Amazing experience at the Taronga Wildlife Retreat. We enjoyed our stay there so much! Breakfast was wonderful and so were both tours. The view from breakfast of the Sydney Harbour is breathtaking. So worth the visit! And a very sweet gift from the staff for my birthday, very thoughtful.

An amazing experience

From the moment i checked in until the moment i collected my bags (several hourse after checkout) my stay was faultless. Every staff memeber i encountered at the retreat was fantastic, from the check in team, the Me-Gal staff and the tour giude. One of my top three hotel experiences ever! The sanctuary tour was fun and informative and do yourself a favour and book the $25 after dark zoo tour. The rooms themselves are beautiful with not only a fantastic view of the sanctuary, but also the harbour. I will definitely be back!

The best place I’ve ever stayed. Loved it as an adult and the kids were blown away! Have stayed in Sydney many times and loved being this side of the harbour without even taking into account the awesomeness of being in the retreat surrounded by animals. I highly recommend!
