy.
Also a slight matter that the front windows could have been cleaned prior to our occupancy, but we understand that there is a lot of construction happening.
