Jackalope Hotel Mornington Peninsula

I stayed over the weekend and booked through the Qantas website to earn points, and I couldn’t have been happier with my choice. The entire experience was seamless from start to finish. The room was immaculate, the service was exceptional, and the quality of everything exceeded expectations. It felt like no detail was overlooked, and I was able to truly relax and enjoy my stay. Honestly, I couldn’t fault a thing. Totally random, but the place gave me serious vibes from shows like The White Lotus and Nine Perfect Strangers—in the best way possible. It's chic, high-end, discreet, and absolutely picture-perfect. If that makes sense!

Pure luxury with stunning views. Room and turn-down service are the best. They nearly made me joyfully teary by placing a Jackalope branded bookmark in between the pages of my half-read novel (books obsessed person here). I make a point to treat myself here at least once every year - it is worth it! HIGHLY highly recommend. Exceptional service, great food, fun cocktails, lots to do - simply pure indulgence!

Exceptional 6 night at experience at this wonderful adult-only boutique hotel set among the Mornington Peninsula vineyards. The thing that makes this hotel standout above anything is the wonderful staff - everyone very warm, hospitable, and helpful, particularly Leeanne Williams and Nicola. If you are here for a couple nights you could enjoy the entire time on property, but easy access to wonderful local wineries, many of which have great onsite restaurants. Also the hotel offers a courtesy vehicle transportation within 10km, which we used often.

Loved our stay at Jackalope. The pool overlooking the vines is stunning and everything feels very relaxing there. Love that you can get everything you need on site. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful setting, slick interiors, like something out of Squid Games with neon lighting and black walls. Our room overlooking the vineyard was well appointed, with a very comfy king bed, and the service overall was excellent. If only it wasn't so very expensive to stay here, then we could easily become regulars.

Nice room and venue but the service is terrible for the price. Had a shocking experience at the bar waiting a long time for food which was then corrected by the manager who was lovely but other staff were shocking and don’t acknowledge you as guests. Leanne at reception is quite rude and not very accommodating. They won’t allow 30 min late check out when they are fully booked - I’ve worked at hotels and have never heard of this strict policy before. Usually hotels are adaptable and can accommodate. Would think after the poor service the night before that they would allow us to check out 30 mins later at 11:30am but this wasn’t the case. For the price, I probably wouldn’t recommend. Service levels are really poor unless your dealing with a manager !

We stayed at jackalope for NYE 2024 and had a fantastic stay, The service and amenities can't be beat within Victoria! The food is fantastic. Room service options where devine. Unlimited icecream and popcorn. Only thing I will say is we had to log into our own accounts to access movies in our rooms and they didn't have Amazon prime as an option so we had to cast to the TV (which kept cutting in and out and was a little frustrating)

It’s been two weeks since my visit & I am still so very disappointed. 6 months ago I made a reservation & spent nearly $5000 for a two night stay to enjoy “The Midas Touch” package - paying extra for a “weekend stay”. I thought my experience would be exceptional….. however the team in multiple venues did not know of the package, I was charged an extra $6 for a Coke, extra $4 for a side of bacon & extra $20 for a glass of wine in my Dinner wine pairing with lobster!! I have received more value for my $5000 staying in a Club room in Singapore for a week! What a let down! By the way, if I came & stayed enjoying the package inclusions a la carte - I would have saved $1000. So very disappointed. I feel ripped off.

I was traveling on business to Australia and decided to take a few extra days to explore. I had read about the Jackalope in a magazine as it opened in April 2017. The newly opened Jackalope which is on The Mornington Peninsula, about an hour's drive south of Melbourne, is a $40 million luxury hotel on the Willow Creek winery with restaurants Rare Hare and Doot Doot Doot. My favorite dining option was the Rare Hare, a casual drop-in eatery, food store and and wine tasting barn offering smoked artichokes with burrata and venison carpaccio with views of the vines. I loved breakfast which included the likes of spiced lamb and fried eggs or crisp chive-flecked waffles with smoked salmon with a well made strong coffee to get your day started. I stayed in the vineyard room which had a great view over the infinity pool and vineyard. The room was spacious and luxurious with sleek black furnishings. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom had underfloor heating, the double rain shower was amazing and the little nook outside the bathroom was convenient for relaxing. At checkout the amazing service continued as I was offered several water bottles for my hour long journey back to the city and given awesome black bag luggage tags as a parting gift. FIVE STARS as I highly recommend Jackalope for its luxury, its special touches, its awesome attentive staff, and its beautiful location.
