It is the $3750 luxury retreat where a vulgar comment about a couple\u2019s relationship sparked \u201cWorld War III\u201d on Married At First Sight.<\/p>\n

The 80-hectare Greyleigh estate near Kiama has been the setting for this season\u2019s most explosive scenes.<\/p>\n

Located 126km from Sydney on the NSW South Coast, the property costs up to $3750 for a two-night minimum stay.<\/p>\n

The property where the MAFS chaos unfolded was originally built as a dairy farm in the 1880s.<\/p>\n

It underwent a $5 million transformation that began in 2019 and took five years to complete.<\/p>\n

The Greyleigh conversion was completed in 2022 after the original farm was bought by builder Charles Daoud and business partner George Geagea in 2017.<\/p>\n

Controversial bride Bec Zacharia blew up the mood on the first night of the retreat after she made a comment about couple Steven Danyluk and Rachel Gilmore\u2019s physical relationship breakthrough.<\/p>\n

The couple, who had intimacy issues since their marriage, had only just shared their news around the Homestead when the comment was made.<\/p>\n

During an interview about the blow-up, Steve complained that Bec had made an \u201cassumption\u201d about their sex lives.<\/p>\n

The drama spilled over the weekend with Bec describing the atmosphere as being like \u201cWorld War III\u201d.<\/p>\n
