    Amazing views, kind people, adorable animals...stop looking and book here.
    Our stay was well beyond my expectations. Initially I was a little worried, as it was a little outside of my price range. I liked the idea that it was nonprofit and sustainable and I thought the proximity of the animals would be fun for my daughter. The staff was amazing...extremely helpful and kind and always went the extra mile to help us to feel welcome. This never happens, but the view was even better than what's listed on the site. We had a room facing the opera house and it was stunning...we also had an adorable koala outside our room constantly. Just like in the picture. Really. There were several extras that I hadn't anticipated...a morning and evening zoo walk and a tour of a little area made available only to guests. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and you could tell the zoo was working more as an animal sanctuary. I would 1000% recommend this to anyone. It's also extremely accessible, so my daughter and I were able to use it as a home base for exploring other parts of the city. We often came back with tons of sand between our toes and still had time to enjoy the view and the animals.
    Stellar in all ways. The only thing I would mention is think about where you choose to eat during the day and evening. We stayed for four (glorious) nights and mostly ate in other places to keep costs low, though the view from dinner was so lovely (and the food delicious) so the splurge is worth it when you know it's helping the animals. They list two restaurant options and I was thinking we'd use the less fancy one fairly regularly...it was perfect for a cocktail or a snack (with a stellar view), but not a big variety for several lunches and dinners. Not really a downside, just something to keep in mind. Basically...you should stop looking and book this place now.

    The location is spectacular and interacting with the animals was lovely.
    View is amazing, the animals are amazing and the staff were wonderful. The food and drinks were also lovely.
    Getting a ride to the airport was very difficult

    A good experience.
    We were staying in the Zoo Grounds, so we were able to experience things that day visitors would not get to see. This made the experience very enjoyable. Great views from the restaurant.
    Nothing that we did not like.

    Our stay at Taronga Zoo Wildlife Retreat was outstanding, a comfortable and quiet environmen.
    We actually wallked the coastline from Circular Quay and this was a fantastic little end to our trip. We mostly liked the interior and exterior designs of the retreat, perfect space, downlights, then the way the tetreat is run to educate guests and showing what you are doing to work with the land and Aboriginal community. Just wonderful. Bea checked us in, she was delightfully passionate and joyful. The room was very well designed and the whole retemreat really was a retreat we didnt want to leave. Also giving access to the Zoo on the same day and next day really helped our trip as we walked there so only had a few hours in the afternoon. Then the next day we had to leave around midday. So we were able to split our day into 2. Thank you.
    The pressure in the shower was the only disapointment. Very low pressure, just a little more would be perfect.

    Retreat rooms very well done and super comfortable, with great outlook. Loved their pillows. Provided our 3 rooms side by side. Staff all very welcoming and the lounge area lovely place to look out over Sydney harbour (which my sister did while we walked around the zoo). Restaurant dinner was very good as was breakfast. Again the staff really excellent. The views are stunning.
    I would have liked a simpler yet larger choice in both the lounge and restaurant menu.
