Rooms smelt amazing when we arrived very clean and the vibe at Hara House was really nice. The pool and spa were great, and there’s a hidden walking track along the river just behind the property which was a bonus. Bit of a shame the tiki bar wasn’t open because cocktails by the pool would’ve been perfect, but overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay again.
