Imagine Your Stay ...


- Wow!!! From the relaxed drive to Eagle Point to being welcomed by Andrea and David our hosts on arrival. Entering this estate was breathtaking throughout our stay we were overwhelmed by the sheer beauty, everything was perfect from the building and it’s lay out to all that was available in the butlers panty, dinning, sitting under the stars and the Infinity pool so much more to mention. We did not need to leave but wait there’s more, let’s take a short drive my wife informed me!!! To a helicopter ride to view what this amazing town and surroundings have to offer, by who else our host David, he’s a pilot also. Luv it we will be back with family and friends 💕read moreread lessPaul M.29/03/2021Definitely recommended! Great place to stay, very luxurious, wonderful hospitality by Andrea.read moreread lessPatrick21/11/2021
Stunning and relaxing at the same time. We celebrated a significant birthday for my wife with family and friends and could not have been happier with the experience. During the booking process Andrea was brilliant in making invaluable suggestions to make our weekend even better. We went with massages, a cruise up the Mitchell River and the private chef.It could not have run smoother thanks to David and Andrea. Thank you so much it was brilliant.

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 the 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 La Riva.read moreread lessChristopher M.13/10/2022Think of what you expect from an Airbnb, make it 5 times better. The attention to the details drove me crazyyyy, everything is so well thought out from the heated infinity pool to the garden to the rooms. Omg, that kitchen equipment.... I wanna be the chef of this house! Oh that truffle oil in the kitchen brought tears to my eyes. The place is suitable for so many different occasions. Vogue better find out about this place and immiediately do a shoot with a star. It is that good in my opinion! Wanna go back as soon as possible. yyaaaas!read moreread lessUzhanicek13/10/2021Fantastic location great ammenities and the most fantastic hosts. Couldn’t recommend this place more highly.

- 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.read moreread lessDanielle03/01/2021
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.
read moreread lessErika M.29/03/2022Excellent 5 star accommodation in a relaxing location. Andrea was very attentive to my requests, and as a busy professional & discerning traveller who, during Christmas 22, travelled with my family to LaRiva, we were very satisfied. The venue ticked all our boxes and was a perfect base for me to visit family, recharge, and plan our next part of our summer holiday. Cudos to Andrea & David for having a vision and staying true to its purpose. We will be back.read moreread lessPaul J.13/01/2023
