Staying at the Dome at Claudios property was a nice experience. You are far away from the house and have your own privacy.

We had the most beautiful night at the Bubble Hotel. The space was cosy, clean and so special since we could bring our dogs along! We were so lucky to book during the winter deal, which gave us the guest house, fire pit and fairy lights – these made the night feel extra special and we probably wouldn’t have been able to splurge on them otherwise. Sitting by the fire pit under the fairy lights was such a highlight and waking up to kangaroos hopping by at sunrise honestly felt magical. The only little hiccup was that someone walked into the guesthouse in the morning, even though we’d been told it was private – but it didn’t take away from how special the stay felt. Overall, such a unique and memorable experience – one we’ll always treasure and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a magical escape in the Hunter Valley.

Just fabulous!!
Hunter Star Gazing BubbleHotel
Just returned from a night in the Dome (a late birthday prezzie for my hubby), which is set in the vast acreage surrounding the beautiful home of our hosts, Claudio and Shellee, in Mount Vincent. We entertained the ponies and cows for the evening with our antics and followed the stars on our Night Sky apps, while toasting marshmallows on the fire and enjoying a glass of fizz or two. Our hosts provided us with an excellent cheese platter, plenty of firewood, and a beautifully presented Dome with a window to the heavens to sleep under. It was amazing!! Claudio, Shellee, and their family made us so feel so welcome, nothing was too much trouble, and they went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Thank you Claudio and Shellee, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit and will most definitely be coming back to see you again!

Hi there, Claudio and his wife Shellee were amazing hosts. We are a family of 4 with 2 young girls. Apparently we were the first family to stay in the bubble tent. Kids loved the experience and so did we. all the amenities were above our expectations and the ambiance they provide us with the tent setup was on point. Thank you again Claudio and god bless with all future guests.

Peaceful, cozy change from a hotel
Hunter Star Gazing BubbleHotel
The view of the stars was perfect, could only see the brightest ones from inside the bubble but just rugged up with blankets and sat on the chairs outside. Was lovely with the fire! The wine glasses were a nice addition and the bed was nicely made up with plenty of bedding and extra blankets. Hosts were lovely, stopped in to greet us but otherwise left us be. Kept an open line of communication with us and were very accommodating, offered us to pick some excess citrus, would definitely book again, it was a lovely spot.

Cute little shielded area at the back of the property, shame it was a bit cloudy at night so the stars weren't as visible but none the less my partner and I had a good time.

Overall we had a good experience. Claudio was a responsive and attentive host. Unfortunately we didnt realise that the Bubble tent was in the back garden, although our privacy was respected. You will need to walk past the back of the house to the bathroom and kitchenette. There was no shade which made the experience very hot. Inside the bubble tent was very well appointed and was a fun thing to do for a night.

Wow! This place is absolutely stunning! 5/5 for a tranquil getaway and lovely hosts. The bubble tent is a magical and extremely unique experience, and if you’re lucky enough to have a clear sky (we were!), then the star gazing is incredible. Bonus points for the wildlife - a beautiful cow paddock and some local kangaroos that come to say hello in the early hours of the morning. Definitely recommend this to anyone looking to have a relaxing and memorable getaway. Thank you for a beautiful evening!

Perfect Proposal Experience
Hunter Star Gazing BubbleHotel
Me and my now fiancé loved our stay at the BubbleHotel! Totally recommend it. Our host Claudio helped me organise the proposal and was really attentive to all the details. The directions to get to the place are very clear and the location is perfect. 25min from HunterValley, with lots of nature in front of the Bubble. During the night, you can see the stars from inside the bubble. There was a firepit, already turned on by our host, and beautiful flashing lights, balloons and letters for the proposal. We even saw some kangaroos in the morning. There was a bathroom at the main house, just a few steps from the reserved location of the bubble at the back, with towels, shampoo and everything we needed. Water was provided and for the proposal cheeses, nuts and crackers. We would definitely come back and recommend for anyone looking for a calm, reserved and beautiful place for stargazing and with the possibility of going out for the day for nice experiences at Hunter Valley as well. Thank you, Claudio, for having us at this special memorable moment of our lives!

It was a great unique experience sleeping in a bubble and nice weekend getaway for our family. Our little one loved the big grass yard to run around and treehouse and giant swing nearby. We also got to see some kangaroos hop by in the morning. Lovely, friendly hosts were welcoming and looked after us.

The Pines is a great setup on level ground, plenty of shade from the row of pines and fantastic ammenities including toilet/shower etc. Claudio was super helpful and responsive with any requests. As a few other reviewers noted, the road noise is slightly invasive on what is otherwise a very peaceful setting! Overall a great stay..
