We had an incredible stay at La Riva - not only was Andrea a delight to deal with their website was super handy and the house was even better than the photos (didn’t think that was possible). It was not only luxurious but incredibly functional for a group of 8, couldn’t speak more highly of our stay.

WOW! When you come to the house, it surrounded by beautiful specimen trees. Then when you arrive in the house ‘WOW’. It so beautiful, clean, spacious. All the bedrooms have super comfy beds and are beautifully decorated. Massive bathrooms. A huge kitchen and dinning area. Comfy lounge. And then going outside to an affinity pool with a breathtaking view of the lakes.

Incredible New Years Stay. We stayed over New Years and it was the most beautiful stay, the location, the owners, the scenery, the amenities everything was perfect. Couldn’t recommend this stay any more, perfect quiet location with ultimate privacy.

Absolutely incredible place! We will be back!

Awesome house with heaps of amenities, great location with ample privacy. Loved our stay here.

We had an excellent time staying at this property. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the two lovely hosts and were pleasantly surprised by how beautiful and spacious this property is. The rooms were clean, and the beds were very comfortable (It’s been a long time since I’ve slept somewhere so well, thank you for that). The second day we did a guided kayaking tour nearby and even saw some dolphins! In the afternoon we booked a helicopter ride with the host’s helicopter tour business which I can highly recommend to anyone staying here. Overall, I had a great experience staying here and can highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

What an experience! La Riva is an amazing property hidden in East Gippsland. Stunning gardens , amazing resort and hosts are more than accommodating. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to get away for an amazing experience.

Home away from home. Stayed the weekend here in Nov. Accommodation was massive, infinity pool, massive beds, modern and pretty cool views of the rivers below. Also, found a table tennis table and pool table in the garage.

The most enjoyable weekend staying at the fabulous Homestead. La Riva is so much more than a fabulous property and infinity pool! After such a challenging year, this was our chance to escape the hustle and bustle of Melbourne and reunite with our family and friends. I’m not sure where to even start as we couldn’t get past the stunning entrance, gardens and house, it’s huge! From the moment we contacted owners Andrea and David they went above and beyond to make everything perfect. The tailored experiences are just fabulous and they both took our stay from amazing to something purely magical. The house itself is nestled on a perfectly manicured landscape with view of the Mitchell River that’s unforgettable! The infinity pool was very clean, warm and welcoming. All our guests had their own space with multiple dining rooms, seating areas and bedrooms set up to our required sleeping arrangements. The library is a winner baby… it has two comfortable sofa beds and an adjoining ensuite, if you are wondering if the sofa beds are appropriate or comfortable, they absolutely are! In fact, I will be asking Andrea where she got them from as my father in law is 73 with a bad hip and he was so comfortable. Finally a regional stay with the right Technology! We had reception, fast WIFI and sexy Bose speakers and smart TV’s throughout. Don’t bring anything! That was our big mistake… They seriously have everything you need… just bring food and drinks as everything is fitted out perfectly, we had a fabulous roast dinner one night and realised we forgot flour for the gravy, after a few wines we weren’t able to get to the shops and cheeky us messaged Andrea - without hesitation Andrea dropped some around for us. I could go on for hours but all you need to know is it’s time for you to stop reading, bite the bullet and book! If we all have learnt anything in the last two years it’s that life is too short to procrastinate so when Andrea suggests booking the private dinner and helicopter ride (their other business) don’t hesitate, you won’t regret it as both are unforgettable and worth every cent and more! We will return again soon. Thanks again LaRiva

Such a beautiful and lovely place, We will definitely go back and stay longer, sparkling clean, helpful host and great location.Thank you Andrea

Definitely recommended! Great place to stay, very luxurious, wonderful hospitality by Andrea.

La Riva House. This breathtaking homestead on 7 acres, with magnificent views from every room. From the moment you enter the driveway you are drawn in by the gorgeous canopy of English and natives trees, manicured lawns and glorious garden. Then you arrive up the sweeping driveway to the opulent sandstone house. Inside is an array of stunning bedrooms and lovely sitting areas, where you can read a book or play chess or just admire the views to the Mitchell River. Hosts Andrea and Dave are exceptional people who welcome you with open arms and are truly the most hospitable people you could ever meet. So much to do, long walks, helicopter ride in Dave’s own helicopter taking in the breathtaking view above swim in the gorgeous infinity pool eat out or in with your own personal chief or just relax. Thoroughly recommend a stay at this incredible property

Fantastic location great ammenities and the most fantastic hosts. Couldn’t recommend this place more highly. Great for a weekend escape sleeping up to 10 people in the most comfortable rooms. Conference Yoga retreat Suitable for gathering of any sort. Thanks again La Riva for the most enjoyable experience.

Absolute perfection. I've just returned from 3 amazing days at La Riva on a business retreat. This home and the gardens and the pool and everything is so beautifully set out but actually it's the little things that I found the most special. Andrea has thought of everything and from the minute you arrive, you feel so welcome. I found Andrea to be the most warm and friendly host and we were fortunate that she could spend time with our group. I felt like a welcome guest in her home and I could not recommend this property highly enough. Thank you Andrea, our stay was perfect.

Such a beautiful and lovely place. We will definitely go back and stay longer, sparkling clean, helpful host and great location. Thank you Andrea.
