- David (10/5): Wonderful stay in beautiful location and accommodation - Beautiful accommodation and very stylish. Lovely surroundings on great location Nothing
- Gerard Anthony (9/5): Great Staycation - New, clean and modern accommodation. Unique garden.
Friendly host. Easy check-in procedure. Short drives to places of interest and eateries. We stayed for 2 nights, would appreciate a change of towels and top up of amenities, and the hairdryer was a little sticky to hold.
- Carsten (10/5): - Ein traumhafter Garten und die Vermietet waren sehr nett und total unkompliziert
- Greg S (10/5): - Privacy
- Richard (10/5): Fantastic Stay at a lovely property - Everything was perfect at River Retreats, from the welcome from Jess to the fantastic room and feeling we got from our stay. Everything in the room was of a high standard, and so peaceful, yet just a few minutes away from the lovely town by car.
- Irene (8/5): Schön und gut für 2 Nächte - Sehr schönes Apartment und groß genug für Reisende.
Nette Begrüßung von Jess Etwas kleinlich mit der Einrichtung der Küche und Bad.
Je 1 Glas, Teller……
Der Fernseher war so klein oder so weit weg, dass wir doch lieber mit dem iPad tv schauten.
Wir mussten nachfragen damit die Handtücher ausgewechselt wurden, oder wir mehr Kaffee oder Duschmittel bekommen.
Leider auch kein laundry Service.
- Sandrine (10/5): Étape obligatoire à Kalbarri ! - Le calme, la literie, la salle de bain, le matériel présent dans la cuisine, la gentillesse et la disponibilité de Jess, l’extérieur exceptionnel, le logement est moderne et bien disposé, spacieux… nous avons tout aimé ! A l’écart du centre-ville nous avons pu y découvrir un ciel exceptionnel. Rien, nous reviendrions avec grand plaisir !

- Suzanne (8/5): Quiet gem in Kalbarri - Great location, quiet and well appointed, with loads of space and a beautiful outlook. The double bed and the pillows. Definitely have space for a queen or king size bed especially for people over 6ft tall.
The pillows need to be of a higher quality.
- Manning (10/5): -
- Russell (10/5): Highly recommend this beautiful accommodation. - Beautiful big room with everything you need.

- Emilee (10/5): Exceptional -
- Byron (10/5): Absolutely beautiful location, comfortable and relaxing. - Great location only a couple minutes drive to get into town, beautiful view of the national park, great design building and very comfortable. I would have loved to have a gas stove in the room for cooking.
- Gary (9/5): Wonderful Out of Town Stay - We loved that it was a quiet, unique stay out of town with a big, yard..The washroom was fantastic being spacious, having both rain showers & a soaker tub.The patio is large & well equipped with BBQ, comfy loveseat, along with shared table & dipping pool. Great stay! Nothing
- Christine (7/5): New accommodation option with budget fit out - It was clean and tidy. Furniture was new, however lower quality. Bed was a double, not a large double. There’s nothing within walking distance from the accommodation.
We would have loved to spend some time in the pool but there is no shaded area near or around the pool and no pool chairs/ outdoor furniture to enjoy the area and stay out of the sun. The pool is also a few meters from the owners/caretakers family dining/ living area of their home so it’s a little uncomfortable when using the pool.
- Beverley (10/5): Beyond our expectations. - Everything.
Jess was very welcoming. The room and bathroom are very modern. An absolute gem of a find. Nothing to dislike.
- Brian (10/5): Great location, comfortable accommodations and hosts were friendly and helpful - Location was great and Jess was helpful in pointing us to activities in the National Park, sunset in Maneera and downtown activities
- Amanda (9/5): Simply stunning. - The location is just perfect, as is the property and views. A few kitchen utilities would have been helpful. A glass jug and microwave dishes. A can opener, small chopping knives, and kitchen scissors. Just a few suggestions.
- Reeve (10/5): Exceptional -
- Justin (10/5): Exceptional - I liked everything about the place.
- Chloe (9/5): Superb -

- Isabella (9/5): Superb -
- Ulrike (10/5): Exceptional - A nice quiet place to relax and discover the Kalbarri National Park.
- Gazbert (10/5): What a find! - Our total experience was beyond our expectations.
Jess & Jeff were great hosts and had a great place to base ourselves whilst exploring Kalbarri. What wasn't to like about should be the question.
Great host's 👍
Great location👍
Modern facilities👍
Interest property to explore and relax in👍
- Nina (10/5): Fantastic and worth the visit! - The hosts were welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable about the region. They gave us a sunset viewing tip which was fantastic. What a view of the whole of Kalbarri! We would visit again and stay with our hosts.
- Nina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Donna (10/5): Accommodation of a very high standard in a quiet location with great hosts. - Our stay at the Kalbarri River Retreats was very enjoyable. The location near town but in a quiet area meant a great night's sleep. The accommodation is of a very high standard and exceeded our expectations. The bath was lovely after a hard day's bushwalking. Jess was a great host and a minefield of information. Would be very happy to stay again when in Kalbarri. Nothing to dislike about the River Retreats.

