Quirky and secluded
The Bambino van was something different with all the things you would need with quality extras. Outdoor fire, BBQ were great and the van adds to the experience. The only qualm would be a cold night in winter and the air conditioner stopped. We woke to a great scene a lovely breakfast and wilderness serounding us.

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel like family. The room was just beautiful and the extra touches, such as Easter eggs, were lovely. The environment you are in is just heaven on earth. Close to the beach, but far enough to forget your troubles.

Great stay for my 30th with my partner, we had read all the reviews and everything was perfect as mentioned! Great spa, breakfast supplied as well as the local wildlife at your doorstep, we even got the fireplace going for a bit of atmosphere on the last night. Can recommend to anyone looking for the getaway retreat away from the city and wants to truly escape everything but natures sounds..

Exceptional accommodation for a romantic getaway
Our stay at the Bower for Valentines day was absolutely sensational. The location of the Bower amongst the beautiful gums, ferns and native wildlife was just magical. Despite being in walking distance from the beach, the Bower was incredibly private and peaceful. The interior of the Bower was incredibly luxurious and the bath was absolutely amazing. The quality of produce in the breakfast hamper and the finishing touches such as candles, lovely soap etc. made our stay feel so very special. We ended up enjoying the accommodation so much that we decided to eat in for the entirety of our stay, rather than heading into town for a Valentines day dinner.

Staying at The Bower was a thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing experience. We stayed in a deluxe spa cabin that was very well appointed, perfectly clean and with all the required amenities. The supplied breakfast hamper made for a great start to the morning after a totally relaxing night Definitely will be visiting The Bower again in future.

Wonderful relaxing wildlife retreat.
We spent two nights at the blue bower and had a very relaxing time. The owners, Sue and Mark left no stone unturned with every detail covered. After we met on the first afternoon they left us alone to enjoy our stay. I would totally recommend the Bower at Broulee for any couples looking to get away for a relaxing, stress free stay.

Warm welcome
The owner gave a warm welcome and took pains to provide details of points of interest in the surrounding bush. It was obviously an establishment that took on board feedback from customers in order to maximise enjoyment. For example the provision of a torch which could be plugged into the outdoor balcony in order to observe wild life at night. We especially liked touches such as the expresso machine and the mood music playing when we entered our accomodation. It demonstrated generousity of spirit and thoughtfulness.
