Staying at Montanya is the perfect family getaway. The kitchen has everything you need, the house is spacious for our family of 5 and the bedrooms are cosy and warm. Equipped with all the creature comforts of home, you won’t be disappointed. We have stayed multiple times for our annual ski trip and we will definitely be back!

We loved our stay. Montanya is so well appointed with some beautiful treats generously provided. Thank you! The area is beautiful and the pool was great for an early summer swim. Wish we could stay even longer. We’ll definitely be booking again with wonderful host Vicky. So much more to explore in the area.

Home away from home.

Very lovely home, beautiful area. Generous and conscientious hosts. No hot tub, as was stated on the VRBO site, owner did acknowledge this when asked in advance about it, but it should be corrected on the site. Some pictures of the site are quite old.

Great location if you’re going to be day tripping up to Falls Creek and has an awesome view as a bonus.

A great, cozy mountain getaway

Probably the most comfortable, well stocked holiday house we have stayed in. Perfect for us and two young kids for our yearly ski trip. And the views are amazing. Perfect house to relax and cook in after a day at the slopes. The host is wonderful. We are looking to book again next year. Highly recommend

Perfect Stay

Such a lovely place to base yourself for all the activities, walking/cycling etc in the area. Great contact and pre stay service and then it really was a home from home. All the kitchen equipment etc is of the highest order which is a huge bonus. Wonderful views all over and a beautiful meadow next door which contains probably every bird species known to man!!!!

Thank you for a very relaxing break. Vicky was very attentive. The house is just as advertised - a home away from home with everything catered for. It was comfortable and clean.

Fantastic stay at Montanya

We had such an enjoyable stay at this property. It suited our needs perfectly, being large enough for the family and nicely located not too far from Falls creek, so we could drive up each day. It was beautifully presented, particularly the kitchen/appliances and the bathrooms, everything was of high quality and worked well. The communication from Vicky the host was perfect, very helpful and she responded immediately whenever we had any questions. Can definitely recommend, particularly for families where older kids would love their own self-contained space in the pool house, separate from the main house. If we stay in this area again, we will definitely choose Montanya again.
