Villa Moscato

What guests think

Across recent stays at Villa Moscato, guests consistently highlight the quiet, central Hunter Valley setting and relaxing golf-course outlook, alongside spacious, comfortable villas, while noting mixed upkeep and amenities that vary between units and feel somewhat dated in places.

Cleanliness is often praised, but several reviews mention issues such as dirt or mold, stray items, lingering odours, and occasional maintenance faults. Service is generally smooth with easy PIN entry and responsive managers, though a few guests reported unreturned messages and a mishandled security code. Facilities are practical—equipped kitchens and fireplaces feature—but in-room tech and access vary, with limited TV options, missing Wi‑Fi in some villas, and confusion about pool or gym access. Best for travellers seeking space and location over uniform amenities.

Extremely disappointed, we booked the executive suite and we're given a standard villa, with no Internet, a mouldy smell throughout the house. Will seriously consider booking this place again. What was shown was totally different to what we stayed in

The unit was lovely and suited 2 couples really well. Only a couple of negatives, I don’t remember reading about all the stairs to get to the unit, the lounge is really not comfortable ( we wanted to relax at the end of a long day exploring the area) and no face washers in the bathrooms. The unit was well fitted out with air conditioners. Coffee machine, dishwasher, microwave and stove. It is well situated in the Cypress Lakes area with easy access to all the attractions of the Hunter Valley.

A fantastic property. Big comfortable beds, well furnished throughout. Property was clean and well equipped for the stay. Lovely views onto the golf course. Owners pool was perfect for a swim and not too busy. easy parking and access to and from the property. A great family or romantic getaway. very close to hunter valley gardens and surrounding wineries, pubs and attractions.

An easy property to stay for the weekend. Renovated kitchen that was stocked full of everything you need for the weekend. Lovely fireplace for the evening, air con and plenty of room, bathrooms and easy to access. We were warm and comfortable. The washing machine had a funny smell to it so had to wash by hand but we requested an iron and one was in our room that day (thank you!). The management of the villa were very efficient in communication throughout the weekend.

The property was okay but there were a number of little things that made it not as good as it could have been. There was not enough cutlery, many of the dishes were chipped, the furniture was "tired" and the wood floor was scratched. One of the air conditioners had the swing flap missing. The upstairs carpets were frayed. The choice of television stations was limited to free to air and Prime without popular apps like Foxtel, Netflix, Stan or Paramount. The "view" was just of trees. The beds were confortable and the barthrooms clean.

The villa was cosy and had what we needed for our weekend away. Its central location made for easy access to wineries and activities in Pokolbin. The villas are getting on in age and starting to show it. They could do with a bit of a spruce up and great if wifi was available. All in all the villa met our needs.

I sent a message on the 28th September and took a picture to advise "The place is lovely, but there were no coffee pods for the coffee machine, minimal oil to cook in - empty. Looked up and saw a very very dirty sock covering a smoke alarm in the downstairs lounge room it did not look like it should be there. Would have loved a response. Warm Regards Louise Skinner

The property was well furnished and in good condition overall. There were a couple of small issues which I advised by text. The only issue I had about cleanliness was that outside table had not been wiped down. The view was lovely. Access to the property was via a number of stairs or a longer walk and up a fairly steep incline from the car park which did cause an issue with one of our less mobile guests.

Comfortable clean apartment overlooking the golf course. Very quiet and peaceful. Only problem was that the curtain rail had fallen off the wall in the main bedroom leaving double sliding doors to let in the full moon and early morning sun reducing sleep quality. Hopefully this will be repaired for next visitor.

Without thinking about the safety of the originally booked customers. Would think twice next time using the same facilities for future breaks.
