Guest Reviews

• Wendy (10/5): Hideaway B&B - Relaxed & cosy b&b. Neale was very accommodating and made you feel at home with all his goodies. Needed more time to appreciate the tranquil garden and wildlife. Everything was good.

• Mccasker (3/5): Ok - The photo advertising the property was nothing like we had. Our breakfast was in the laundry no table or chairs to eat our food no sharp knife could not even cut a tomato no ice cereal stale table outside was dirty and could not eat out there because of the mosquitoes Bed v comfortable not sure where the grassy slopes were as in the picture.
• Julie (10/5): Amazing B & B - This B&B is exceptional. So many extras provided and extremely comfortable. The host Neale is very welcoming. We highly recommend this amazing accomodation.
• Kathleen (10/5): Real relaxation, comfort and care at River Gum... - Exceeded all my expectations! Beautiful location, attentive hosts, clean, quiet, with lovely touches that made the stay next-level.
• Christina (10/5): Vi blev budt velkommen af værten, og vi var meget overrasket over stedet. Meget værdi for pengene, og mega lækkert med m - Helt fantastisk sted væk fra larm og støj
• Kathryn (10/5): Beautiful Luxury Stay - The property felt very lux. The super king bed was sooo comfortable and perfect pillows x 4. Lovely apartment that was very welcoming. You honestly couldn't wish for better. Every small thing was thought of even a torch on each bedside dresser. Washing machine, dryer, microwave, fridge etc. we appreciated the variety of yoghurt, cheese board & Crackers, cereals, porridge, fruit, orange juice, milk, crunchy top sourdough, butter, jam, honey and of course the whipped cream for the most delectable chocolate brownie you will ever eat! A selection of teas and coffees as well. Was a great find for us. We will be back. Thank you to Neale the host. Nothing
• Wendy (10/5): - Luxury bed
• Patrick (10/5): Perfect for a couple although next time I’ll stay longer. - It was everything the owners promised. They couldn’t have done more to make our stay enjoyable. We drove down for a birthday party and told everyone to book here next time they come to the Sunshine Coast. . The breakfasts are brilliant. Can not recommend highly enough. There is nothing to dislike. Even the neighbourhood is a delight.
• Ali (10/5): It would be good if we had a small cooktop -
• Boston (9/5): -
• Stephanie (10/5): The comfort and luxury made it hard for us to leave. - The decor, location, quietness, the facilities, the air conditioning, the bed. Nothing
• Charlene (10/5): The perfect stay for some much needed R&R 💜 - Neale has created a perfect space and thought of everything you could possibly need creating a very personalised and memorable experience. From the array of breakfast options to the delicious home made brownies and cream, to the beautiful and comfortable furnishings and incredibly large bath and clean amenities I could not have asked for a better place to stay for some much needed rest. Not a thing, everything was wonderful.
• Kaye (10/5): Stylish retreat - Loved it. We felt completely spoilt with luxurious bed linens, beautiful decor and a generous breakfast plus extra treats. Neale was the perfect host who made himself known and then left us to enjoy our stay. Wished we could have stayed longer. Nothing - although the addition of wifi would have made the stay 10++
• giorgia (10/5): Perfect cozy stay in the Sunshine Coast - Perfect stay near the Sunshine Coast in a quiet and peaceful area. I was greeted by a smiling and kind Neale and provided with LOTS of treats such as freshly baked chocolate brownies and cheese and bread and fruit and so on. Plus, the location is perfect, just 10 min drive from Sunshine Coast airport and to the beach. Room is very spacious and you have a kitchenette and a big bathroom. Cleanliness is spotless. I will be back!
• Anne (10/5): - Closeness to beaches and hinterland etc. Great for a central quiet location. Nil.
• Rene (9/5): Comfortable stay, and value for money - The serenity of the place and feels like home Just wishing there is wifi
• Tualau (10/5): Amazing stay great spot if you’re looking for a nice relaxing place down time! -
• Mykhailo (9/5): - Neale is a wonderful host, he treated us with strawberries, home-made brownies with fresh whipped cream. Delicious :) The suite was clean and spacious with a terrace to have breakfast on. All in all, we enjoyed our stay at Neale's place! We'd have liked to have a stove
• Gina (10/5): Lovely quiet piece of paradise! - Quiet, lovely garden outlook from room.
• Jordan (10/5): Very cute and cosy! -
• abell (10/5): - Absolute fabulous place ticks all the boxes!
• Parlevliet (10/5): Just fantastic. Bed was comfy too - Quiet and clean. Host was fantastic. Cheese platter and brownies yumm. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. Detail to extras so good! Thank you
• Buchanan (7/5): On the whole I enjoyed my time with this B and B - The bed was very comfortable which is always important for one to relax which should be the aim of hospitality. A peaceful location plenty of wild life sounds. Over all a pleasent place to stay. Un fortunately with many places in our climate suffer from lingering air conditioning smells of past body odour that get traped in fabrics can be offensive. Not have some basic food prep needs and having to run from one room to another to organise the food.
• Sharon (8/5): -
• James (10/5): Peaceful getaway - Our stay was great. Breakfast was amazing with such a huge amount and variety. Everything we needed was there and the owners were extremely accommodating. Close to restaurants and shops but far enough that you don’t feel in the hustle and bustle.
• Frank (10/5): Great place - The location The comfort and service we will go back and tell our friends about it it's a peaceful place to stay I give 110% Nothing not to lke
• Mark (9/5): Superb - Comfy, great bed and pillow. Thanks for the cake A long way to get a meal with no transport
• Nicholas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Bradley (10/5): Peaceful, relaxing stay. - Me and my partner had a lovely stay here. It’s in a beautiful and peaceful area and the room was very clean and had everything we needed. Would definitely stay here again!
• Tania (10/5): Great little place! - Beautiful place with everything we needed and more. Owners were so friendly and welcoming. Definitely returning in th future.
• Ioane (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gwendoline (10/5): My li’l home away from home. - This short stay at River Gum was perfect in every way. Neale was on site to welcome me into what quickly became my li’l home away from home with its secured private entry and exit. My space was thoroughly prepared and tastefully furnished with special touches like a well stocked fridge with healthy breakfast options including snacks. The bed was so comfortable that I slept like a baby. I also appreciated the small torch on each of the bedside tables. There was room to spread outside and unwind with outdoor seating and tables. I loved the quiet and peaceful ambience and hope to return someday. I would highly recommend River Gum Luxury Bed and Breakfast to anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable stay on the Sunshine Coast.