- Lindy (9/5): A little oasis in Kalbarri - A beautiful studio room with basic kitchen equipment but a BBQ for private use.
The bathroom was extremely spacious with a separate bath and shower! it was exceptionally clean and was decorated
beautifully with nick knacks and artwork. The garden area was spacious and had some very funky artwork in it. We didn't get around to using the pool, but it looked sparkling clean. It is out of town so you need a car but I liked the quiet away from the main tourist area. The host was fabulous! We would book again. :)
- Milton (7/5): Good -
- Adam (8/5): Wonderful! - Wonderful small studio for chilled out relaxing and decent location for national parks. A bit far from town meant we missed out on some pubs. Owner pleasant but would be full on for someone with anxiety.
- Stephanie (10/5): We would definitely stay there again next time we visit the area. - River Retreats property was spacious, beautifully decorated (loved all the pelican details dotted around!) and immaculately clean. There was a huge bathroom with walk-in shower plus a large bathtub. The kitchen had everything we needed for our short stay. Thank you Jess for the friendly welcome on our arrival and for making everything so lovely! There wasn’t anything we disliked.
- Rachel (9/5): Delightful - Beautifully presented and well thought out studio apartment. Near enough to town to access facilities but far enough away to feel away from it all. The hosts were delightful. Nothing
- Jenny (10/5): Great location; beautiful presented, spotlessly clean studio and perfect hosts. - This stunning property not far from Kalbarri was a perfect place for our 40th wedding anniversary. It was an easy cycle into town and then along the river and to the spectacular ocean beaches. A great place to experience sunrises and sunsets, either at the property, at the nearby lookout or at the gorges. Jess and Jeff are ideal hosts - friendly and responsive at the same time as allowing privacy. Highly recommend. Nothing
- Raewyn (9/5): Superb - Loved the setting and how well appointed the room was. Exceptionally clean. (Photos of the garden and property setting don't do it justice. The outlook is really beautiful). Paper thin walls! It was a real disappointment to be in such a peaceful location and not get a restful night's sleep due to our neighbours' restlessness, who
weren't "noisy" per se, but you could just hear everything!
- Robyn (10/5): Would definitely recommend for a couple who won’t a quiet getaway - Great to be away from the town.
Big comfortable room with large bathroom.
Ideal for a couple. A place to hang wet bathers and towels.
- Judy (10/5): Fabulous - Everything. Well presented. Everything that you needed. Great host. Would highly recommend to others.
- Louise (9/5): It was very relaxing, beautiful location and very clean -
- Tim (9/5): Superb -
- Katerina (10/5): Quiet, cosy and comfortable - Beautifully designed unit that makes for a very comfortable stay. Wonderful quiet location, very safe and private.
- Marilee (10/5): Perfectly lovely! - So lovely! The flies but that was no fault of the owner just the season
- Gary (10/5): Relaxing stay in a beautiful retreat. - Beautiful retreat in a serene setting on the outskirts of Kalbarri. It was perfect for a few days…nothing not to like.
- Jennifer (10/5): Loved the - Breakfast not provided but we knew that - not a problem. The accommodation provided by
Jess and Jeff was outstanding, with a view over the quirky garden - very interesting !! We had done
a little research as to what we should go and see and Jess was an expert in making ideas for some
additional places to go - these were great, right down to The Upstairs Restaurant for dinner! The wind and the flies but good screens kept the little devils out and I guess you can’t
do anything about the weather - It is WA in Autumn after all!!
- Helen (9/5): Superb -
- Suzanne (10/5): Exceptional - Was ultra comfortable. Very contemporary and owners were very friendly.

A very comfy stay and very relaxing. No issues

- Robert (10/5): A perfect stay in an exceptional property! - Absolutely stunning property. The suites are huge - beautifully furnished and equipped. Jess and Jeff are the nicest hosts - extremely friendly and very helpful and informative. The accommodation is private and peaceful - we loved the evenings spent star gazing with a glass of wine! There is so much eclectic and quirky artwork to explore around the gardens too. We highly recommend River Retreats Kalbarri and can't wait to return. Thank you Jess and Jeff for a splendid stay!

- Jennifer (9/5): Great hosts and accommodation is beautiful and in a lovely quiet location. Would definitely recommend to friends and sta - Great hosts and situated in a perfect quiet location. Accommodation is beautiful and extremely clean. Would definitely recommend to friends and stay again in the future. Would be perfect if there were some bbq utensils to use and possibly a single cooktop to help when preparing your own dinners.
- Marwan (9/5): River Retreats was the perfect little getaway! Thank you Jess for hosting us! -
- Nicole (10/5): Peaceful and relaxing - Everything about the accommodation was perfect! The peaceful environment, the location, our room we stayed in and the facilities. We loved how we were surrounded by nature and how peaceful and relaxing it was. Definitely the best accommodation we have stayed in so far and will 100% be back! (: Nothing, everything was perfect.
- Khatuna (7/5): Good - It has really nice garden, every details there are done with love. A room itself was very clean and also decorated nicely The walls are very thin and you can hear everything from the other room, this is the one of the reason why we won’t come back there. Also you can’t cook there
