The Best Resorts in Crafers

Perched above Piccadilly Valley in the Adelaide Hills, this adults-only boutique hotel estate has a cellar stocking over 1,300 labels, which tells you something about the priorities here. There are two restaurants, a day spa, a valley-view pool, and a billiards room, and the whole operation carries the quiet confidence of somewhere that has never felt the need to try very hard.

Moon windows above the bed frame the night sky, which is either the most romantic detail or the most unsettling depending on your mood. This boutique hotel in the Adelaide Hills runs fourteen suites, each with a sunken lounge and freestanding bath, plus a spa housed in a former National Trust building using locally farmed Jurlique products. Wallabies on the trails, indigenous Dreamtime storytelling, and spring-fed hot pools round out a stay that leans hard into the landscape.
