“First class awesomeness!”
Jackie 18th July 2023
Gourmet Getaway for hubbys birthday. This is our 5th time dining at Jonahs. It is always a wonderful feast and the 6 course Gourmet with accompanying wines made this occasion so special for my husband (and me too of course). The hospitality is second to none. The loveliest staff ever!
Our room had a beautiful view, comfortable bed and pillows, fluffy white towels, loads of space, clean and fresh and luxury toiletries worth taking home! The mini bar is the biggest temptation, its well stocked with so many goodies.
We had such a fantastic stay, we’ve booked up for my birthday next month. Breakfast room service set us up for the day…absolutely delicious, top marks for the housemade granola!!.
We were chuffed to get a visit to our table from Chef Frederico too. Worth every cent, looking forward to our return soon.
“Unforgettable 10th Wedding Anniversary”
Scott & Mariana Leader 20th June 2023
We recently stayed at Jonah’s to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We were lucky enough to receive the same suite – #1 – we had on our wedding night which brought back great memories. Jonah’s is the complete package – outstanding service (e.g. everyone who greeted us congratulated us on our wedding anniversary), superb location and facilities, the views and of course the food and wine is a true highlight.
We were fortunate enough to meet with Federico Tidu (Executive Chef) and Niels Sluiman (Head Sommelier) over our amazing dinner! The Grilled King Prawns and Hiramasa Kingfish were light and flavoured to perfection. This was followed by the Wagyu beef and Roasted Lamb which was matched with some superb Victory Point Chardonnay from the Margaret River, WA and a perfectly full bodied Catena Zapata Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina. We were both really impressed by the wine list, in particular the wine by the glass offerings. The desserts were equally delicious and washed down with a Royal Tokaji and a Sauternes Botrytis. The breakfast was also a highlight and executed with the same attention to detail and incredible flavours.
This is now our third stay at Jonah’s after getting married here in 2013, celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary in 2018 and our tenth in 2023. We intend to keep coming back every 5 years and we can’t wait to return to what is the benchmark for a boutique hotel and fine dining experience.
Thank you to all the Jonah’s staff for making our stay so memorable!
“Gourmet getaway”
Andrew and Diana Cooke 28th March 2023
We both thoroughly enjoyed an overnight stay at beautiful Jonah’s. From the moment we walked in the door we were met with friendly staff, a fabulous room with a gorgeous view.
The complimentary champagne on the deck was just the beginning. The 6 course degustation menu was superb and meeting chef Federico Tidu a bonus!
The wine matched perfectly, even with the gluten free options my husband had to have and Georgina’s knowledge of each wine and region was excellent.
Breakfast the next day was also first class and of course that view is always a winner. Thank you.”
“Outstanding Customer Service”
Peter C 20th February 2023
From the moment we first arrived we were greeted by reception and made to feel very welcome and special.
The individual service provided by every staff member we dealt with was absolutely exceptional and I have not experienced this level of customer service anywhere before. Could not ask for more!
The rooms were beautiful and comfortable and the scenery was unbelievable and you never get tired of looking out over the ocean.
We had dinner at the restaurant which was superb and had a very memorable evening. We will be sure to come back to Jonah’s once a year to really spoil ourselves.
It was unforgettable.

Have never had a better dining experience in my life.
Extremely reasonably priced for what is a genuinely lovely fine dining experience.
Waiters are polite, respectful and service felt effortless, yet professional.
The menu is curated wonderfully, i regret not opting for the paired wines with each food item.
Confident ill not visit a better establishment in a long time.
This is the benchmark

Best food and hospitality in Sydney!!
Jackie E 18th July
Wonderful stay here for hubbys surprise birthday treat. Our room was spacious, fresh, clean and very comfortable with gorgeous views and a top notch minibar and fixtures!! We had the 6 course gourmet dining experience and thoroughly enjoyed every mouthful washed down with the accompanying wines. Chef Frederico paid a visit to our table to serve our last savoury course, which was lovely. Amazing staff here, always professional and super friendly. We’re returning in August too for my birthday, we can’t wait!

An Experience rather than a Destination
FelixF Apr 2023
I can only support the other reviews. We had an Indulgence Package which luckily was an anniversary gift as its not a cheep stay and normally not where we could afford.
The service and all staff were just so professional and made us feel so special.
The room was so modern and comfortable and clean with great attention to detail. For example the $7500 mattress was delightful to sleep on.
The massages were amazing and so relaxing in such a great quiet location.
The meals, Dinner and Breakfast, were just at a whole new level of taste ,presentation and delight, looking out on a multimillion dollar view.
As I said it’s an experience that kept on giving the whole time and we are so grateful that we were able to stay.

Truly Outstanding
Tom M June 2023
We have been to Jonah’s several times and for this lunch we selected the Seafood Platter. The seafood was fresh and the hot selection was cooked to perfection. A great decision and one we will definitely choose again.
It was comforting to see familiar faces of this wonderful Team. We were lucky to be taken care of again by Florent throughout our lunch. He is so lovely and attentive, such an asset for Jonah’s. Niels, as always, is there to assist with your selection of wine if you have chosen the option to match wines with your meal. His knowledge is truly amazing. He listens to what you like, takes into consideration what you have ordered and matches accordingly. We were not disappointed with his selection.
On a separate note, we noticed that Niels is now the General Manager. Congratulations Niels!
We were thrilled to discover that they still have “The 15 Year Gimlet” on the drink’s menu. Yes, we did order a few!!!
For this visit, we decided to treat ourselves by staying the night, rather than heading off after a long lunch.
Stepping into our room, we were blown away. Absolutely Gorgeous. A good size balcony that overlooked the ocean, under floor heating in the large bathroom that had a spa bath, rain shower with luxurious towels, one of the most comfortable beds that we have ever had in overnight accommodation, and the list goes on. There were even binoculars, as this time of year we could be lucky to see whales heading north. Yes, we were extremely fortunate to see many throughout our stay.
Included in our package was breakfast the following day. Seriously, the best breakfast EVER!!! The food was just as outstanding as lunch was. We were looked after by a lovely young lady called Anais. As I couldn’t decide on a juice, she surprised me with a blend of juices, delicious. Having a little fun, she had me trying to guess the blend. I managed to get two out of the three. Loved it so much, I had a second one.
Before we knew it, it was time to check out.
Our entire stay was incredible.
My only concern is that we cannot just go for lunch. Staying overnight is now a MUST!
