Manuka Retreat

Manuka retreat is tastefully renovated to give you everything you need, for a wonderfully relaxing stay.
A stylish couples getaway, situated in the heart of Halls Gap ( just 600m from the shops) and close to walks, restaurants, art gallery and activities.

....We now offer Free unlimited WIFI for your stay.....

Nestled amongst the tall gums with mountain views front and rear, it is the ideal haven for wildlife and birds which frequent the garden often.
The spacious front deck flows from the lounge room and bedroom area, bringing the outdoors in.

You can soak away the days adventures in the luxurious spa or double shower, before retiring to the comfortable king size bed .

A gas fire will give that cozy feel in the cold days, and the reverse cycle air-conditioner will keep you cool in the summer.

A coffee machine is provided along with tea, coffee & milk in case you arrive late. The automatic outside lighting comes on for two hours in the evening to light your way.

Come stay with us to enjoy the fabulous Grampians National Park .

Manuka Retreat

I highly recommend Manuka Retreat. It is absolutely beautiful and in a perfect location. The house was so clean and welcoming and the spa was a perfect touch after a day of walking around and exploring. The king bed is the most comfortable bed I’ve ever slept in and the double shower was amazing. Definitely won’t be the last time we come here and we are already planning our trip back. Thank you so much for having us

Great space and close to town

Some times all you need is a one bedroom place to stay. Banksia is just that, with all the needed amenities provided, including fast (for me) internet. Being within a 5 minute walk to the shops is good.
