Yala Yallingup Retreat & Spa - Formerly Empire Retreat

What can I say other than this was an amazing experience me and my partner enjoyed it immensely and the service was impeccable could not fault them at all . The included breakfast and small buffet was delicious. This is everything you could need and want from a retreat . I will be telling all about this place and we definitely be coming back to stay again 🥰🥰

The most serene and comfortable experience that truly reflects the essence of Margaret River and Western Australia. Thank you to the incredible team who looked after myself and my friends with such warmth and care. Your efforts made our time unforgettable, creating memories we will always cherish. We are deeply grateful for this beautiful experience.

Our experience at Empire Retreat was absolutely seamless. Kirsty and the team were professional, efficient, and made everything effortless from start to finish. We booked their corporate package as a reward for a competition, and it exceeded all expectations. The accommodation and spa experience were luxurious and so well received by everyone. I couldn’t recommend Empire Retreat more highly!

Super friendly staff, beautiful bush setting, stylish and very comfortable rooms. Great breakfast. Highly recommend for a very relaxing few days away or longer!

Myself and my wife stayed here on Friday 12/9 to Sunday 14/9/25 beautiful place to stay rooms were very comfortable breakfast was very nice Fiona made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived she is definitely a credit to this relaxing location thank you once again kind regards Darren and Tracy.

Beautiful, peaceful location. Staff provided great service. We stayed in the deluxe balcony suite, the room was perfect with a stunning outlook, freestanding bath, lots of beautiful products to use, all amenities you may need. Highly recommend for a romantic getaway and can't wait to visit again.

Beautiful stay. Great service. We stayed in the farm house and it was just perfect.|The outdoor bath was the high light. Breakfast is also good. Location is great as easy to go out for dinner in Dunsborough (only 10 minute drive). Also good for making your own meal in the well appointed kitchen.

The staff were amazing and attentive. You must try the Turkish eggs from the breakfast menu were the best I ever had.

Driving from Perth to Margaret River after a long flight we just needed a place to crash. Arrived late at night so we had no idea what we were getting into. We were very pleased upon entering the room which was vary tastefully appointed. (in fact, the wife loved the bedding so much she bought sets of sheets to bring home! Uh, that is new sheets and not s used set.) But as nice as the room was, we were stunned to see the setting when we went to breakfast. The setting of the inn is stupendous. In fact, we were so impressed by the setting that we stayed an extra day in order to explore the expansive grounds. We found Empire Retreat to be a gem of an inn which we highly recommend. The rooms have a simple, understated elegance, the kitchen is superb, and the setting is dramatic. We stumbled across this place in the dead of night which proves serendipity can be a wonderful thing. Empire Retreat rates a double thumbs up.

Only five minutes drive from Dunsborough this place is nice and close to restaurants and shops. Greeted by friendly staff and shown around the grounds and facilities, we were shown to our room where we had a hamper with lots of complimentary local food/wine (unsure if all rooms include this). Views of the bush, vineyard and surrounding hills are amazing and the outdoor shower was nice. Room was very luxurious and the in-room wood fire came prepared with kindling and newspaper ready to throw a match at, very nice touch - as was the fact the room is cleaned while we were at our complimentary breakfast so we weren't interrupted. Overall a great weekend. The place is a bit on the pricey side but overall we felt we had good value for money.
