Around the Coast

  Thank you Meryl and Phil for making our stay a truly memorable one.
You welcomed us and our dearest friends into your home and looked after all of our... read more needs and then more.
The gardens and surrounding area is so enjoyable and peaceful and Bli Bli house is just amazing. We will certainly be recommending it to friends and family.

  The location, the style, the room, the compliments and the hospitality. This one of the best stays we've had in Queensland in a long time. The decor is divine, furnished... read more and designed to resemble a victorian property sending you back in time to relax and unwind. Phil and Merryl are fantastic. Merryl gave us a lovely warm welcome telling us the history of the house and even a couple of treats from the sweets cart. We had a beautiful spacious room, very comfortable bed, a large veranda overlooking the river and a nice hot spa bath.

Breakfast was delicious, we will definitely be back longer than one night. The perfect place for a romantic getaway. Thank you.

  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 a wonderful two night stay in the Kensington room. This place is beautiful. Attention to detail. So clean and welcoming. All the little extras you get make you... read more go wow.
The hot/cold breakfast included is scrumptious. Came home the first night to find dipping chocolates and chocolates on a beautiful tray outside our door . Everything you need in your rooms plus more in the communal area.
Definitely a place to experience and stay.

  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
