    And if it is a slice of heaven then the angles that are sent to look after such a beautiful place are just as special. Phil and Merryl went above and beyond to makes welcomed. We both felt honoured to be there.

    The best part of our stay was the look on my partners face when she saw our room. I will forever hold onto that memory.

    Thankyou very much Phil and Merryl.

But ofcourse that isn’t fair to... read more the wonderful hosts of Bli Bli House, Phil & Merryl. I can not fault this place. Everything from the warm friendly welcome from the hosts to the the exquisite rooms, beautiful gardens and delicious breakfasts.

The billiards table upstairs got a workout (just watch your head!) we can’t wait to return. Thank you Phil & Merryl. We will be back again.. and again. More

  • star rating  We have stayed at many hotels and B&Bs all over the world, and without doubt Bli Bli House ranks amongst the best. We had no idea what awaited us... read more as our accommodation had been booked last minute on our behalf. It was a very pleasant surprise from start to finish, with unexpected thoughtful touches all throughout our stay. Our room was beautifully clean and the breakfast (which arrived at our door on time) was wonderful. The location is very convenient and we enjoyed exploring the grounds and new boardwalk along the river. Our only issue was a bit of traffic noise, but other rooms probably did not experience that to the same degree. Highly recommended, and we would stay there again. More
