Serafino was a comfortable option for our overnight stay in Mclaren Vale. The room was large and the bed was huge and comfortable. The motel style room was clean and in good condition, however a small kitchenette with a microwave would have been handy. The restaurant was not open the night we were there and Serafino is a little out of town, so we walked 20 minutes to a restaurant in the evening.

Stunning location

Lovely hotel in stunning grounds. Friendly reception staff. Great to be able to hire bikes to cycle the reusking trail. Some complacency amongst the cleaning team which I believe is outsourced so it wasn’t up to the usual standards which is why I’ve marked it down. Beds were nice and comfortable though and facilities were good. A lovely pool if a little cold 😊

Our stay was very good overall. Only issues are the local bird's cockatoos making a riot until 10pm. Only other issue we found it had to find a restaurant open in the area for dinner, we drove to norlunga for dinner. I noticed the property only had a few rooms that were empty that night. So it supprised me how few dinner options were open in the area on a Wednesday. But still happy with our stay
