The communal spaces are great and were perfect for our big family gathering. We used the BBQ every night and the big dinning table was perfect for family meals all together. We have a few issues with refrigeration but the staff dealt with things quickly. The few other problems were again attended to by friendly attentive staff. The kitchen is well stocked and the outdoor lounging area around the pool was so relaxing.

Couldn't believe the size of the place! We had 10 people in total but felt like we could have had 10 more. Great location a short taxi ride away from Surfers, water pressure very good (nothing ruins a holiday like a crud shower), overall very impressed and dare say we will be back!

We could not be happier with our stay, the house was presented to us perfectly and the location was better than we thought. to be sitting on the balcony watching the sun set over the river was amazing. Five Stars

We loved River Magic. The house accommodated 14 of us well and in comfort. The views are magical indeed and the location very handy. The greatest disappointment was the pool. First it was not clean from the day we received the house but more than that, our six kids love the pool and were looking forward to it but unfortunately we found it absolutely freezing - and the kids are used to cold water. This did put damper on the holiday and we would suggest that due to the position of the pool (shaded by the upper deck) solar heating is a must, otherwise, if you come with kids who love the pool, well this may not be your house, however beautiful the house is... Also it would have been good to have instruction for the digital oven, it took us some time to work it out as to work out how the light system works. But overall we loved the villa and our stay was pleasant.

We enjoyed all the facilities provided during our stay.

We stayed there for 5 nights but we wish we can stay for another 5 nights or more! We love the house design, it gives us home like feeling. The movie room, swimming pool and pool table are especially welcomed by children. We all enjoy so much preparing the meals in the modern kitchen. You can't forget the gorgeous view of the main river, no matter from sunrise to sunset, it is absolutely stunning. This house is also suitable for elderly, even it has more stairs but they can choose the room which is more closer to the kitchen/ sitting, dining area. The location is excellent too. It takes few minutes drive to supermarket, restaurants and even the beach. We have no doubt to visit this house again next year with my family and friends. We also hired the chef service on the first day of our arrival, you don't need to worry even after a long flight. Ms Kristie Seeger, the chef, she is very caring and patience to tailor made the best menu for the kids and the elderly. We appreciate so much!

This is really the ideal property! The house is amazing, the views are amazing and it is a short walk to everything. Though the house is huge and everyone gets their own space, the living design keeps everyone connected. The stay was that good, that we have decided to (try) make the trip up each year. Highly recommend. Thank you for the enjoyable stay, we all loved it!
