Initially a bit concerned when we reached our unit ...the front door was grubby and had cobwebs on it. Once inside we found the room clean roomy and quiet but a bit basic. The hotel is in a lovely setting with spacious gardens and lots of ducks on a small lake. It has a nice restaurant and a great wine... More

We bought a deal which gave us a king room plus continental breakfast and evening meal for two - great deal. Very nice and quite large room. Outside a little motel-like but very acceptable. Being in the middle of McLaren Vale, there is a huge choice of wineries, restaurants and cafe's - and we would thoroughly recommend the Ekhidna Winery/Restaurant... More

Beautiful time had at serafinos. Highlight being the wonderful meal we had at the restaurant. Pork belly was delicious and my husband's steak main looked and tasted divine. Although rooms look a little dated, still enjoyed ourselves with it's spacious and picturesque views. Will be visiting this place again.

My wife and I stumbled across Serafino while on a visit to McLaren Vale. We decided to stay the night, as the cost of a dinner, bed and breakfast package was well priced. We are so glad we made that decision. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean and overlooked the beautiful swimming pool. Our rate included a 2 course meal... More

We stayed here in January, on a package of room and dinner in the restaurant, with breakfast to the room. The room was very spacious, had nice decor and was in a great position, near the pool and a lovely short walk to the restaurant. To say we booked a romantic break package, it was a shame that the bed... More
