Paperbark Camp

Paperbark Camp was the perfect weekend get away!! What a well thought out place.. balance of simplicity and function. Just a tranquil space. Even though the tents are quite open, security wasn't a concern at all. The staff were all respectful and lovely. The food was a true highlight of the experience!!!! Even if you're not staying on site, definitely worth visiting for a meal.

I planned this accomodation and trip to Jervis Bay as a surprise for my partners 32nd bday and he was so happy! ||I want to start off with a HUGE thank you to the staff! Everyone we interacted with was so incredibly lovely, so personable, up for a laugh and just so warm. ||Neither of us can really fault anything, I usually try to do my reviews under 3 titles “The Good, The Bad, The Ugly” but all I have is good things to say. ||As I said the staff were amazing, the chefs were so accomodating and REALLY put so much effort into making my meals deliciously vegan. There was nothing lazy or boring about my meals and I appreciate it so much. I think it speaks volumes of a chef when they put effort into a vegan meal because so many don’t/don’t want to. My partner loved the choices available on their seasonal menu and we were never left underfed! (We forgot to grab our leftover jambalaya though!)||The accomodation itself was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. |Waking up to the sounds of the Australian bush is so wholesome. My favourite part was definitely the outdoor bathtub that looks out onto the bush. We were very lucky to get the King Fisher tent right at the back so never had anyone walking past and had full privacy. ||I simply can’t recommend this place enough and have already passed on the details to several friends :) I would absolutely stay here time and time again!

Absolutely loved everything ! Food , hospitality, accommodation brilliant. We spent 3 nights celebrating a special anniversary, perfect. Explored jervis bay in the mornings, stunning! Back at camp 2 pm to rest, read then dinner the food 5 star! Bed so comfortable. An absolute treat. Perfect place to decompress. We are going to go every year.

We had a wonderful time at Paperbark Camp. It's so relaxing and peaceful, a perfect place to unwind. The food was absolutely delicious , great job Chef! The staff were all welcoming and friendly, particular shout out to Claudia for going above and beyond making sure we had everything we needed. We'll definitely go back.

What was great: Everything was fantastic—the food was excellent, the tent was super comfortable, and the absolute highlight was the outdoor bathroom! Such a unique experience and a perfect way to connect with nature. What could be improved: Unfortunately, we didn’t see any wildlife during our stay, which was a bit of a letdown. Also, the barista coffee (Flat White) didn’t quite live up to expectations—it was advertised as barista-quality but didn’t taste like it. A small improvement here would make the experience even better!

My wife, Sarah, & I enjoyed hugely our 3-night stay at Paperbark Camp. The tented accommodation, in a lovely forested setting, is luxurious and very atmospheric. All of the staff are delightful and the food, both at breakfast and dinner, was fantastic. Furthermore, the balcony dining in the 'Gunyah' (central meeting place) was the perfect setting to complement the wonderful food. Thank you for such a marvellous and memorable stay.

Paperbark Camp was an absolute delight to stay at. We were only able to stay 1 night, but everything was amazing. The rooms, well tents, are very well maintained, neat, tidy and clean. The beds are extremely comfortable. Haven't slept that well in a while. I would highly recommend Paperbark Camp for anything from a 1 night stay to a wedding or family get away. We had dinner, which was on point, and breakfast which was just as amazing and would rival any great restaurant anywhere. Compliments to the chef and all in the kitchen. The staff were extremely accommodating and helpful and an absolute joy to deal with. A special shout out to Suzy and Claudia, fantastic job ladies. Overall Paperbark Camp is a place I would, and will, return to for another stay.

We loved everything about our stay! From the gift bottle of Prosecco we enjoyed in the thunderstorm as we checked in ( so sensual and romantic!) to the giant soaking tub which exposed us to the night air, to the gorgeous scrumptious decadent breakfasts & elegant locally sourced gourmet dinners, to the daily guidance on suggested activities-- loved all of it. Staff was charming and took excellent care of us. Body products were so lovely. Our bed was so cozy. We enjoyed the joyful bird chorus in the morning. None of the above captures what an exquisite unusual and wonderful experience one will have here.

Ah glamping! Paperbark Camp is situated in Jervis Bay surrounded by trees and next to the river. The tent is nicely set up and comfortable with a big bed, space to move, a deck with comfy chairs and an open cupboard around the back. The bathroom is a tad exposed on certain tents, we were towards the back so they didn't have as many privacy screens which was very "free-ing" but a little panic inducing when noises were heard outside. While on the deck we saw kangaroos/wallabies (not sure) which was a nice reminder that we were just hanging out in the bush. Although another reminder was when in the middle of the night we heard a noise in the tent, a possum had made its way in through a crack! After finally convincing it to leave I barricaded the door and was on night possum guard for the rest of the night. Food was amazing, every dinner really impressed us and breakfast was solid. Search for "The Gunyah" for more reviews. They also do cocktails on the main deck, great to have before dinner while watching the mosquitos bounce around the balustrade (they provide lots of repellent). Bikes and canoes are available to use but we didn't use those. Instead we drove into town, visited shops and spent most of our times on the beautiful beaches. Overall the location and food was perfect. The services was friendly and chilled out, but that also meant things were just a little lax and not as polished to be 5 stars.
