We enjoyed our stay. Our apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed for our week long stay. Great location with excellent restaurants, cafes and the beach within easy walking distance. The apartment we had was clean and tidy but is due for a full deep clean. Would stay here again.

The private roof top was excellent

8/10 Very good

I stayed here for about a week and chose this place because it had cooking facilities. I found it very convenient, with shops nearby and everything I needed to cook and do laundry, which was great. The facilities aren’t new, but they are clean and functional, so it met my needs perfectly.

Lovely spot for a short break

Great position with short walk to the wharf and other takeaways nearby. Unit had a lovely lookout to the river and sea entrance. Pool was good and a neatly kept garden. Unit itself was looking a bit tired though however , very comfortable. Enjoyed our stay.

10/10 Exceptional

A lovely apartment, clean and quiet just 5 minutes walk to the main shops and beach of Mooloolaba. The view of the river from the balcony was lovely, the building and street were quiet, and yet just a short walk to be in the heart of everything .. the perfect balance!
Jacqueline, 3-night trip

Well maintained property with everything you'll need within an easy walk. Tucked away by the river so not much noise to keep you awake. Staff were friendly. Fantastic

The property was very well located. Very close to dining, shopping, etc. walkable to every service you need…the apartment had everything you needed.

I have stayed at the Riva twice now and have found the two bedroom two bathroom apartments to be perfect for two couples. The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils etc .The dining and living areas are spacious. The managers are helpful and very responsive.

Would recommend

Good sized apartment. Lovely view. Short walk to the beach and multiple coffee shops/places to eat. Clean. Bed was a little soft. Overall would recommend
Hannah, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property was in an excellent position, walking distance to shops and take aways. The bed was comfortable, staff friendly and very helpful. There was a starter pack provided consisting of tea and coffee, salt and pepper, paper towel, detergents,fly spray and a lot more. The only downside was the parking- very small spaces and very low. Not nearly enough room for bigger vehicles.
Susan, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Bed was too soft. Kitchen could have been better equiped. Didn’t have a jug to put water into fridge. Only supplies 4 coffee sachets for a 2 night stay. Building quite old. All windows quite corroded and difficult to open and shut. Our door didn’t self close and had to be vigilant that the unit did lock when leaving. Had a great stay regardless. Out second time there and probably not the last.
Kathy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good