I truly enjoyed my stay here, thanks Neale!

• David (8/5): Very good -
• Angela (8/5): Very good -
• David (9/5): Superb -
• Julie (10/5): Great place to stay - look forward to next stay - Comfy king sized bed that had quality sheets & pillows. Liked that was separated & private. Was a bit hard to find but once you got there was worth the effort
• Kevin (10/5): Very comfortable in all respects. Host Neale really knows how to treat and respect his guests - The location is excellent amongst trees and natural growth. The accommodation is the best any traveller could wish for. Not applicable
• Geoff (8/5): Comfortable for a 1 night stop over. - The property was well appointed. It felt very luxurious except for the kitchen/laundry. Every thing you needed and more was there. We had an enjoyable 1 night stay. Personally don't like self check in; very impersonal...but this one went well and easy. The shower rose needs changing and the towels were old and stiff as a board. But every thing else was great.
• Ruairi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jashanjot (10/5): Exceptional -
• Strawb59 (10/5): Amazing B&B - Neale is a friendly and helpful host. The accommodation is absolutely beautiful and well stocked with all sorts of goodies. Will happily recommend and we shall definitely return. Our stay was too short.
• Murphy (9/5): very good - had a good stay
• Stewart (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
• Keithhockly (9/5): Comfortable, quiet studio - Neale is a great host and this is a great property with lots of thoughtful touches. We stayed in a tastefully decorated Deluxe King studio with a separate kitchenette, bathroom and toilet. There were ample continental breakfast provisions, cheese, chocolates, and a selection of teas and coffee bags. The bed was super comfortable and there was a washing machine and dryer in the kitchenette which was wonderful for us as we were on a road trip and had been travelling for a while. This is a great option for a budget-friendly luxurious Sunshine Coast stay if you have your own wheels.
• Lin (6/5): It was not the “luxury B&B” depicted in the photos. - Breakfast and treats were exceptional. Bed was very comfortable. The Street location was very difficult to locate. Suggestion would be for signage on the property. A bit off putting Finding a used facecloth left in the shower when we arrived was and a handkerchief or tissue under the bed. A bit disjointed with the bench jug and toaster in the laundry, with tub to wash the dishes in and the fridge and microwave in a wardrobe in the lounge area.
• Michael (10/5): Very peaceful and is close to all the local markets - The location was excellent and the breakfast was more than enough with plenty of surprise extras that we never expected, the staff were helpful and very friendly, the rooms were very clean, and we had a very pleasant three days stay. Can’t fault anything
• Richard (10/5): Exceptional -
• Geoff (9/5): Superb - A great location, friendly host, good communications and a comfy bed! I was travelling for work but couldn't find an iron. Maybe it was hidden in a cupboard...
• Craig (9/5): Superb -
• Stephen (10/5): Perfect weekend B&B - Great place and VERY good value for money. Would definitely stay again. Wonderful host. Everything provided for breakfast and a few snacks. Bed very comfortable. Nice furnishings.
• William (9/5): Superb - Very peaceful environment. Very well catered with excellent choice for Breakfasts Nothing - but a small dining table or "TV" dinner table would have been useful. I appreciate that there would be limited space.
• Clare (10/5): Exceptional -
• Renan (10/5): Pleasant and very well kept unit at a quiet location near Sunshine Coast's airport. - My partner and I stayed at River Gum for a single night. We arrived around 22:00 and left around 8:00 the following morning. The experience was great! We communicated well with the host, the place was very well kept, and you could notice the level of care the hosts take with it. We wanted a place near Sunshine Coast's airport, and River Gum was a perfect fit. You need a car to get there, but if you want to have some quiet time, it's a great place! The unit is attached to the main house and has its own separate code-locked entrance. For breakfast, the hosts leave some food around for you to eat at your convenience, including some fruits (apples and bananas in our case), crackers, cheese, bread, butter, jams, milk, single-use bags of cereal, and yogurt, among other things. We were quite happy with everything, but I wish there had been some cold water in the fridge when we arrived, as I was quite thirsty and like cold water. We got water from the sink. No negative points from our perspective. We would gladly stay there again and refer it to friends.
• Linda (9/5): Beautiful, spacious, private and well situated. - Spacious, clean, private and well put together with on site parking and excellent facilities. Welcoming host. Beautiful and convenient location.

