With another incredible Luxury South West Escape up for grabs, we thought we should check in with last year’s winner Sarah Sorgiovanni to share her experience.
We were absolutely thrilled to receive the phone call from Danny on Christmas Eve last year. Dave and I were expecting out third child in January when we found out we had won. We finally found the time earlier this month to enjoy our prize!
We were away for three nights…no kids… limited phone reception… helicopters… food… wine… massages… absolute heaven! We arrived late Sunday afternoon and headed straight to Scenic Helicopters. The legendary Jackson took us on an epic 30 minute flight along the coast of Margaret River. Dave had the door off in the back and was just loving life. Such an amazing experience!
Then we arrived at Indijup Spa Retreat and WOW. A stunning, tranquil sanctuary with a ‘breakfast hamper’ to put all other breakfast hampers to shame!
We then had the wonderful Annie at Mr Chauffers pick us up in a Range Rover and took us on a private half day wine tour. We enjoyed a private tasting at Amelia Park Wines and an amazing lunch at Amelia Park Restaurant.
The following day we enjoyed another amazing lunch, four courses with paired wines at Aravina Estate which was to die for. We had prime position on the balcony overlooking the grounds and were sent home with a 1/2 dozen of incredible bottles of wine!
As if we weren’t spoilt enough on our final day we went out with a bang with an amazing 2.5 hour day spa package at Bodhi J at Indijup Spa Retreat. I was so glad Dave was driving home.
We seriously cannot thank everyone enough! We are so grateful to Bodhi J and each of the local businesses for a very much needed break away from reality at the most hectic time of the year. We cannot wait to come back! We’ve been home for three days and I’m already ready for another break! Maybe we should grab some vouchers and enter this year’s comp?!
xx Sarah
