There is absolutely nothing to fault with Araluen Boutique Accommodation. From the perfect hosts to the immaculate quality appointed villas, everything is of the very highest standard. Spotlessly clean, warm and inviting with peaceful serene views, the only issue is that we didn't stay long enough. That will be remedied when we return in the warmer months for a longer visit. Could not recommend highly enough!

We stayed here with our friends from Sydney last weekend I have to say the whole experience was absolutely fantastic, Rachel was the hostess with the most'est. Her passion and kindness made our experience one to never forget. The villas /linen/products and oh Fresh eggs daily from the chickens were perfect. Thank you for making this holiday memory this will never be forgotten. We will return and tell all love the Dawson's.

If you are looking for a relaxing weekend away in the Yarra Valley with your choice of stunning restaurants and wineries on your door step, then a stay at Araluen Boutique Villas is a must. Your gracious hosts, Rachel and Neil Hansen, are a wealth of knowledge and happy to offer advice and suggestions regarding local eateries and attractions that will best match the experience you are looking for. Anything you need, just ask and they are happy to oblige, be it making bookings or whatever else you need. Your villa itself is your self-contained patch of paradise and the perfect base from which to explore the Yarra Valley. Each villa has a kitchen with fridge, cook top and convection microwave plus crockery, pans and cutlery, allowing you the option to cook a casual evening meal relaxing in comfort in front of the roaring gas fire after a full day out and about exploring the local sites. Breakfast provisions are included, with the resident chickens laying fresh eggs daily that you are welcome to gather yourself or spend some time picking citrus from the on-site trees laden with fruit (lemons, oranges, grapefruit, mandarins plus olives and pears). The luxury bathroom has a spa for 2, walk in shower, plush towels plus heated floor and towel rail. You'll also enjoy WIFI and a superbly comfortable king bed to lay your head. In the warmer months, you'll also enjoy the solar heated swimming pool. This is our second time enjoying Araluen, having stayed in both the garden and hilltop villas. We'll certainly be back. Soon.

Fantastic stay. Very happy. So good we didn't leave. Every meal we had on the balcony appreciating the view. Maybe complimentary bottle of wine from the region would be good. Best continental breakfast we've had. Great variety and very enjoyable. Great quality. Bed was amazing, bathroom heated floors and towel rack much appreciated.
