Riviera Bed & Breakfast: French Chef & Sub-tropical Rainforest Retreat

Dining

A live-in French chef prepares a specialty breakfast each morning, including homemade sourdough, crepes, and quail eggs. The hotel also offers an authentic French high tea and outdoor campfire pancake breakfast for guests. Homemade jams from the property are available for purchase, and the chef can prepare a three-course dinner by reservation.

Rooms

Each room features distinct historical architecture and decor, with names like Monet, Parisian, Provincial, and Mediterranean. All accommodations include private balconies and garden views, with air conditioning and private bathrooms. The property's old-world charm is maintained through nostalgic furniture and decorations throughout.

Location & Nature

The hotel sits within a sub-tropical rainforest environment in Gilston, 20 minutes from Dreamworld and Wet 'n' Wild Water World. Guests observe tame parrots and kookaburras on the deck during breakfast, and kangaroos roam the property. Nerang National Park is a short drive away, offering hiking, kayaking, and other outdoor adventures.

Family & Children

Family rooms are available with baby safety gates, indoor play area, board games, and puzzles. The property provides babysitting services and special children's meals on request. A shallow-end swimming pool with pool toys and a fence around the pool ensures safe use for younger guests.

Wellness & Pet-Friendly

An outdoor salt-water swimming pool with pool views is available, along with a massage chair and on-site spa services. The hotel provides pet bowls and welcomes fully house-trained dogs, with nearby long walks from the property. Accessible parking, wheelchair access, and facilities for disabled guests are also offered.
