This has been the main highlight of our couple's retreat in Melbourne! The weather was fantastic, and we could watch the sunrise appearing in the horizon. The pilot, Nick, and his son were wonderful. They put everybody at ease with their humor and professionalism. It was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will remember forever. Highly recommend to go with Liberty!

I arranged a birthday dinner for my mom, and I emailed the cruise company in advance. They were incredibly nice; not only did they arrange a window seat for us, but they also presented a small cake with a birthday candle. All the guests on the boat sang "Happy Birthday" to my mom, which was truly wonderful! The food was excellent, the portions were generous, and drinks were free-flowing. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful stay at Pegasus Apart’Hotel and would happily stay here again! The room was cleaned daily, always smelled fresh, and was equipped with useful amenities such as a microwave, kettle, kitchen utensils, and a mini refrigerator, making my stay very comfortable. Housekeeping regularly changed the towels and linens, made the bed, and refilled toiletries. A few times some coffee sachets were missed, but reception quickly sent refills when requested. I was especially impressed by the staff’s responsiveness. When my hair dryer broke, I called reception and someone came to check it immediately and provided a replacement. The Wi-Fi was stable throughout my stay, and every staff member I encountered was friendly, professional, and helpful. Although the view from my room wasn’t quite what I expected, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Thank you to the entire team for making my visit so comfortable and memorable. I will definitely be booking with you again the next time I return.
