We had a wonderful five nights at Villa Riviera with four adults and our Labrador. The river is right out the front of the apartment and it was so peaceful sitting there for breakfast and dinner seeing the fish and dolphins swimming nearby.
Richo was incredibly helpful to deal with and made everything so easy. Would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

Loved our stay .. so did Gypsy the Jack Russell. So many thoughtful inclusions from ice in the freezer, lots of condiments, well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, bait and fishing rods !!. Beautiful location. Evening visitation from a family of dolphins. Thanks Richard, good of you to organise. If I had to choose what I would like to see included it would be a cheap hairdryer. We have no hesitation in recommending. Will return.

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Riviera. This is a lovely apartment, tastefully decorated with attention to detail.
The Villa location an excellent , in a quiet complex on a quiet street with the Richmond River at its back door. The apartment has a fully equipped kitchen with thoughtful additions such as oils and condiments .
We had only an overnight stay and the location was so convenient for access to the river, the beaches and places to eat but next time I would love to stay longer and explore the beautiful Ballina area in more detail. This apartment would really suit a stay of several days or a week so that one could spend an evening two enjoying a glass of wine and a cheese platter on the deck looking out over the river.

This house was superbly furnished with everything we needed, even herbs and sauces which were a lovely touch. We loved being able to fish straight off the back deck and enjoy the view of the river

Suited us for a family get together. It was very clean. Had everything we needed. Lovely views. Didn't need heating as it was quite warm for winter. Beds were comfy. Couldn't ask for more. 3min Uber ride to most restaurants. A+

Not sure why but I expected this property to be a free standing house but i would probably call it a block of flats so initially I was a bit surprised.
If looking for privacy it is not ideal but having said that I was over all very impressed with the property and would absolutely use it again.
Very clean and tidy. I have no criticism of it at all. Very nicely decorated and magnificent view from master bedroom, safe parking and friendly but not intrusive neighbors
