Perfect for our weekend stay

The property is very large with 5 large bedrooms so could easily accommodate 5 couples or a large family with kids etc. and all rooms had their own AC. The entertainment areas were also very large as was the kitchen. The back grassed area backs onto the river with a jetty available (we didn’t use it) and has a bbq area too. It also has a nice small pool. The house is an older style but is well presented and has all you need for a comfortable stay. The host was also very responsive even helping me navigate the booking app as I had not done that before!

Perfect family staycation

The house is very spacious, clean and tidy. We loved the big kitchen, and the seperate areas of the house to chill out, and jetty to throw a couple of crab nets in. Especially loved the pool too. It had everything to make our stay comfortable. Host Sonya is very responsive and checked in to see if we had settled in ok once we arrived, which was lovely. We will be back. Loved it!

Annual Weekend Hetaway.

We five guys aged 70 plus have been meeting there for seven years and loving it. We put dropnets in at the private jetty and sit on the back veranda having afternoon drinks with the beautiful outlook on the Murray River. A grassy flat with shady trees leads to the river which has a multitude of river traffic and therefore providing a splendid and relaxing scene. As evening draws on we barbecue our dinner whilst watching and listening to the passing party boats on the Murray. An excellently equipped house and I strongly recommend a stay.

Great location and house suited our large family group perfectly. An older home as mentioned but large and comfortable. Kids loved the pool and handy having the jetty to tie up a boat. Would happily stay here again.

Great Family Christmas

Myself, my family, our friends and their family stayed here over Christmas and what an absolute joy it was! We were delighted to see that Sonya had already set up a Christmas tree for us. The property is huge and has everything you need, conveniently situated right on the Murray river where the kids would go look at the crabs every morning. We were even fortunate enough to wave at Santa going down the river on Christmas Eve. The property itself is great and has endless amount of things to entertain the kids, from the pool to the board games, foosball table, piano and we even got to roast marshmallows over the fire pit. Overall we were thoroughly impressed with the stay and would 100% book again! Thank you so much for accommodating us and our dogs Sonya! ❤️

About the host

Hosted by Sonya

Host profile image
Ken and I have been hosting guests at "Paradise on the Murray" for many years and many of our guests return year after year. As well as being property owners we also travel and rent holiday homes ourselves so we are able to relate with your expectations as a holiday maker. We strive to ensure that each and every one of our guests feels welcome and enjoys their stay.

Why they chose this property

This home is a very special place for our family as it is our escape from the hustle and bustle of day to day life. The river is beautiful and to walk through the property and discover the hidden "paradise" with the parkland reserve and the river is mood changing.

What makes this property unique

Yes, you can rent homes on the canals, but they can't be compared to being right on the actual river itself!! Especially since you can launch your boat and then tie it up at our dedicated private jetty at the rear of the house. Abundance of space to relax and Pool is an extra bonus! You got to get there to truly appreciate why it feels like "Paradise"
