Rooms
The Purple Hen Hideaway Resort has three-bedroom villas with two bathrooms and a living room. Each villa includes air conditioning, a balcony, and a private entrance. Families have noted the beds are comfortable and the space is large. Some villa doors and internal doors may squeak, and not all villas have a bathtub-some have a large shower instead. The kitchenette is well stocked with crockery and cutlery.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves brunch, lunch, and dinner, with cocktails at the bar. There are outdoor dining areas with garden views. The café on site offers coffee and snacks. There is also a vending machine for quick drinks or snacks.
Leisure
The resort has four swimming pools (three outdoor, one indoor), with some heated and open year-round. There is a hot tub, sauna, fitness centre, and a sun terrace. For activities, there are tennis courts, bike tours, walking tours, mini golf, table tennis, and a games room. Kids can use the playground and outdoor play equipment. The resort also has BBQ facilities and a picnic area.
Location
The resort is a 6-minute walk from Phillip Island Wildlife Park and 4 km from A Maze'N Things. Essendon Fields Airport is 100 km away. Free parking is available on site.
Amenities
The resort offers daily housekeeping, laundry, and a business centre with meeting rooms. There is private check-in/check-out. WiFi is free throughout the property. The rooms are soundproof and allergy-free. The resort has family rooms and is non-smoking. Guests have seen possums visiting the deck at night. Some facilities, like go-karts, may require an extra fee.
“It's understood that this resort strikes a fine balance, offering a sense of private seclusion while remaining a short drive from town's amenities. The units themselves seem well-appointed and generously sized, with a clear focus on comfortable beds and practical, ample kitchenware, contributing to a remarkably clean and self-sufficient stay. Beyond the lodging, the availability of numerous on-site activities suggests a well-rounded experience for families.”
