My wife & I simply adored this place. Originally, the impetus for visiting Adelaide was simply to see Paul McCartney in concert at a much smaller venue than in Sydney. Though we decided to make a week of it. Why not explore South Australia a little more?! I'm so glad we did. Seascape Retreat proved to be the perfect tonic, immediately imparting a sense of country calm. After the second of three nights there, I'd almost forgotten we were in S.A to see Sir Paul. My photos won't do the views justice, though looking down the valley from our villa toward Victor Harbour was incredibly calming. The surrounding wildlife included many different bird species. Galahs, Kookaburras, Cockatoos, Willy Wagtails, Magpies, Crows. Visually beautiful, aurally soothing. Kangaroos appeared around the property every morning and evening, and the resident llamas were chilling nearby just doing their llama thing. (We were sorry we didn't sight the local echidna, even though Mark the owner pointed us in the right direction) Seascape Retreat is the perfect distance outside of Victor Harbour proper, probably a 10-minute drive, and made us feel as though we were in a little world of our own. It’s been mentioned in previous reviews, so I will mention it too. There is a little drive from the road to the main property, though unless you are riding a penny farthing bicycle, I'm really not sure what the fuss is about. Any car will happily handle this 'driveway' and one should absolutely treat it as an ever-changing mini wildlife tour. There were multiple kangaroo sightings each day. Our villa was immaculately presented, with amazing views from all rooms. There was a locally sourced bottle of wine and cookies on arrival, and pretty much any amenity you could think of was catered for. The bed was large and super comfortable. If you are reading this review or viewing the property, as I initially did on TripAdvisor, it may well book you automatically into the Sky Villa, which I believe is the smaller villa. I’m glad I read that so I could book the larger Serenity Villa. If, however, you are after a slow combustion fire…then go for the Sanctuary Villa, roughly the same cost as the Serenity Villa. What else can I say? I guess the ultimate compliment is that we wanted to get out and explore, though didn’t really want to leave our beautiful villa. Thank you Mark & Tracey.
