We had a nice stay there, but the bed wasn't very comfortable and we could hear everything through the walls, which meant the stay wasn't as relaxing as we had hoped. But we still enjoyed ourselves.

Cozy and warm with a good size t.v. Lovely bathroom, and a big bed. I felt that the the couch could have been a bit bigger it was just a small 2 seater which is a bit of tight fit for 2 Adults. And a coffee table would be good.

Really lovely area and fantastic idea to place cabins amongst the trees the way they have. Gorgeous native wildlife around the place to look at and listen to, which is a big reason we wanted to stay in the mountains. Great bathroom and a decent sized room, however the room and bedding was very dusty. The couch had some unsightly stains (I'd be putting removable covers over those myself) Mattress was very uncomfortable (springs in your back all night) and there is no onsite reception (and limited phone signal even for Telstra) so its a bit hard to contact anyone when you need things. If you can be pretty self sufficient and don't have allergies or a bad back, it's good enough for a few nights and nature makes up for the lack in other areas

So beautiful, but some functional limitations

It looked wonderful, and it was super scenic and very romantic getting away from it all. Most of the experience is fantastic. However - and it is a big however, Moina itself is just a cafe and art studio on a T junction with villas around it - so you do need to bring supplies with you. Unfortunately the kitchen, although providing a big bench space, had no heating surface - even an electric frypan would have done wonders for flexible food preparation (as we had in 2 other chalets immediately prior to coming to this accomodation). Difficult to cook an egg when there is only a microwave. In addition, we were recommended to bring microwave meals in an email sent out 48 hours prior to arrival - but it was a good thing we did not do such a thing as such food is usually frozen - and the tiny compartment in the bar fridge supplied would not store lfrozen meals - so my advice to others - is don’t do it if you are going to be there a few days - which is a little odd given they recommend it - but then do not provide a freezer space to match their own recommendations. Thus, either they need to provide a means to boil water in a pot, so you can cook tinned food, or they need to provide something bigger than a small bar fridge with its minuscule freezer if the microwave is the only food heating source.
