Amazing Place!

Pros: Everything!
Couldn't believe how welcoming the staff were, right from when we first entered the building. The place is amazing, and would have loved to stay longer. Will definitely try and get back for another stay.

Pretty good but could do better!

Pros: Location and decor
Cons: As a member of Relais et Chateaux group I would expect the menu to change daily! Portion size should be reduced - there are too many fatties around
Location: Whale and Palm beach
Two nights (dinner and breakfast included) at Jonah's - a treat and an extravagance! what do the real estate people say? Location, location and location! A view to die for! A blend of British upper class (a few bow ties around worn by the staff) meets Australian beach culture - at times a bit discongruous! It is a member of the Relais et Chateau group and as such I would expect their bedside music machine to have the appropriate adaptor for annoying changing Apple products. Furthermore I would expect the fish of the day to change from Monday to Tuesday! On the other hand it is an Australian lodge overlooking one of the best beaches in NSW .... great breakfasts for sure! Maybe I expected too much!
