Mt Duneed Estate Reviews

Beautiful ambience, live music and delicious food.
An absolutely gorgeous venue for a wedding: the olive grove is stunning, and the view from the estate itself over the hills is beautiful. The food was delicious, the ambience was enjoyable, and while the wait staff were very courteous, more servers and responsiveness would have improved the experience. Would still recommend!
Where do I start with Mt Duneed Estate!What a venue and what a team of fantastic staff they have, from booking our dream wedding 2 years ago to living out the day just over a week ago everything was absolutely perfect! Not once over the 24 months did we feel and concerns or second thoughts about the venue!Communication and customer service is impeccable from the whole team, they made us feel like part of the family from day one and did everything and more to have a stress free and perfectly executed wedding.The food and drinks were Devine and many of our guest have commented on how much they loved Mt Duneed Estate and will be returning for lunch, concerts and hopefully weddings!A super mention to Bec who we had as our wedding coordinator through this process and both my wife and myself genuinely felt the love from her like we had known her for yearsWe cannot wait to come back for bulk lunches and surround ourselves in the picturesque establishment time and time againLots of love The Keogh’s
We were lucky enough to celebrate our wedding at Mt Duneed Estate, and from the moment we arrived, we were completely blown away. The sweeping views of the rolling hills and the beautiful olive grove created the most breathtaking backdrop for our day.Every single staff member we encountered was warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. A special shoutout to * Christine, who guided us through our first tour, and to Jacqui, our incredible wedding coordinator. Jacqui was truly exceptional — she was organised, calm, and on top of absolutely everything from start to finish. She made the entire planning process and our wedding day feel effortless. (Never let this one go!)The food was amazing, the venue was stunning, and the experience was unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend Mt Duneed Estate more highly to anyone considering a visit or planning their special day.
