A staycation can be the perfect option if you don't want to venture too far overseas but still want to taste something different from your everyday life.

Here are some of the best places to stay across Western Australia, where you can relax, unwind, and refresh, on your own, with friends, or with your family.

Eden Reserve

For comfort, relaxation, and an abundance of peace, you must take a trip to The Eden Reserve. Here you will find an expansive four-bedroom villa on four acres of land just a few minutes' drive from the heart of Swan Valley and Bells Rapids. Begin as you mean to go on, and fly in luxury from the start of your trip.

Each villa has been designed with glass walls that allow light to pour in through the summer months while keeping the weather out in the winter.

You can drive to all the attractions of the Swan Valley in just a few minutes, and the kids will have plenty of space to run around safely. The best nature outside your window will keep you from hurrying to leave.
