This house and hosts are amazing. There are little treats thrown in to the price, yum yum. Compliments to the chef on breakfast. It is a quiet setting, where you... read more can pretend to be Lord, and Lady of the Manor. Attention to detail, and cleanliness, were abundant. Thanks Meryl, and Phil for the great stay.
Thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay at Bli Bli House. The room was spacious and cosy; the deck and view of the river were lovely; the amenities and little extras... read more provided were wonderful.
We were delighted by our stay.
Such a lovely peaceful stay at Bli Bli House. Luxury and elegance at its best, with wonderful hosts. We loved the period furnishings , the bed was so comfortable... read more and having a lovely cooked breakfast on your private veranda to top it off, wow.
We will definitely be back
One of the most amazing places we have ever stayed at. Victorian elegance and charm at its best.
Ambient & spacious bedroom and bathroom with private balcony... read more overlooking the beautifully landscaped grounds & river.
Plush hallways and other cosy sitting areas provide many options to relax and relish the experience whilst enjoying the coffee, tea, pastries and fudge supplied in abundance.
The included breakfast was scrumptious, ample and served with class.
Phil and Merryl were the consummate hosts and couldn't have done more to make our stay so enjoyable.
We can't recommend Bli Bli House enough and will definitely stay for longer next time!!
My husband booked an overnight stay at the Bli Bli House for my 50th birthday weekend. Coming up from Brisbane, we paired the stay at this beautiful accommodation with reservations... read more at the equally gorgeous Spirit House restaurant the next day, which is a mere 15-minute drive away. From start to finish, I felt so relaxed and pampered at the Bli Bli House. We stayed in the Heritage Suite, which is absolutely beautiful with its four-poster bed, fireplace and seating area, spa bathtub, and - most charmingly - its own veranda with seating for reading plus table and chairs for dining. We loved feeling tucked away in this beautiful room with its private outdoor space for the duration of our stay. Our hosts, Phil and Merryl, did everything they could to ensure a 5-star experience for us. Knowing it was a special birthday for me, they gave us a bottle of wine and brought us strawberries and chocolate later that evening. The following morning, our pre-ordered breakfast arrived on a cart outside our door with everything served in silver. It felt so lush, luxurious, and 'old world' as we ate our breakfast on the veranda. I have lived in Australia for ten years (I'm originally from the US) and have honestly never experienced this level of thoughtful hospitality and service at another establishment. I was impressed and would highly recommend this incredible oasis of luxury to anyone - but especially to... My husband booked an overnight stay at the Bli Bli House for my 50th birthday weekend.

As a fan of period piece films set in the 19th and early 20th centuries, I truly felt transported to another time and place. My husband and I definitely plan on returning when we can. Thanks a million, Phil and Merryl, for helping to make my 50th birthday a memorable one. More
We had the very good fortune to find Bli Bli House Riverside Retreat online and stayed spontaneously overnight in July 2022. Wow ! What a wonderful experience it was.... read more A warm welcome from Meryl and consummate attention paid to every detail. An absolutely beautiful location on the riverside adds additional joy to a fantastic stay. Wonderful morning breakfast brought to our room and the broader amenities were well beyond our expectation. Comfy warm bed, and room the amenities, large outside balcony and space are outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We have booked already for a future weekend stay and looking forward to it. Highly recommended.
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
Bli Bli House is perfectly placed between the beach and the hinterland but that is not what makes it so special. It’s is the little things provided by the hosts... read more that make it a must. Strawberries and chocolate on arrival, a complimentary lolly and cake stand with tea and ground coffee, a cooked to order breakfast and more. The room with a four-poster bed as the focus was beautiful as was the entire house - tastefully decorated throughout and positioned on the riverbank.
Nothing more could be asked. We will go again and already have recommended it highly to friends and family.
We stayed with our hosts, Merryl and Phil at Bli Bli house for several months. Breakfasts were nothing short of splendid, always cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. We were... read more treated as valued guests where nothing was too much trouble and where we were transported back to a time where good conversation and company could be enjoyed. The convenience of the coffee machine, fridge and microwave in the room were supplemented by complimentary cakes, chocolates and other treats. Thank you for a wonderful stay where we were able to recharge in a quiet location with river views.
Phil and Meryl have done a fabulous job fitting the Decore to the heritage of Bli Bli house
Comfortable and very pleasing to look at but the standout was the... read more welcome and hospitality.
