Was a great stay in the house. And made my 50th birthday even better having the family all together. Location was prefect and views amazing! We will definitely be back.
We have just returned from an absolutely fabulous stay at Moreton Manor! It was a perfect house to fit our group of 14……the kids and adults were all so comfortable and enjoyed the different areas of the house including the deck with an amazing view of Moreton Bay! The entire booking process was so smooth from checkin to checkout and Kirsten was incredibly responsive and great to communicate with. We hired the buggy which I would highly recommend as it made travelling back and forth to the resort very easy especially with kids. Overall wonderful experience and many memories made.
Beautiful location, great views and very spacious. There is some activities as well such as pool and watching some movies on the massive televisions. There is a couple things that could’ve improved which I’ve give feedback directly but overall was beautiful and would stay again. Kirsten herself was excellent and very prompt with everything.
House is amazing!! Beds are super comfy. Great for larger groups or multiple families. Will definitely stay here again if we have to cater for a large group again. Plenty of parking. Golf buggy was a great option. Definitely recommend. After climbing up the hill a few times a day to get back to house from the resort it was a great luxury to have. Excellent!!

This home was perfect for our large family celebration. It has everything you need for the comforts of home and more (except wine glasses) and getting to the resort was a bit of a challenge at times. An extra buggy from the resort is a must, although ours failed a couple of times!The sunsets were stunning from the balcony. We all had a great time and lovely memories were made.The given instructions and messages were very helpful from Kirsten. If you’re not sure about anything just ask. The ‘middle road’ to the Mansion was an interesting experience and we weren’t sure where we would end up… but we made it! A few things require a bit of maintenance but we would still give it 4.9 stars! It’s a beautiful place. We have friends visiting there in December …Thank you
The property was perfect for our large group with areas for us all to hang out together and areas available for those with children who needed some quiet time alone this was our second stay at the moreton manor

Thanks for the review Cameron, we're very glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again!
The house was great and in a great location. Perfect for family holidays and groups of people. Communication with Kirsten was great and she was very helpful.
Great property. Great location. Early part of our holiday the weather was average but given the size and layout of our accommodation, our group of 14 were not fazed. Plenty to do on Moreton. A hidden Queensland gem.
Great place for huge family.
Plenty of room, kitchen fully stocked with enough crockery etc for large family.
Excellent location and Kirsten was a delight to deal with.
Amazing views.
Host was very helpful. Great communication.HEAPS of kitchen utensils, crockery, hand wash, toilet paper, tissues - amazing! Thank you.Quite a few general repairs need doing (on furniture and house). We couldn't get all tvs to work either.This large house is perfect for holidaying with a few families (we had four families). Great views, lots of breakaway areas. We loved our week. Thanks!We would definitely recommend hiring the buggy.
Loved the size of the property, we are a group of 20 and we all had a bed. Also loved that there was enough crockery etc to cater for everyone. Property is a bit far from the resort for pool use and a pool on the property would have been ideal. Some general maintenance required and very expensive but overall a great stay.
