Arinya Retreat Daylesford - Daylesford, Victoria

You'll never regret coming to Arinya Retreat. Nestled in the heart of Hepburn Springs / Daylesford Region, close enough to town that you can access the main amenities but far enough to feel special and secluded in nature.
The property is in a stunning location with nature all around. It is absolutely gorgeous to wake up and see wildlife, birds , hear the sounds of the Australian bush every morning here. The evenings are peaceful and grounding.

The house itself is a masterpiece, tasteful decor, thoughtful additions and feels like home but luxury.

With many bedrooms it is easy to take space, or to be together in the 2 sitting rooms or outside.

The host, Damien, is extremely helpful, and a brilliant host.

I can't say enough about this place but it truly has something special .

Do yourself a favor and book it !

My family had the pleasure to stay at Arinya Retreat to celebrate my 60th birthday.
Absolutely beautiful, tranquil and so relaxing. Damien was an amazing host that has thought of everything you need. I just wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend this lovely property. Hope to return one day. Great location. It is a treasure.

I simply can’t recommend Arinya enough. Damien was very helpful preparing for my stay. The retreat is so quiet and tranquil but only 10mins from town. All the little details are there and more. Comfortable bed, couches etc. luxury linen. Good water pressure and a spa. Lots of little helpful things that you might forget (like matches or kitchen supplies etc). It is definitely as pictured (or better). 12 hours in and it was like the entire world didn’t exist, I haven’t been this relaxed in years. My only regret is that I didn’t stay longer. Damien also recommended two amazing masseurs and the boomerang riding ranch which were fantastic. The visit from the local kangaroos, birds and puddy the cat were nice bonuses. Perfect for a romantic weekend escape or small group. I simply must come back asap!

My sisters and I had an awesome time enjoining the surroundings over the weekend. The property is simply amazing, very tranquil and the kangaroos are an absolute delight. The house is spacious and our host Damien is a sweetheart. We had the pleasure of meeting him and his friendly cat Puddy. Thanks again Damien we will definitely be back. Well deserving of the 5 star rating.

A perfect retreat to unwind and let yourself reconnect away from the city noise. Enjoy the open fire and beautiful rammed earth building. Absolutely delightful.

Beautiful location and quality venue. Damian was a lovely host and had a fire burning for our arrival. He greeted us with an offer for a fresh brewed coffee or glass of wine. Kangaroos and Bunnies frequent the property and the gorgeous Puddy was on hand for a rub and soft purr. Highly recommended.

A must stay. Absolutely beautiful I would strongly recommend Arinya Retreat. The house is amazing with beautiful decor and there really is nothing that I can think of that is not catered for. On arrival Damian showed us around and even had considered the coming cold spell and set the heater to come on so we where very comfortable. The views, serenity, wild life and tranquility is perfect makes for a most relaxing holiday. Definatley would return and recommend to anyone looking for a great escape.