• John (2/5): Wanted money back as soon as we got there - Poor poor andpoor Just disappointed not to the site of expectations
• John (8/5): Very good -
• Swaminathan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andy (7/5): Not able to fully appraise as we were in and out most of the time and had other priorities - Good selection but what was provided had to last for the 3 breakfasts Crockery etc would have been better in the "kitchen" area.
• Nina (10/5): Perfect for a weekend away or longer - Lovely quiet location with a nice outdoor setting to have your morning coffee or breakfast. Pretty decor and friendly, helpful hosts. Good selection of breakfast provisions, comfy bed and very clean, with plenty of space for two. I would definitely stay here again if I come up to the Sunshine Coast.
• Me015 (9/5): Adventure in the Sunshine Coast - There was a variety of foods for breakfast. The fruit was fresh and there was plenty of tea and coffee. The place was clean and tidy and you could sit outside and enjoy the views. Everything worked. I could not fault the place Nothing.
• Juliana (8/5): Very good -
• Dianne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Simon (10/5): Nicely furnished and spacious room, very peaceful location - Lovely quiet location. Nicely furnished and spacious room. Friendly and helpful hosts. They went out of their way to meet our request for non-feather pillows. Friendly dog. Bathroom was somewhat dated, although very clean and serviceable
• Mellissa (8/5): Very good - was nice place peaceful
• Tanya (3/5): Not recommended - More room than a standard hotel Thoughtful breakfast Location well out of town. Place smells of ratsak which is stored in kitchen cupboards. Fridge freezer frosted over. No kids allowed but there was the sound of kids having fun in the pool everyday during my stay. Need to wash dishes in laundry sink. Reviews don't reflect this place
• Marie (10/5): A really lovely option for a stay at the Coast sans the ocean view pricetag - The space is beautifully presented ... the breakfast and extra were plentiful and delicious. Bed was comfortable and the whole place was spotless and clean

• Angela (10/5): Quiet and Comfortable - Wonderful one night stay, comfortable king size bed for the best night’s sleep in tranquil surroundings. Enjoyed the complimentary cheese and biscuits, seated in the comfy lounge chairs (wasn’t warm enough to enjoy having al fresco). Generous continental breakfast supplies, gave us a choice on how to start our day. Wished we could have stayed longer. A little table and chairs to have breakfast at, would have been nice, but no big deal!
